I would litigate this in small claims court where attorneys cannot represent parties.
The dealers are in IN, the state where I live, and I am not licensed in IN. As a result, I could proceed pro se while MF would be required to send company personnel to defend. It is highly unlikely that they would do so and would likely default. I probably will not do so as I have better things to do with my time.
I would claim unfittness for intended purpose and dare them to defend against a lifetime mechanic who has also been a design engineer, warranty analysis engineer and failure analysis engineer for GM, not to mention an attorney (AS, BS, MBA, JD).
I could also claim breach of contract against the dealer (for the repair work) but do not wish to do so so long as I own the tractor because they are the only nearby dealer.
I do plan to sell the tractor after repairing the leaks (myself) as I can no longer rely on it. I will likely replace it with a Kubota as I have a Kubota B1750HST bought new in 1993 that has needed absolutely no work of any kind aside from routine oil/filter changes.
