Cab tractors are assembled in GA, open stations assembled in India.

"assembled" is the key word, the actual tractor is made in India.

Just an update. Love the tractor but having these problems. Should I try to get them to swap it out for another one? Has 21 hrs on it now I think. Had it since nov 25th.
Oil in antifreeze
3pt will only raise about half of what it should. Makes loading equipment fun
Big cab bolt that connect to rops is stripped and sticking up about 1/2-3/4". They are mentioning new cab possible??
Telescoping steering wheel won't lock
Missing one rear carriage bolt and another is loose on rear tire
Caution light comes on constantly and kicks pto off
Brakes go to floor, have to pump them. Another thing that's fun when loading equipment
I'm sure Brett doesn't give a rat's butt in which country they didn't tighten which bolt. This isn't right. The whole point in buying new and spending extra on the green paint is to avoid this exact scenario. Oil in the antifreeze, 3pt not working, reattaching a new cab and oh by the way make sure you pump the brakes?!
This is the kind of horror story that should be associated with a gray-market Chinese tractor, not a brand new John Deere.
Loaning you equipment doesn't make for a good dealer or salesperson and sorry, their attention to detail sucks. They already dropped off the wrong tractor once and are now in possession of the problem one. You aren't paying to borrow a used tractor, you're paying for a new one. Nothing short of a new tractor would make me happy because I would have zero confidence in the first one and would still be highly suspect of its replacement.
I would be gracious, polite but unyielding on anything short of a new tractor, it's Christmas you know! Good luck!
Aanndd your point is what?
That makes no sense.
He said "Cab tractors are assembled in GA, open stations assembled in India."
So where do you say the actual open tractor "made", as opposed to assembled?
In fact, I would say the shortcomings in my new tractor are in its assembly; too many nuts, bolts and fittings not tightened (in Georgia). Whatever parts arrived from other countries is insignificant to me.
Just my opinion.
