In the early morning hours of April 20, 2014, a house firebroke out in a three-story beach house in Garden City, South Carolina. A South Carolina family from Lamar, SC was vacationing for the week at the beach house. The family also rented a golf cart from Woody’s Beach Rentals to use for the week. The golf cart, a Club Car, was plugged-in to a wall outlet under the house in the covered garage. There were four children staying in the house with their parents. The parents were able to wake-up the children and get them out of the house. The parents did not survive the fire. Now, news sources report that a products liability suit has been brought against Club Car, LLC, the manufacturer of the golf cart for causing the fire.
