35 hours and my fender broke BX24

NoviceguyInCT · Apr 8, 2007

I have an early model BX24 produced before the fender fixes. My fenders have not broken yet. I only weigh 160 lbs. I have a question for everyone. Will Kubota repair the fenders if they break after the warranty period, say two to four years from now?????

I see guys telling others to jump on the fenders to get them to break etc. I don't wanna have the fenders break 4-5 years from now and not have them covered under warranty. But I'm not about to break the fenders on purpose either.

I've scheduled a 100 hr service for next week. I plan to have a leaky hose connection and the seat warranty repair done.

YOU GUYS ON HERE ARE THE BEST AND A VERY HELPFUL BUNCH !!

I have 140hrs, on my BX24 and it has not broken. It looks week but i weigh 280 and it is holding so far . I wish it was like my old BX2200. That thing was solid. I figure mine will break as soon as the warranty expires. I have had the plastics around the engine replaced twice keeps breaking the tab where the had tightened fastner is, then it slides against the muffler and melts it. Its broken again right now..

The black plastic near the exhaust pipe also melted on my tractor because the black knob under the hood that you tighten to keep the engine cover from moving keeps coming loose. Was your repair covered under warranty?

Thanks

I'm just getting the fender reinforcemnt kit from the dealer and going to do it myself. I'd rather do that then have to replace the whole fender and do the kit just because I can.
