Product: John Deere - Deere & Company 2018 1025R (1025R Brake Failure (Bellcrank LVU31387: Front Brake Bellcrank) Part Number: LVU31387). Incident: John Deere - Deere & Company Cause: 1025R Brake Bellcrank Failure 2018 1025R Tractor Routine task that has taken place since I purchased the tractor in 2018. I was driving down to the barn I engaged the brake and the brake pedal hits the deck and nothing happens. I pump it again and nothing. I tap the reverse pedal, but the engine dies. I have no power and no brake, and I am on a hill. I was on a path with horse corrals on either side and a tack room with a railroad tie (used for securing horses while we tack and untack them). To the right of that is another horse stall. Behind that is another hill that goes down to the bottom tier of the property. I was out of control and tried lowering the rear box blade to slow us down, but it had little effect. I crashed into the railroad tie, which was set in concrete and then hit the tack room. I went into shock.
