TYM Warranty Disaster

[Torvy]

I heard they are assembled in the US, is it true?

Yes. There are a few different assembly plants. GA, TX and PA for sure, maybe more? I wonder if problems stem from one more than others. There are also things done by dealers. Some dealers are really good about making sure everything is working before they sell/deliver. Others just don't seem to care.

Another proof that there are very few good thing left in the world that Americans can't destroy.
1st all the US auto industry, then they almost succeeded on the most reliable car - Toyota (read about 3rd gen tundra's, the most American truck, was developed and built in the US), now the tractor's turn. Really sad

Good morning Phantom,
Yes, the temps are C.

Ah. Are you a transplant from The Great White North?

We don't do C here. We have a very simple set of weights and measures that are explained in this short video:

Very frustrating experience for the OP. I remember when I was shopping tractors. I looked at ALL the brands I could possibly look at in person. They all looked pretty good in their own ways. What it boiled down to for me was: when I need help, is the company going to stand behind their product? That's when I narrowed my search down to only the big names (Deere, New Holland, Kubota). Those companies are big enough names in the U.S. that they would be very unlikely to leave a customer stranded with no help. And, they're big enough names that they wouldn't let problematic tractors leave the factory to begin with.

Good luck. I hope there is a positive resolution to your problems.

I think assembly plant might be a slight exaggeration. From what I understand they bolt the wheels on and what ever options are added before sale.

It's a little more detailed than that, but it is what almost all mfgs do in the US. Even Deere's assembly plants are just putting the major components together.

From the OP. My experience taught me that Blue Mule is right. Not only smaller companies like TYM can not be trusted to support their product, but their dealers are also free to back out of supporting what they sold. It is happening to me. It is also difficult to find compatible filters etc.

Have others experienced similar behavior of a tractor falsely throwing these error lights when DOC and DPF are fine?
