didn't GM try to push this for their cars a couple years ago?
It will be a HUGE mess is it goes thru. Can you imagine if ALL tractor repairs had to go thru one of the OE dealers? You'd have to wait 6-12 months to get simple things done. WHo gets sued because their equipment broke down and deere couldn't get it fixed in time for planting or harvest? can you get insurance for that nonsense?
with deere going to fewer and bigger wallymart type dealers you have less selection to get stuff fixed and less leverage to give the dealer incentive to do a good job quickly and for a reasonable price.
who will police this? IF you have a local dealer that wants your business back they're not going to turn you in to mother deere but then mother deere may not honor your warranty. BIG mess.
definitely will be buyer-be-ware at auctions on newer stuff. a reason to lease equipment and turn in before the warranty is up.
around here its hard to find good help let alone help that knows which end of the screw driver to hold on to. Where will the dealers get the staff of qualified mechanics to do the work?
i see the OE side of the safty stuff. if some idiot didn't fix something and someone got hurt regardless, unfortunately, the OE company would get sued.
