When I bought mine new in 2012 it was a nightmare trying to get the dealer to fix it. They finally changed tires and wheels four times. The only way they can really fix it is to jack the car up and spin each wheel to see which tire is wobbling. The road mechanic told me that the tires come in folded over and strapped down and that is why they wobble. It still took 1000 miles before it was almost ok. I assume it is an Ez go. You can jack it up yourself and spin each wheel to see which one or ones are bad.

I have noticed it seems to me after some of the side streets like ours that have been micropaved there is a little bounce but not all.

It is definitely the wheels, tires or cart. I will invest in a jack and when I find which tire I can have it fixed.

Thank you. I am so lucky to still have them and to be able to share life with them. Even if there are bumps!
