242.3 hrs on it and one of the steering hoses developed a leak. 5-23 it was 2 yrs old. Mechanic at dealer said they have had a few of these hoses leak. My belts on the mower got soaked in oil too so they will probably need replacing. Parts are on order they should be here next week. Dealer has call in to Kubota to see if they will cover any of this. I know hoses don't last forever but but I think this one was defective and it looks like Kubota is having a problem with these hoses.
