Question

We have a Yamaha Wave Runner GP800R. On the 4th of July the trottle stuck open on the Wave Runner running across the lake by it self going around 30 miles per hour. Luckly no one was killed or injured. The Wave Runner was run off the lake by a boater hitting the shore and damaging the Wave Runner. This machine is not under warranty but this should not be an issue since we feel this is a defect in the Wave Runner. The laynard came off of the pin which should of stopped Wave Runner but did not. We have contacted Yamaha about this and they said they were going to check it out. They called back 3 weeks later and said nothing was wrong with it and would not do anything about it because it was not in warranty. The Wave Runner we feel was never checked properly by Yamaha. We feel this is not a warrany problem and should be addressed before someone gets killed or injured. We would like to be compensated for the loss of the Wave Runner but Yamaha refuses to do anything about it.
