I let a friend use my b2400 for a day and he noticed a hydraulic fluid leak under the tractor. Not real bad but he lives right near the Kubota dealer so he dropped it off for me. The service manager called and said it was just a loose steering column that needed to be tightened up. No real parts, just some labor and Hydro fluid. I gave my buddy the credit card and asked him to pay for it when he picked it up and brought it home. He shows up with a look of fear on his face and shows me the bill. $27.07 for parts, $451.00 for labor ??? I almost had a stroke. It was dropped off thursday at 2:00 pm and picked up at 2:00 pm friday. My buddy checked in at the dealer personally /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif and said they only worked on it for 2 hours tops. They were closed when I got the bill and I,m going down Monday to complain. Please tell me theres just a billing error here.Or is the going labor rate $200.00 an hour. I need some advice before I loose my grip at the dealer.
