Default Yamaha Golf Cart Service

Right now I'm not completely happy with the place where I have my golf cart serviced. They are not a disaster but just a series of mechanic mistakes over a period of a couple of years that are more annoying than troublesome. Anyway, I'm curious who you believe provides the best Yamaha cart service in The Villages community. Where do they have the best mechanics, or who among the various "come to your home" persons is the best? Do you prefer the independent contractors over the established sales and service centers or vice versa? Looking forward to your responses. Thanks.

I have Carts and Clubs service my cart at home, and on occasion have used The Villages store at Spanish Springs and Lake Sumter. I've been happy with both, satisfied every time. I have heard Willie Wilcoxin for home service is very good, but that info comes from friends and not personal experience.

Carts and Clubs will only service what they sell.

My vote goes to Willie Wilcoxon. He's serviced my carts for several years, along with many of my friends and clients. Haven't regretted using him nor recommending him to date.

I feel your pain. I got rid of the brick and mortar shop I was using for various reasons. Mostly trying to sell me the next high ticket item they thought I might need, or plan and simple service items I didn't need.
Through this site I was able to find an individual with 30 years of experience and knows what he is doing. For some reason you can not mention his name on here, but all I can say is my cart has never run better.

I second the name of Willie Wilcoxon. I previously had an outside service and wan't happy with them. My friend recommended Willie and I had him come to my home and I can say, my cart hasn't run better. I've had him service my cart now for about 3 years and would recommend him to anyone.

We've used Willie for 3 years. We have one gas and one battery cart. Great service, on time, reliable and reasonable.

The phone number for Willie's Golf Cart Service is 352-255-1369. Just for your info, his business card indicates "Repair and Rentals". I never have inquired about his rentals, but it might be of interest for TOTV readers who have written about rentals in the past.
