Alternator belt breaks after a few hours. Dealers say it is the nature of the beast. Is it a design problem or bad belts. I regret buying it over the Mule. Has Cub Cadet quality gone away. I can't sell it because there is not a fix for the belt problem. Are the new ones from Cub Cadet a POS too?

I just picked up a EFI. Haven't driven it around enough to have any issues. Also have a regular 20HP volunteer now with 600+ hours, only issue was a leaking oil drain bolt which I replaced and no further issues.
Perhaps find a different dealer...."nature of the beast" would not cut it with me.
How much you want for it?? :laughing:

MTD is gonna drive this Cub Cadet business right into the ground. You're getting alibis and excuses.
I guess the sales guy toldyou when you bought it, Oh by the way, you're gonna be replacing belts every few hours?
I wonder if anybody at MTD reads these threads?
My experience with Cub Cadet is you're many times on your own. You have to solve problems yourself. I have done that, on my GT-2550. I still have a few problems, but nobody at the dealer's seems too concerned. Or too competent. Sorry to say.
