      Purchased minn kota ulterra ip link mdi. $200 to install already $3199 in + $200. Took it to the lake the transducer didn't work after 4hrs trouble shooting, I called Minn kota 10 minute phone call. I was told to contact Humminbird. After another hour of troubleshooting fish finder was fine. Called minn kota back. They gave me a service center to take it to, but I would have to remove the trolling motor from my boat. ******* center said they needed motor in it's entirety, mount and everything. Another $200 to remove a defective product. When and if I ever get it back another $200 to reinstall. A total rip off.

      Hello *****,Thank you for your feedback. After reading through the voice and text conversations you had with the Minn Kota and Humminbird support staff, it appears your MDI transducer built-in to the Ulterra IP Link 80 lb, 60" shaft motor, is possibly the culprit in not providing accurate depth measurements. In order for proper diagnosis to occur, the trolling motor needs to be removed from your boat and brought to a service center. We understand this can be an inconvenience and we apologize for that. To prevent you from having to pay those extra fees in the future should you need service on it, we suggest you may want to install a quick release bracket after you get your motor back. Your motor will accept a black or white colored polypropylene (starboard material) to match the color of your boat. I added the links to our website so you can look at them and buy it from us or shop around online using our item numbers I hope this helps.********************************************************************************************************************************************* *********************************************************************************************************************************************

      I will take the defective trolling motor back to Bass Pro for a replacement. Less than 30 days. The only reason I'm doing this is for my humminbird network. I'm doubtful that this will do any better as I no longer have any confidence in Minn kota products. But I think its the best solution for me money wise. Thank God for Bass Returns.!!!

      Hello *****,That is a good solution considering the motor is that new. Please consider getting the quick release bracket if you get another Ulterra.Kind Regards,*****

      **************** is very rude. They never have parts and tell you it's not their problem. The trolling motor is very unreliable. I've had Many fishing trips destroyed due to the poor quality of minn kota products. I'll never buy anything from them again. Takes weeks to get anything from them.

      I needed a 1 inch shift I got a 3/4 inch shift I call Minn Kota about it and they are tiring to tell me that the shift they sent me is a 1 1/8 then why is a 1 inch cap to big for a 1 1/8 inch shift ???? That's the kind of people you have to deal with ( ****)

      **** dollar 2.6 year old motor that nobody wants to service. Minnkota customer service *****. And there's no repair centers within 2 and half hour from here and that center won't return my calls. The terrovq is junk and so is Minnkota.

      Hello *****************************,We are sorry to hear you are experiencing issues with your trolling motor. We can see from our call records yesterday, you bought a circuit board and tried to resolve the issue yourself but it did not work. You may need a new steering housing in addition to the circuit board. However, without having a trained ************************* diagnose the root cause you might be spending money on parts you do not need. We are sorry the nearest service center is 2.5 hours away from you. However, using your zip code I found several Authorized Servicing Dealers within 30 miles of you. Please use this link to locate one to call nd ask if they have the expertise to diagnose and repair your motor.***************************************************************************************************************** Thank you.
