Plain-English summary

Club Car Inc. is recalling certain 2010 model year Villager 2+2 Low-Speed Vehicles (LSVs) manufactured between April 14 and July 18, 2010. The recall involves 39 vehicles where the brake pedal may be missing a critical load-bearing weld between the brake arm and the pivot shaft.
