What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (non-compliant windshield) where injury has not yet been reported, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for potential occupant injury in a crash.

Plain-English summary

Hardkore Karts LLC is recalling certain model year 2009-2013 Club Car Precedent golf carts equipped with the street package. These vehicles were manufactured between July 1, 2013, and November 1, 2016. The recall involves 34 vehicles that do not have a vehicle identification number (VIN), a certification label, or a DOT-compliant windshield. As a result, these vehicles fail to comply with the certification requirements of 49 CFR Part 567.

The missing safety equipment poses a risk in the event of a crash. A non-compliant windshield may have an increased risk of occupant injury compared to a DOT-compliant, safety-glass windshield.

Hardkore Karts will notify owners and provide a VIN, the correct certification label, and install the correct windshield free of charge. The recall was planned to begin on March 7, 2016. Owners may contact Hardkore Karts customer service at 1-877-796-5501 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
