Has anyone here heard of a recall on the tc's pertaining to a HST transmission syncronizer? Mechanic I was talking to yesterday said they are doing some due to the machine sliding out of gear and into neutral while going downhill? Perhaps it is an "as needed" sort of thing. Reason he mentioned it was because I had recently traded one in and it was on the list to be done. Perhaps it amounts to nothing and is a local problem, don't know.

Hadn't heard of this recall. Did he mention what models were affected?

<font color=blue>Not specfically, he did say my trade-in was one of them and that is a tc 29d. I would assume all three models in that line would have the same hydro transmission.

There were discussions here in the past regarding that recall for HST TCs. There were about 1500 units affected and NH contacted (or attempted to contact) all the owners. My poor TC40D was one of the units affected and was repaired last summer. Did not experience the problem and everything is still fine.

Of course there is that factor of knowing that your tractor had something wrong, was less then perfect /w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif.

<font color=blue>I am wondering why I didn't receive a notification if it was that far back and my 29 was included, perhaps it is a different recall? Of course I know how you feel, I don't like my equipment hauled away for repair either. I have actuallly had more damage done to machinery, including automobiles, due to carelessness and lack of a cranium on the part of the mechanics, than was origonally wrong with it in the first place.

There is not now, nor ever was, a recall (campaign) on the range transmission of the TC Class II tractors (25,29,33). There WAS such a recall on about 1500 Class III tractors (35,40,45). This repair should be complete on all units that require it by now, though there are doubtless a few out there that still need it. Your dealer must have not have sold any affected units, or he would have better first-hand info.

Quite truthfully, I don't know. The mechanic said he had done four so far. He said they had to do mine yet and that is the extent of my involvement with them.
