Since starting this thread many months ago, I have heard from a lot of folks like yourself who described problems with EZGO electric RXV carts. One person worked for a Seattle area country club who said the carts quit so often, they had to use a special tool to manually pull the pin so the carts could be towed. My personal RXV cart is now 3 and a half years old. During the first year EZGO replaced the four 12 volt Trojan batteries 5 separate times. This happened to many friends also. To put it mildly, EZGO had massive problems with the 12 volt Trojan batteries. In fact, EZGO no longer uses 12 volt Trojan batteries. Now, all new RXV carts come with four 12 volt batteries made by US Battery company. Last summer I changed batteries in my cart. I had six 8 volt Trojan batteries installed by EZGO which included a new battery tray, new cables, etc. That cost was not cheap, but I now have reliable batteries and the cart is operating like it was new. For anyone else who has the EZGO RXV electric cart, suggest changing to either six 8 volt batteries or eight 6-volt batteries. You will be much happier with the performance and increased range.
