hey all, i bought a 2012 JD 4720 with a cab and FEL with 520 hours about 1.5 months ago from a local JD dealer. Saturday while using it (probably the 3rd time) the front left tire fell off. It ruined the wheel and ruined my plans...lots of scrambling, cussing and the sorts. You guys know the deal.
I have a bit of heartburn on this as the dealer wouldn't budge on the price - I paid full asking price, the salesman justifying it because they do a full service to the machines.
wouldn't torquing wheels be on the checklist for EVERY machine they sell? just seems that should not have happened. i doubt the dealer will want to buy me a new wheel. wondering how i should approach this, and with who at the dealer.
aggravating.
