Harvest nightmare: the brand new corn head is a mess!

- We just got our brand new corn head and it might be the biggest piece of junk we’ve ever bought. The combine is already acting up as well. Will we ever get anything done?
Between Deere’s over use of electronics, shoddy workmanship in the factory, and a dealer who should have inspected that new corn head pre delivery all spells major trouble that should never happen!
Carl, those new heads are shipped vertically and attached to a steel shipping frame, and stored at dealer same way, explains the accumulation of dirt underneath and the paint rubs. What’s concerning is that head was obviously not pre checked at all by your dealer prior to delivery. That’s unacceptable! I’m a 76 year old farmer, seen a lot in my day, obvious to me your dealer failed you totally, and Deere quality has gone down considerably. Their greatly increased use of electronics has caused way too many issues with tractors, combines and planters. Last spring there were numerous headaches with their planters because of electronics, lost valuable planting time. Deere needs to get their act together!
You couldn't of said that better my friend
Sorry you are having so much trouble to start off the harvest. It is a real shame that there is a lack of pride in workmanship and service these days. I do pray that you have a safe and successful harvest in the end. Stay safe and God bless.
I’m going to mirror everyone else’s sentiment. Your dealer should be ashamed of themselves. Hopefully that’ll be the end of the problems. Thanks for sharing, Carl. Another great video.
Man I would have been pissed! Super interesting on emergence. Thanks for sharing
'Not the ideal day' yes but you pay for something better than that - props for pushing through and staying positive.
Working out a few bugs at the start of harvest is par for the course. It looks like you found a whole swarm of bugs this time. Hope things improve for you soon. Thanks for the video Carl!
Good luck combining your 2022 crops
Sorry that You are having trouble. I know that Farm Machinery is Expensive to fix. My Parents are retired now, but We used to raise Chickens for People to eat. We always had The Occasional Beak Down. I understand what You are going through. Best of luck on fixing it.
Personally, I always ran all IH then Case IH. Never had such shoddy issues as those. My dealer wouldn’t let any machine out the door that had not been thoroughly inspected, adjusted, cleaned, paint touched up, lubricated, test run, prior to delivery. They always had a tech in my field on first run day to make sure all was correct.
You seem remarkably good natured about this so far. Off camera were you fuming mad? Interesting thought that the electronics that many are complaining about are not the problem. The dealer owes you a big explaination about that head.
Rust and wore off is from shipping crate as they are shipped on edge.
Wow, your job is quite the adventure! Thanks for posting.
Great video Carl
Quality workmanship has suffered last decade or so. You got a good attitude since downtime is costing money.
Geez, that’s a NEW piece of equipment! Oh hell no.
Wow that's some pretty shotty workmanship, is there another jd dealer around there. If I was a part of that dealership I'd be so embarrassed.
Probably assembled by scabs when Deere was on strile.
We had the exact same problem with our new head. Apparently it's more of I widespread issue than we thought
You may get a number of excuses why there are problems with the new corn head, but when it is harvest time and the clock is running, only one thing counts and that is performance. I would be looking for reliability data on Deere and competitive equipment and be talking to people who make other colors of equipment and make sure the Deere dealer knows and understands that. It reminds me of an old southern saying, "that dog won't hunt".
I have neighbors and friends with red equipment and I’m convinced green is still best
@@dodgebrothersfarmandranch9206 They certainly one of the best. In my view the dealer failed as well. Unless they worked around the clock from when it hit the lot until delivery to you and it came wit a list of exceptions, their standards are lacking. They need to get that message! That was part of my point.
That is really unfortunate that JD did that didn't try to make your new head experience a better effort. As much as equipment costs it shouldn't have rust or dirt on the new piece. Unfortunately we just lost a john deere store of 75 yes to corporate who wants to make 1 large company to have so many store that they have forgotten customer service
Your head was stored and transported vertical, explains the wear marks on the water ponding under snoots.
Just unacceptable. With the prices they get for this equipment it should be top notch.
That corn head should never gotten out the factory door!
and the way it looks, I am not sure what year it came out the factory door and yes I have read the many other comments.
To me it looks like a reman/franken head built from odds and ends to get a 'new' head out the door.
Hello from hurricane ravaged Sarasota Florida
No idea how much a header costs but if I bought something new and it was in that kind of shape for that amount of money ... My anger would be at stroke level.
Can you give the name of the yield picture app. Looks like a great tool.
I typed out a message and then I deleted it… If that was on my dime… sigh!
Best to stop here.
❤❤❤
My wife just walked in fussing at me. Oh boy!
I guess Electronic and Computized systems are supposed to make things better, but they can be a real headache if they don't work like they are supposed to.
Well Deere has been on strike . Neighbors of ours don’t even have their equipment yet. I’m on my second Chevy truck this year so I think it’s the new norm . ???
I work for a Deere Dealership and we have been having some issues with the new equipment, and a lot of the same things happening with your head has been happening with others as well right from factory
I’m in Texas. Sure wished I had a Dodge Bros.cap to wear 😊
Boy, JD quality control is not good!! That’s very disappointing for what they cost. Your Dealer really let you down IMO! Deere better shape up!!!!
Well I would say you definitely ended up with a deere that's got that chronic wasting disease, hopefully deere makes it right ,but it honestly shouldn't have even been sold in that condition but ya better have something lined up because you can probably guess the outcome of this disaster,
Poor seed quality on the soybean seeds, looks like another maturity variety got mixed in the batch
Wow I'd tell em to take that green piece of junk and stick it
Send it back. We all work way to hard for our money. There is no excuse.
Someone with red is having the same problems with there stuff they said they weren't the only one
Good content. 👍
Id be sending that head back. That's ridiculous
Paint issues were probably from the crate/stand it was shipped on.
I hate to say this but it may be time to upgrade to IH. We run JD with the exception of our combine which is red and white. I can't imagine how disappointing that is for you.
It's ok you can say it Case IH is far better company then JD its just a fact
Personally, I would demand it be replaced by a new one!
I agree but no guarantee the replacement will be any better.
It took them a year to make this one ☝️
Looks like maybe it's a not so new head, or just new to you...
Deere factory quality control has serious issues!
time to go RED
Absolutely
Time to upgrade to a Drago Corn header.
I would like to know the app for the kernel count
I'm pretty sure all JD combines and heads are made in China now. Seems all they make in the US anymore is mowers and small tractors.
Totally wrong!
@@lonepine5596 I goofed. Majority are made in US with some from Germany too. I misread an article talking about how some JD's tractors are assembled in China. Still, from the problems shown on this head in the video, it makes me wonder.
Perhaps this is another reason to buy red, and not green. Walker Farms has this atitude. And, I am surprised that MillennialFfarmer still sticks with John Deere.
one of the biggest reason is that MF has a dealership in their back yard.
With what those things cost that was ridiculous.
As long as you were shut down did you find out what's wrong with your fuel or did you call back to check that out
I would send it back, that shouldn’t be considered a new front. I think JD are losing the plot
The GMO corn and beans are bringing bad luck.
"Nothing runs like a deer", I didn't know they meant the fluids all over the ground.
Deere has lost all credibility it's time to make the switch
John Deere, as a company needs to reflect on what made them the best American made ag-equipment manufacturer worldwide. I know that lenders have failed to recognize that the quality of the equipment reduces maintenance and retains value far longer than other manufacturers. Lenders make money on input financing and less on equipment. They should be examining this as well. And John Deere should be shouting from the "roof top" the value of their equipment. So poor marketing on Deere's part has affected the company's ability to afford quality control and supervision of labor. Short-sighted on each party... and who pays the price? The American farmer.
Seems like you should be getting a new head, for free
Time for a red combine?
Amen
@@Thebigtipper101 my brother is a farmer and is green everywhere except his red combine.
Looks like Deere hired a bunch of former Burger King employees. Just go ahead and call your local CaseIH dealer.
You can't change these brain washed Deere brains. It's green or nothing !! They will pay that extra money just to say I own a Deere !!
John Deere have the head made in chyna?
Seems that this is a this year is something going on it seems like everybody's having this problem I don't know if it's the GMO that they messed up this year or something that went on but everybody seems to be having this exact same problem between at least 10 to 15 different channels that I watch and obviously there's thousands and thousands of farms out there so it's just a 15 or so that I watch you're having this problem and I'm talking about the exact same problem All Over America from one end to the other you got to imagine all the other forms that are not on CZcams or having the same problems and then you got to wonder why is it just this year that these things are like this something happen and the shop the manufacturing of these things I mean something right seems like something just as weird about all this especially since everybody's having the same deal and let's face it when most people are using the same you know seats for the most part so it's a little strange and it's actually very strange
That's what happens when you get product from another country you never know what brand or what germination or length of days it could be all mixed up you could have 90 day you could have 120 day all in the same bag is what I'm trying to say
It's all that electronic crap!
Could be an ex - demonstrator head
Is there a lemon law on corn heads? That head is terrible.
I am not even sure you can call those a John Deere issue, kid of sounds like more of a John Deere dealership issue. Seems like you might have got a head that someone else returned.
It’s both! Deere factory and Deere dealer. Both should be busting their asses to make it right!
bummer
Hi Dodge
Looks like you bought the brand.
Green is no longer what it once was!
All of the problems you are having do not speak very well for your local John Deere dealer. I would be absolutely livid and on someone's butt big time. Completely unacceptable.
Deere has really gone down hill since 2005 we run 4 9250s and 2 S790s and those 9250s blow away the competition Deere is 40 years behind in the rotary combines
Everything is so messed up nowdays, no matter what you try to buy its a problem, yep build back better 👎👎
If it ant red leave it in the shed
Your hard to listen to
