Yamaha UMAX Bistro and Bistro Deluxe Vehicles

Yamaha Golf-Car Company, of Kennesaw, Georgia, is recalling Model Year 2019-2025 UMAX Bistro and Bistro Deluxe vehicles because the weight capacity certification label is inaccurate. This could result in the vehicle being overloaded, posing an injury hazard. No incidents have been reported. The recall involves about 1,101 units in the United States and about 75 in Canada.

The recalled gas and electric vehicles were sold at Yamaha Golf Car dealers nationwide beginning July 2018 through May 2026 for between $17,495 and $29,06. The gas models are J0G (YUM2A) and the electric models are J5D (YUM2E).

The food and merchandise service vehicles have a four-lid ice chest, sliding snack tray, and a vertical display case (Bistro Deluxe) with slanted shelves for displaying goods. They were sold in white, green, red, teal, and brown colors, with the serial number located under the rear cargo area on the frame. The vehicles were made in Japan.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled vehicles and contact an authorized Yamaha Golf Car dealer to schedule a free replacement of the label. A Yamaha dealer will replace the label at the vehicle's location.
