he first time out using tractor I was mowing a field the engine shut down a couple times on me then next time out again trying to mow a field the PTO stopped working after only a couple minutes took back to the dealer they could not find the problem took it out again PTO failed took it back to the dealer dealer said it was fixed they replaced PTO switch took it back and tried again after about five minutes PTO shut down again took it back to the dealer they replaced another switch said it was fixed fortunately while they were working on it it went into regeneration so they could not shut it down which got the engine hot they told me I could take it home it was done I said I don't trust it so I got back in it engaged PTO and it did not work they hook the computer up and it ran a code stating it was PTO coil Running hot so they overnight new part put in tractor still not working this has been going on for three weeks I've lost my biggest account since I mow fields for a living I have not been able to go to work now they're chasing the problem it's not the dealers fault it's John Deere Tractor, now they're calling John Deere Tractor replacing part by part, and John Deere is saying to replace wiring harness now, it's a joke I don't want this tractor I told them I want my money back, I have a lot of experience full-time with tractors and this thing is almost putting me out of business i've contacted John Deere begging for help to know resolve I've begged people to call me back to no resolve it's ridiculous to spend top dollar which I did pay top dollar for this I really did not get that great of a deal even though it was a harvest return at this point if someone was to ask me what tractor to get I would say in this horsepower range go with Kabota I've had nothing but good luck with Kabota and really bad luck with John Deere this is not my first problem with deer product, I really like this tractor I wanted it to work for me But now it's got to the point where I'm actually getting sick from the stress literally I do not recommend this tractor and I hate to say that about John Deere Tractor it's very unfortunate and in the end I'm the one paying it's not fair!!!!!
