Re: 2015 + 2016 Yamaha Recall
Actually, it was caused the the wheel manufacture. They put Teflon in the paint. This caused the assembly line tourque wrenches to over tighten the lugnuts and could have cracked the aluminum hubs. Out of the 20 cars I had in my service area, about 10 out of 40 front hubs were cracked on one side. All dealers were notified with the serial numbers of the effected range and they should all be done by now. But, Scottyb is right, If your not shure, call your local dealer.

Re: 2015 + 2016 Yamaha Recall
The last batch of carts we got now had steel front hubs, that shouldnt crack . The number of affected units was limited in scope, not all '15-'16 models were affected.
