Is Your Air Conditioner Or Golf Cart On This Recall List?

A couple of recalls that you may need to be aware of if you have either of these products.

Air Conditioner Recall

The first is for air conditioners. About 1.7 million of them were sold in the U.S. (also about 45,900 sold in Canada). That's a lot of air conditioners. According to the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission, Midea is recalling certain air conditioners due to the risk of mold exposure.

The reason for the mold appearance is due to pooled water in the air conditioners, which can fail to drain quickly enough. The U.S. CPSC notes that mold exposure poses risks of respiratory issues or other infections to some consumers.

If you purchased one of these air conditioners, contact Midea immediately for a free repair or a full or prorated refund, which will be based on the purchase date or date of manufacture.

Some of the stores where these air conditioners were sold (but not limited to) include Midea.com, Home Depot, Lowe's, Amazon.com, Walmart.com, BJs.com, and BestBuy.com from March 2020 through May 2025 for between $280 and $500.

As of this article, there have been at least 152 reports of mold in the air conditioners, including 17 reports of consumers experiencing various symptoms.

Golf Cart Recall

The next recall involves golf carts. The United States Consumer Product Safety Commission is alerting consumers to a Yamaha Golf Car recall.

The reason for the recall is the accelerator pedal spring, which can fail to return to idle when a consumer stops pressing the accelerator pedal, posing a crash hazard. There have been at least 2,200 reports of incidents involving accelerator pedal return spring failures...fortunately, no injuries to date.

This recall involves approximately 352,000 Yamaha golf carts, including model year 2016 Yamaha Drive Gas/Electric, model years 2017-2024 Drive 2 Gas/Electric, model years 2016-2018 Adventurer, and model years 2019-2024 UMAX.
