Why I Will Never Buy John Deere Again | 210G Repairs

  • Опубліковано 18 жов 2024
  • Once again we are tackling challenges with our 210G excavator, this time on a new site work project in West Jefferson, NC - a whole two hours from our shop. 😅 I can talk all day about the mechanical troubles that have been plaguing our machine and the awful service we've had on it. But we've got our personal mechanic and operator working on it now, showcasing their humorous ingenuity and problem-solving skills. 🛠 Watch as they make some repairs and then get creative, finding a way to securely put the heavy counterweight back on the 210.
    As the rain starts to fall, they hesitantly push forward, knocking out some work on the site. It’s a day of persistence and a bit of creativity on the job site...

    My JD 200 DLC has been a tank! The lift pump went bad after many hours but we installed a small 24v pump for $25 and it hasn’t missed a lick. I’d stay away from that dealer if they diagnose by phone! lol

      Not anymore. In February of 2022 Deere and Hitachi separated. But yeah most excavators made prior to the separation were made by hitachi. Used to use a Deere key to start my Hitachi 470.

      They are all still Hitachi design and parts built by deere in kernsville yes even the new p models
      on a 210 the deere will have a deere engine and cooling package A hitachi will be isuzu powered
      Deere is comeing out with there own design there are demo prototypes out in a few sizes doing testing now they are still labeled p models but are full deere known as the dex excavator in house
      As for the lift pump yeah the y come complete like u got but theres a new brushless
      Model out u may not have got that one they are quute a but more money i would have too look it up

    I don’t know who your dealer is, but my understanding is they’re only a small handful of independent dealers left in the United States. Most John Deere dealers are Nortrax. And I can tell you from experience they are horrible to work with. They had my excavator held hostage for a year for a swing motor repair. I have a real crackerjack mechanic I use. The only reason I didn’t have him do the swing motor is because he was going through some bad cancer. I will never send my machine back to the dealership again. My machine is actually a Hitachi purchased from the John Deere dealer. I don’t know the years, but Hitachi actually built the John Deere excavators for quite a few years and just recently divorced from John Deere. It is my understanding that the John Deere dealership Nortrax no longer supports Hitachi’s.

      For sure, our only real dealer option is James River and we’ve dealt with every division in a 3 hour radius. Have our own employed mechanic now to work on them but he’s still got to argue with the parts darts boys at the dealership before they’ll sell us what we want.

    You really have not a clue what your on about as you get one bad problem with one machine which sounds like nobody could diagnose a small issue so your never buying another one again grow up because in a lifetime you will have lots of different makes of equipment and it definitely will not be the last problem so learn to diagnose problems before you throw a temper tantrum about one issue
