New warranty BX seat! - Page 2

skippy957 · 07-07-2007, 08:42 PM

My dealer told me that he orders 5 seats but Kubota Canada will not take back the old seats.
In my case every things will be charge on the warranty.
I did try the new seat and it makes the different.

I have a first year BX24. Is this new seat covered under warranty? No cost?

My dealer told me there would be a small charge for the new seat. <~ $25.00

At my closest dealer it was. Some have a surcharge associated with it. I expected to pay a few $$ for it but did not have to. You will have to check with your dealer to know for sure but I suspect your's would be.

Wait....this applies to the "B" series too???? My *** has been getting numbed after about 2 hours of seat time and we can get a new decent seat??? I was actually shopping around for a new one because the one I have is so bad!

OK, for those of us (me!!!) late to the party...what exactly do we have to do to get this thing? Step by step please!

This covers BX 2230s. That's what I have, and got the new seat about two weeks ago for my new (to me) dealer. The seats are fantastic. It feels like a whole new, comfortable tractor.

Could you provide your dealers name and or number please..

I'd like to speak directly with someone who actually is aware there is a issue/campaign/replacment. Then I can proceed with some type of intellegence with my original or local dealers... I hate when I don't have all the facts and have to walk out saying I'll get more info and come back...

Thanks!!

I was able to get a replacement seat for my B7510 over the weekend. Paid ~$31 w/tax. Have not had a chance to use it beyond installing and sitting on it. Seems to be a lot better seat, wider more cushion etc. I have heard yes/no on whether it really covers all current BX/B series. My dealer also lives on my street so he may have been helping me out. I too was shopping around for a replacement and they are $$$!

What I did that helped, is only use one of the rear springs and install in place of the rear bolt on the toolbox (under set). I eventually got me a long bolt so I could adjust the rear height of the seat. It at least helped to make it more level. Something to consider for those who are unable to replace their seat.

Went to the dealer today and told him of this. He did not have a clue about any of this. Nothing in his data base either. He's got some calls into Kubota Canada to see what's up. Not too encouraged here

I CHECKED WITH MY DEALER ON THE B2630 MODEL THAT I HAVE AND WAS TOLD THEY NEVER HEARD ANYTHING SO I THEN CALLED KUBOTA AND THEY SAY IT APPLIES TO ONLY THE BX24 SERIES.
