I believe the probability of being stranded by a dead battery is low if you take some proactive steps. Golf cart batteries will typically last about 4-5 years. You will get some warnings (slow to start) as it starts to fail. Preemptively replacing it at 4 years is not a bad idea. Subscribing to a golf cart rescue service is a good idea as they will bring you home in the unlikely event of a battery failure. I believe you are more likely to need their services because of a tire puncture than a dead battery.
