I own a John Deere 5420 and recently had an experience that scared the **** out of me. I placed the Powershifter in Park and when I released the clutch the tractor took off in forward direction. I was in low range and 2nd gear when this happened. I immediately hit the clutch and brake and looked to see if the shifter was in park and it was. I shifted to neutral and back into park and the same thing happened again. It took 4 tries for the transmission to finally to actually go into park. Has this happened to anybody else out there? This makes me want to trade my Deere for something else!
