Exterior lighting — side and rear reflectors (FMVSS 108)
Defect: Textron Specialized Vehicles (Textron) is recalling certain 2023-2025 Cushman Hauler Pro LSV, Tour LSV, and E-Z-GO Liberty LSV vehicles. The side and rear reflectors insufficiently reflect light. As such, these lights fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment." Risk: Without properly reflective equipment, it may be difficult for other road users to see the vehicle from the rear or side, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: E-Z-Go or Cushman will mail new reflectors to owners, and dealers will be able to install, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on March 24, 2025. Owners may call Textron Specialized Vehicles Customer Service at 706-799-4768.

Our figures, from verified specs + the cart's sourced price — lower cost-per-seat and cost-per-mile is better; higher power-to-weight means more pep and hill-climb. Range uses the normalized estimate. Cost per kWh is what the price actually buys you in battery — the single figure that separates a cheap cart from an under-batteried one, and almost nobody publishes it. Pack energy is the maker's published kWh where they give one, otherwise volts × amp-hours.
