Not anything I own currently, and not a farm tractor, but when I was growing up we had a 1989 Cub Cadet 1315 lawn tractor. That was probably the most unreliable tractor I've ever had the displeasure of using. It had the Kohler command 12.5 engine which was always hard starting, especially in cooler weather. A few years into owning it, the governor gear grenaded inside the engine, and we had to tear it down to put a new governor in it.
It ate belts like it was designed to do so. All of the 3 belts wore out nearly every year. This is mowing about an acre of slightly sloped lawn once a week.
The mower deck was insanely loud. It sounded like an airplane taking off, and it tore up spindle bearings like nobody's business.
The only part of the tractor that didn't cause us problems was the 5 speed manual transmission.
We struggled with it for about a dozen years then sent it down the road.
