New warranty BX seat!

[Frostyford]

We'll, I'm still waiting for my call back from my dealer. I called last summer when this thing started. They said they would "look" into it and he'd give me a call. I didn't expect much feedback and got none. Waiting a month, and called again....run-a-round.

This is going to work just like the "seat bracket" issue. It took a year before my dealer would get one to me. And because I'm in another state they won't service it unless I haul it to them.

Kubota is great and think they are putting the best foot forward....Dealer is stamping on it. I'm disappointed with my dealer. I'd love to just have a seat, even if I have to pay for some "shipping & handling". I guess it's time to walk into the dealer and sit down with them again.

Is the program still available?

Don't think it's officially still running but if dealers have any seats left over I'm sure they will hook you up. Not sure who still does though!

Got my new seat last week! The dealer I went to (not my original dealer who went out of business) was happy to help and is still receiving shipments from Kubota (a few seats at a time). He charged $31.00 plus tax. I had to keep checking back to see if he received any seats, but it was well worth the effort.

The seat is indeed a night and day difference - no more forward slope and associated underwear issues!!

I agree,the seat is a vast improvement,especially if your dealer takesd care of you like yours did.I finally decided I couldn't stand the old one any longer and bit the bullet.For the seat and one oil filter for my B-7800 it came to $306,this after pestering the dealer for 2 months about the seat.He wouldn't budge because my tractor was just over 2 years old when I heard about the service bulletin on this forum and brought it up to him.If I ever buy another tractor,which I doubt,It will not be a Kubota.I feel that the old seat was such a disaster that it should have been a recall item.
Just my .02.

My dealer had some brought in when they were first available. I picked one up yesterday for $25 - list price $164! I will be installing it this next weekend, but if it is anything like the BX on the showroom floor it is amazingly better than the stock one on my B7510. I wish I had done this before I spent the 35 hours moving snow in the last 3 weeks.

After finally getting a replacement seat for my B7800 and playing with my tractor for a bit yesterday. All I can add is this. HOLY MOLY WHAT A DIFFERENCE!!! Thank you Kubota!!!

Got an email from my dealer today, my seat he ordered is in --but I'm working out of state (NC) and won't be home for several weeks to pick it up

I was born naked, wet, and hungry and it's been all down hill from there.......

Anyone know of a dealer that has any of the replacement seats.


Thanks
