Deere 1023E, 1025R, and 2025R recall

[dodge man]

I went out and checked my JD 2025r and the bell crank that is the problem on mine is cracked so it’s really not safe to use. If it breaks, you end up with no brakes. I called the dealer and they knew less about the recall than I did. The recall letter lists a date of October 25 for when the improvement program will be released for mine. I took a pic of mine and circle the crack in yellow.

Looks like an easy fix to replace that cracked piece.

Edit: Part number LVU31387 (found it, thanks)

Most people using their tractors seldom use the brake pedal as the HST will stop the tractor, however it is a safety device in sometimes critical situations.

If the tractor had to go back to the dealer for this recall, I would rather buy this replacement (or the deere part if it is a good replacement) and install it myself.

It is easy to replace I’ve read, the problem is the new part would break again. The way I understand the recall will install a better part.

Just JD cutting corners to save profit again. Instead of two ounces of metal they use a half ounce. Then pat each other on the back gaining more profit on the entry level tractors. Looks like it came back and bit them.

The only recall for vehicle that I know the back story is supplier cut corners , didn’t meet specifications and falsified data. Supplier went out of business
