Deere responds to right-to-repair lawsuit

Deere has released an updated digital service tool to enable equipment owners to maintain, diagnose, repair and protect farm equipment.

The new Operations Center PRO Service tool is available now in John Deere’s Operation Center app to equipment owners in the U.S. and Canada at a cost of $195 per machine.

It appears to be Deere’s response to a lawsuit demanding the right to repair its machines.

The company has not revealed how it will price the tool for independent service providers.

The new service tool replaces John Deere’s previous digital service known as Customer Service ADVISOR. John Deere representatives confirm ADVISOR will be phased out over the next year.
