This is the only known major issue from LS and the redesign has fixed it. LS is a name brand and not an off brand. Just like all of the other brands on the market these days they are all made in South Korea.
My dad has a Kubota L3600 tractor and these LS XG3025 tractors are stronger and can lift more. He has had issues with his Kubota front axles breaking from time to time.
Keep dreaming ole boy 👎 ls is a lemon
Most other tractors are NOT made in Korea. Maybe you get that impression because LS makes tractors branded as Case IH, CLAAS, Farmtrac, LS, McCormick, Montana, and New Holland there?
Yeah no LS for me.. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience with them..
I had the same type of problem with Mahinda . I went through two of them neither was dependable. Resolved the problem by biting the bullet and upgrading to a Kubota. Should have investing in the Kubota in the first place. The Kubota is such a better unit. Well worth the extra $
I'm glad there gonna work with you Danny. All those computer, and crazy eco friendly tractors have drivin the prices up on older tractors because people don't want all that junk and headache.
How ironic is that? You get your old tractor as a loner and its fixed. Danny you are a good man being patient with them and not getting in the flesh.
Thats a crazy design, using the block as a stressed member!
Think I'll just stick with my old 4000 Ford. Never a problem.
It is sad that they would fix your first LS tractor for them to use, but not fix it for you. Hope you finally get a good working tractor. They sure come in handy as we get older.
After considering LS i am happy i went with Kubota
You are a very patient man. I would be outraged after all you've been through. I couldn't imagine having to rely on an LS to farm with.
Wow I am speachless.
I have my old Ford and I will not buy a tractor with a computer in it especially with the regen system in it thank you for sharing God bless
I got one pain in the xxx. But everything else is great 55 kabota
Glad you have something to work with, Danny. I have so many projects that I could use a tractor, but the prices of them are .....Well you know. Have considered looking for a super C, even if I had to restore it. Will watch for updates. God bless you and your family.
Mr.Danny, you are a lot more patient that I am. You shouldn't to have to put up with all these problems with a new tractor. It's seems as if LS doesn't make a good product. Cause you've had two lemons. If it we're me, I would drop LS totally.Ya'll are too busy on your place not to have a dependable tractor. You got the patients of a Saint.Good luck my friend.
And on and on the saga goes. WOW! You are right. You can't make this stuff up!
Fingers crossed for you, Mr. Danny. 🤞🏻 The irony of getting back your previous tracker is somewhat humorous.
This has gone on way too long. They just need to bring you a new one. I know these videos have pushed me to a Kubota.
Swap for cash back.
Kubotas are nice, but expensive. Case compact are pretty nice and a little cheaper.
Rather than take the XR3035 away and play the game of "let's diagnose this and negotiate how we will resolve this for you," the dealer truck and trailer should have had on it a BRAND NEW tractor. Not a loaner. Not a refurbished. No, they just needed to swap it out. It would have saved on the dealer hauling twice now, and the man-hours supposedly spent on techs looking into things - yet again!!!! I said supposedly because you have no way of knowing what was actually done on your tractor the nine times it was back in the shop; what they say and invoice you for is not necessarily what was done - or needed. And now, your suspicions of them doing little to nothing to resolve these issues is at an all-time high.
I too had my mind changed from LS and Kioti to John Deere or Kubota and went with the Kubota. Do they cost more, well that depends if you only count initial cost. Kubotas and John Deeres may cost a little more initially, but they work and their dealerships stand behind the products they sell.....for the most part. I'm sure there are some who had had problems with a Kubota or John Deere. The Kubota's and John Deeres start to cost less when the LS and Kioti's start to have problems and the dealerships can't or won't fix them and the you have no support from the manufacturer. To me something that doesn't work isn't worth anything.......no matter how many free options came on it. Another place John Deere and Kubota will cost you less is at trade in time. See what your LS or Kioti is worth at trade in time vs Kubota or John Deere. I think both LS and Kioti suffer at least somewhat from the dealers that sell them. Most of them are sold by dealers who never sold tractors or farm equipment before. They're mower shops that sell and work on lawn mowers, garden tractors, chainsaws and etc. and I think that is some of the problem. Their mechanics are not tractor or farm equipment mechanics. I believe that kioti tractors that are sold by some real farm equipment and tractor dealers might be much better taken care of. I would also add that the Compact New Holland tractors are made for them by LS which might explain why New Holland compact tractors aren't nearly as popular as they once were!
North Georgia Sanctuary good choice!
we had the same ls tractor with the same issue. the motor was replaced at 70 hours my husband said for what he does with the tractor it might not ever bother again but it pissed him of so much that he had a new tractor with that kind of problem he traded it for a kioti
Drive it like you stole it son!!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You win "funniest comment"....
It's kind of telling that your dealer still has the tractor you traded in, after all this time they haven't been able to sell it. Maybe people are starting to catch on to LS tractors problems? Before I started watching youtube videos about problems with LS tractors (and in fairness there are videos from people who love their LS tractors as well) I went to the LS website and did the search for my local dealer. I went to "my local LS dealers website" and it was a small engine repair and lawn a garden dealership. They had a section on "Brands we handle." There was no LS listed in the brands we handle but I did find a listing for LS tractors on another page but I had to hunt for it and it didn't list any in stock tractors. I called my local "LS dealer" and was told by the dealership that they no longer sell LS tractors, that they and "LS tractors had parted company." (there was a bit of hostility in his voice). I send an email to LS telling them I was interested in their tractors but that the dealership they had listed for my area didn't sell LS tractors anymore so could please tell me the next closest dealer. I got an email back from LS giving me the exact same dealer information as the dealer I told them, who told me that they no longer deal with LS tractors. I also suggested that LS should maybe spend some time on finding out who is and who isn't selling their equipment. At that point though, I already knew I wanted no part of owning an LS tractor!
Kinda reminds me of the LONG brand back in the 70's. A lot of issues,basically junk..
WOW, that sucks man. Hopefully they fixed it, nothing worse than having to deal with merry go round on repairs!
After all the problems with the first tractor, even if they repaired everything, I would never buy an LS. God bless
SHOULD HAVE GOT A KUBOTA 😉
In my opinion Kubota is the only good quality tractor left out there, thats coming from a guy that worked 16 years as a tractor mechanic, that includes all brands. I worked for ford and JD, the only tractors I wouldn't work on was the ones you couldn't get parts for. The New Hollands, (Ford) went to crap. Not sure about JD's, been awhile since I messed with tractors. Spant the last 20 years as an industrial hydraulics tech servicing the offshore industry.... Now, forced retirement due to battling and winning against stage 3 lung cancer. Just couldn't beat the chemo and radiation...LOL.....
I drive a Hyster at work and it has a little box for the regent when that symbol pops up on your dash it needs to regent put your tracker in neutral and in park and don’t touch anything! On our hyster there is a button to push I don’t know if you have one or if it does it automatically if you do not have a button the rpms will go up it is going through it’s cycle when it is done the light will go out and you can be on your way
So very happy that you are making progress--let's hope this situation is drawing to a close. Good luck with the Gathering.
After watching your videos about the LS tractors, I have learned one thing for sure. I will NEVER buy an LS tractor
Good. Good on them so far. Let's hope the company continues to do what is right.
Those new tractors will never last as long as your Cub.
Its a start ...hope it all works out for you. I dont care for the newer machines ...the electronics tend to put a lot of people at the mercy of the dealer and company. I went with a Kubota that had 200 hrs and is pushing 25yrs old....just a solid little machine that has never give me an ounce of trouble in 10yrs.Hope you can latch on to that kinda dependability yourself no mater the brand
It's like new, now!
That WAS what you said was wrong with the first Tractor !! From the very beginning. Lol. I wonder how many other people told them the same thing. That little ding needs some paint, at least primer to stop it rusting. What a bummer though that they only fixed it AFTER you had to spend even more money. You should be charging THEM for being a bloody Beta-Tester (something the manufacturing process should've included WAY before it got to the assembly line) and finding all the bugs in the new tractor. (Apologies for my language, I just get so frustrated on your behalf) l wonder if the mail dump we joined in had any effect on them, when the bosses in-boxes start overflowing there's bound to be some Farm Fertiliser "... rolling downhill" as they say. 👍
In the automotive industry there is a heavily frowned upon practice of taking in used units at a reduced trade in value because of an issue the dealer knows is covered under warranty but not admitting it.Then repairing it at the manufactures cost and the dealer keeps all the profit when they sell it on the used lot.
Its legally something like warranty disclosure fraud to purposely increase used unit profit margin end use....
it smells like your dealer is screwing you and the manufacturer when I sniff it.
All four American branded car dealers I worked at did it too some degree at one point or another. It was very common for them to make a claim for warranty work in the customers name AFTER the vehicle was traded in and did not belong to them anymore.
Im so glad they're stepping up!! #BigBoyToys♥️♥️👍👍🌱🌱👨🌾👨🌾
LS was once called "Farmtrac";" Longtrac" and originally "Long" made in NC. When India got involved with the Framtrac name things went downhill. Closed the NC factory and started importing these tractors.They have always had engine, and hydralic problems. The Long and Longtrac were good solid frames. Framtrac light weight fames on all models. My 75 HP had to be replaced after a month.
These videos and many others like it on UA-cam are the main reason I'm not buying a LS tractor and there's a dealer I drive by daily on my way to work in Galesburg Illinois, I'm going with a Massey Ferguson for their tried and true reliability.
Massey Ferguson! 1735M. Best compact tractor on the market!
Double that comment, I have two Massey’s, 3 years over 250 hard hours, no problems.
LOL, Danny! Does the company know you recognized your previously owned tractor? How many seconds did it take you to recognize it? (I couldn't have kept a straight face). : )
I'm REALLY hoping things all work out for you!
Don't judge a company by one bad experience. Do your home work. I know someone who sold their new Kubota. Couldn't keep it running. People had to keep coming out in the field to reset computer. Kubota is a good company and so is LS Tractor,
I saw this video the other week and it’s popping up that it was uploaded today
LOVING this recognition video. Have they contacted you back about this video??
It's about time they stepped up and brought you a loaner tractor. When they bring your other tractor back, ask them to leave that one for a while until you make sure the other one is fixed. Good luck!!
They don’t wanna lose their only customer! Lol
This is the only guy that I know that doesn"t like one ls(2025) then buys another etc etc. I have a 3025 and a 3010 and have no problems. The only person I know at ls is (BILLY} the guy who sold it to me..
@ Salty Steel LS is an off brand tractor. There's no doubt about it.
I love this video
You crack me up, good stuff
Now Stop Buying LS tractor! After a year they still had your old 1 thats odd!
I have a 3025 with 300 hrs on her. In the fall of 2018 it started losing power intermittently. I talked to my dealer and he indicated he was swamped with auto repairs so I struggled through until about six weeks ago when it completely lost power and would only idle. I managed to get it loaded and out of the wood lot I was working in and took it to the dealer. Again he indicated he was swamped with other work but would try to get it in. Three weeks later I could wait no more, having hand loaded several cords of firewood into my dump trailer, I went in and pushed the issue. A couple days later I stopped in again and he said they had found that the fuel pump wasn’t working.
He indicated that a factory fuel pump would not be available for two weeks and he was going to install an aftermarket fuel pump temporarily and he did successfully.
At the same time it was in the shop they were supposed to do the shim recall on the frame and service the tractor.
He called ansd indicated my tractor was ready and I went to pick it up. When I arrived I was told that there had been a change in the recall and they were now replacing the frame, loader lift arm brackets and other parts but none of these kits were available at the present time. He also forgot to service the tractor.
So my right hand man, the tractor, is now functioning as it did before and hopefully the engine block isn’t damaged by continued use of the loader.
In all honesty, I have been extremely pleased with this tractor and it has functioned flawlessly until the fuel pump expired. I have used and abused this tractor with a home made skidder frame and logging winch on the three point hitch, pulling large drags of 12’ logs both on the skidder frame and on the forks to balance things out. The drags were big enough that I would fill a 12’ dump trailer with 4-5 skids!
This little work horse never missed a beat, used little fuel and always started regardless of temperature! My tractor wears its own battle wounds such as the large dent in the hood from dropping the bucket on it while lifting it with a chain and the forks out of the back of the truck. Bad rigging on my part!
Anyway I have no problem with the tractor provided it doesn’t spend its time parked in the dealers parking lot and not being used on my place!
The fuel pump failed in 300 hours? There was a recall that parts weren't available for? Sounds like a reliable machine. You can rely on it to break down.
I'll stick with my Kioti
Note to self . Dont buy a LS tractor
Why? Every brand has lemons. Especially cheaper brands like kioti and LS. They should definitely quit dicking him on the warranty tho.
@@dogman8356 So why buy an LS or kioti?
@@davidcarleton6928 as far as buying it it's a personal choice I guess, I don't care what everybody else buys I have an LS and it's a beast with no problems.
Hoping and Praying all this gets worked out. Many Blessings!
Stick with a tractor without a computer. Glad they stepped up and gave you the loaner
The sad thing is if it is financed he has to keep paying on a tractor that he isn't able to use or ruin his credit.
Hopefully with the issue fixed from the first one you can get plenty of work. 😊🙏
Thanks for posting this series of videos. In Australia LS tractors are not sold however I think the smaller Case IH tractors are rebadged LS tractors from South Korea.
After watching your videos it looks like government regulations are at fault. From what I understand if an engine puts out more than 25HP of power then filters and pollution monitoring systems are required by regulations to be fitted to the tractor. This is why there are so many small tractors sold with engines outputting 25 or less HP.
In a few years time I may need a tractor on a little farm. I’m hoping by this time battery powered tractors will be on the market so I don’t have to worry about all that nonsense. Of course there will be a bunch of new rubbish with electricity.
What a gluten for punishment. Glad I bought a Kubota.
LOVE my Kubota B3200......
They refuse to correct my 3025. I don’t have an oil leak but I want the issue corrected regardless. I don’t use my tractor much so I don’t stress it too bad. I still want it to remain without issues but they continue to refuse my request.
They told us they were putting the supports under the ones that were leaking. This one did have the supports. I agree ALL of these tractors need the braces.
@@DeepSouthHomestead for sure man! What happens when I build and move onto the property where the tractor is (in a barn) and it's out of warranty and THEN I develop an oil leak??!
I should have listened. I should have bought orange.
Best resolution is never buy an ls......and only buy kubota..
Lol
Even the American assembled tractors depend on overseas suppliers for the diesel engines, sometime transaxles, and electronic components. Smaller Cummins and Cat engines are made overseas.
As for the higher prices that Green and Orange tractors cost, you get a bit more of it back when you go to sell a well maintained unit. Off brand tractors may not be taken in trade by some dealers.
You,r old tractor looks good but I have a 150 Massey Ferguson that my dad bought in 1965 put in lots of crops been in the shop 1 time to be overhauled 10 years ago I mow with it every day in the summer or anything else that needs to be done.good luck.
Hope it works out!
You got screwed and continue to do business with the company. Smart.
I was told to avoid LS for a few years , till they learn how to build tractors, and get a better dealer network . Looking to replace my old JD 300 , but it's a good tractor, other than being underpowered , 7000 lb. tractor with a little 135 ci engine
Oh my.
Good luck Danny, maybe everything will go your way this time around.
Thats great Danny
At lease u have a loner.Hopefully they can get the bugs worked out of yours.God Bless.
After all the issues you had with the XR3035 I would say let LS keep that one and stick with the XG3025
It seems these tractors are sold up north too. I am in New York and when I shared your first video on FB, I found out a friend of a friend has one. I don’t know what model or if he’s got any issues as he didn’t tag back on the post. But I did just share this one also.
Hello! Just found these videos as we are experiencing the same stalling issues on our LS3037. Did you ever find out what was the problem? The tech suggested that the ECU was faulty and needed to be replaced.
Frame brace between the transmission and front axle ,never ran a tractor without one
What’s the odds they’d bring your old one back! Hope they got it lined out
LOL Bring you your old tractor. My fingers are crossed but not holding my breath.
Dealers will only go so far in repairs, even at their own expense, LS sounds to me like they only support the dealers to a certain extent as well. It all comes down to customer service and dealer support. LS is certainly a tractor that appears to have more bang for the buck as compared to traditional common name brands, but if they don’t run what good are they? It’s apparent that the real problem is the emissions controls like any modern truck!or equipment. We all want to be conscious of the environment but this crap they are mandating is overboard; Diesel engines today and fuels are cleaner than they ever have been I would look into a delete system and toss that emissions crap then your tractor will run like it should.
Great tractors but not well engineered. Restart after running out of fuel is very difficult. I am going back to my Kubota.
sounds good
439 hours on the clock, how many of them were yours?
43.9 With a new engine they can run the hours back .
And if you think another color of tractor will make your life blissful, think again. I have JD2025R that only has 35 hours on it and it has no less that 10, count them 10, service calls on it already. After all the crap with it, i decided to write a review of my experience with it on JDs website and they pulled it down. You damn sure wouldn't want perspective customer seeing the truth and reality would you ? That speaks volumes. You can bet they will never get another dime of my money. The reality is that EVERY small ( under 100 hp ) tractor , no matter the color , is made offshore and then shipped in a crate to the USA and assembled from that crate. That includes JD and Kubota. Made in the USA my ass. If you don't believe it, do some research and educate yourself. When you buy a tractor, you are not buying a color, you are buying the dealer network. If LS / Kyoti / Mahindra / ect had big dealer networks, JD and Kubota would be in big trouble.
Did it fox the problem? I’m looking at a used one
Nice of them to finally do something about the tractor problem. Lets hope they put some time and money into R&D and fix the issues it has. Crossing my fingers you come out with a good tractor when this is all done. :)
Ironic!! 🤣🤣🤣
You cannot ignore computers on Tractors, especially if they are equipped with Emissions for Regeneration. I would take the Dealer giving me my new and improved Loaner (old Trade-m Tractor), as a slap on the face. I would have bought a Trailer and parked that Tractor across the Street from the Dealer with a Banner that said: "Broken" Best of Luck with the Repairs.
As long as they left you a loaner, I think it doesn't matter much. They fixed for themselves, that is sad service.
You need your cash back.
You usually get what you pay for. If they send you another tractor and it says LS you have yourself another piece of crap tractor and then it'll be a new saga of videos, emails to LS in comments......Cut your losses and to heck with them Danny. Your knowledge of living on a small farm and the experience you share is awesome. This tractor stuff just isn't IMHO.
Start up a Kioti tractor dealership in your area.
I see they got you a loaner and from what I understood from the oil leak issue was that they came out with a fix for them towards the middle of the year in 2018 and from what I'm seeing that was after the swap to the XR3135 sorry to hear you've had issues with your current machine. At least hey have gotten you a loaner to use and will get your XR3135 fixed and back to you as soon as they get it fixed.I have learned through the years that it doesn't matter what color it is they all have some issues, I've had excellent service out of the 4 LS tractors that I own and wouldn't blink a eye at buying another tomorrow if I was in the market for a new machine. Best of luck
So I see you went to Kubota. But whatever happened to the LS? What was the final verdict? I didn't see any follow up videos between this one and the we went orange one.
Oh My, Danny & Wanda, You're having so much trouble w/tractors.. I can't believe that they left you Your Old Trade-In... I think that this company is jacking you around... This is ridiculous to keep going over the SAME issues Over & Over Again... (smh)
If all the issues aren't fixed? They deserve to give you a brand new that's not a lemon. I pray this one works great. They should give you some money back for all the hassle.
sounds like someone is trying to get a new tractor out of the deal
Get your money back and the old tractor if its fixed.🙂
Good luck I hope this one works well for you until maybe you get your lemon back.That it will not be a lemon anymoe for the last time.You'll see,right.They should of gave you an upgrade even just until they brought back the lemon.Hope this one doesn't leak for ya.Be well you all.♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡......
Your LS tractor is jinxed because you have a Ford pickup in your drive way.
Have you ever considered a John Deere or a Kubota? Nothing runs like a Deere...
Work with your dealer and document everything you do eventually they will make you happy
Buying anything other than ls
At what point will you switch dealers or brands? You have been swindled and your patience has been taken advantage of by your dealer.
Interested in seeing if the new frame fixed the oil leak on your old tractor and I hope they fix your new tractor. Take care.
After seeing two of your bad luck videos, I’m convinced you biggest problem os not LS, it’s the dealer / service dept who can’t see that you really have a bad problem. They just try to get it back to you.
