I bought a John Deere 855 with Loader in Dec, 1998. Since that time I have had a power steering leak, the main rear seal has had to be replaced, 4 trips to the shop to repair the loader hydraulics, and twice the battery has had such severe corrosion it ate through the cables. John Deere aparently has no buy-back policy and the dealer won't offer any help other than to do the required warranty work. Does anyone have any suggestions on what can be done with a "Lemon" tractor or has anyone had similar problems ?

I experienced some issues with the JD4100 that I bought in 1999. I researched Michigan's Lemon Law and learned that tractors are not covered. If your state has a Lemon Law you may want to read it to see if your situation is covered. IMHO it sounds like your dealer is trying to fix things for you. Maybe your problems will eventually be resolved. Good luck. ....

Larry; If you wouldn't mind, could you please tell me the problems you had with your 4100. What year was it and was it gear or hydro? I have a 4100 hydro and I would be interested hearing.
Thanks, Eric ....
