I wanted to post an update on my tractor, I have had time to use it since the repair. The brake replacement has fixed the squeaking noise when hitting the brakes and the loud popping noise when hitting the brakes. ‘They must of done something with because the “creep” when releasing the HST pedal...

‘What people are not understanding is that I owned a L2501 for 5 years, took it up and down the same mountain trail several 100’s of times without any issues. I owned the L4701 for a year and put a 150 hour on it, I took it up and down the same mountain trail dozens and dozens of times and never...

Yes I posted on OTT to try and get some helpful information. Got several helpful posts. One OTT member tractor rolled down the hill with his parking brake applied and another OTT member had to take his tractor in 3 times under warranty trying to get his brakes repaired to keep his tractor from...

Yeah I don’t know why a brand new tractor which has brakes that have never worked properly from day one and almost killed me once already, makes this loud popping noise is a problem, it is probably just in my head. ‘Nothing wrong here boys, hold my beer and I will show you there is nothing wrong...

yea I am super high maintenance, expecting the brakes on my new $60,000 tractor to actually work and not make a dozen loud popping noise when activating them. A dozen people on this exact forum thread said the same thing “I don’t know why you are using the brake to begin with” , exactly like I...

Wow thank you for a help post. Do you know what they did to solve the problem with your tractor?

He said that I should only use the brake as a parking brake. No he said I should never use them, only to park.

No I release the HST pedal leaving it in the neutral position and when I want the tractor to come to a complete stop I push the brake. When this noise first happened I was backing down the hill very slowly, 1/2 walking speed. Seen a pretty big branch on the trail and hit the brakes to bring the...

Do you ever come to a complete stop on a hill? If so how do you keep your tractor from creeping down the hill?

He demonstrated it for me. ‘This is what he told me and showed me what to do. Back down the hill, release the HST pedal, wait for the tractor to come to a creep when the tractor starts creeping down the hill you push he HST pedal forward and creep 2 inches forward, release the HST pedal, then...

I use the brakes to stop the tractor from rolling down the hill. If I let off the HST pedal with the tractor on a hill it will roll down the hill. My L2501 also did that, the brand new L2502 the dealer took on a hill to prove to me that I don’t need to use the brakes also started rolling down...

When I went down and inspected the tractor the tech had the service manual and we measured the disc and they were in spec and appeared to be in like new condition, I am pretty sure they know that the issue isn’t the brakes but I believe they want to replace them to eliminate that as the issue...

It is real easy to be a D-bag on the phone and on the internet. I called dozens of dealers and got nowhere getting my tractor fixed. i even started calling dealers in Ohio and Tennessee. i even called messicks in PA trying to get it fixed. Even Messicks refused to work on it according to them it...

I did exactly what the warranty contract says to do. Obtaining Warranty Services How to Obtain Warranty Service To obtain warranty service under the terms and conditions of the Kubota Limited Warranty, you must deliver the product to an authorized Kubota dealer, along with proof of...

No I didn’t call anyone because the legal binding warrant contract says “for warranty issues you can take it to any kubota dealership”. I took it to the closest kubota dealership to where the tractor was located on my farm in Jackson County Kentucky. When they flat out refused to work on it and...

I am not backtracking on anything, the kubota warranty contract says that you can take it to ANY kubota dealer for warranty repair. That is a legal binding contract. What you are smelling is the BS from my local kubota dealers. I have already priced a new kubota mx6000, 3rd function kit and...

Nice I purchased my 2019 CBR1000RRSP1 from a Honda dealership in Birmingham, Alabama (Only place that has it in stock) When I had an issue under warranty I took it to my local Honda dealer in Lexington Kentucky and they fixed it no questions asked. They didn’t say, well you didn’t buy your Honda...

I am just stating the facts, I am operating the tractor on top of a mountain with a 100 foot rock cliff at the bottom. If I was operating the tractor on prairie land with a major safety component failing I would not be concerned, I would just let off the HST pedal and the tractor would come to a...

I am just sharing my experience with my warranty repair. I told the dealership (the only one I found willing to work on it) that if they take the tractor apart and the brake linings were worn down below spec I would pay them to take it apart and put it back together. They took it apart and the...

I hope you are right, they are replacing all 4 brake disc and plates under warranty. ‘If you are right then I will get back my tractor repaired. I am so hopeful. I am down for the $50 bet If that fixes it then I will send you the $50.
