The cart started making weird noises and wasn’t running properly, about 3 months after service, I looked under the seat and couldn’t believe what I saw! The starter/generator motor ready to fall off, only one bolt was holding it on. How can you replace the drive belt and generator belt and not notice this? I suggest marking your old belts and have them placed on the floor of your cart, along with the old air filter, spark plug and anything else you pay to have replaced. They also charged $108 for a seat belt that was already there. You wouldn’t expect this from a reputable business! Beware!

Which is why I do my own routine maintenance. It's not hard.
