He stated that the problem was the way carts were used in The Villages and it was our problem and not Yamaha's.

All carts on the floor had the orginal clutches. When I said that I heard that the Ocala dealership was installing the "all terrain clutch" the salesman did an about face and said they would replace orginal clutches free before delivery if customers insisted. Go figure. A hidden recall situation, just like the auto makers?? A real honest salesperson. Really want to trust him??

Tomorrow I'm off to Ocala to see what they have to offer.
I have a 2013 EFI that I bought from Carts n Clubs in Ocala. I bought it in late November 2012 & have over 7700 miles on it.I hadn, t noticed any problems with the clutch .The guys just came to my house Friday because I had a tailpipe issue.While here I had them change the oil.They also replaced the drive belt & said they've come up with an adjustment on the clutch.The cart takes off smoother & climbs hills better.It also added about 3 m.p.h.
I have nothing but praise for Carts n Clubs . They're Carts & service is far superior then The Villages.
