I bought a LG fridge 3 years old the compressor went out I was told by the tech never buy this brand they are known for the compressor going out. The price to fix it was $ 1,300.00. Bought a new one. Is the law suite still going on?

Our concerns are minor.
1) The doors are heavy with food items and do not close firmly when pushed. Sometimes either the freezer or the refrigerator door hangs open. When whacked firmly the freezer door bounces open!.
2) Why doesn’t our refrigerator have wheels?

We bought an LG refrigerator in December 2017. After 2 years (Spring 2020), the ice maker started to go out, and soon afterward the freezer was not working, as well as the refrigerator. We contacted LG who scheduled an LG repairman to look at the unit. When he came, he said the compressor was fine, but the circuit board was bad, so he ordered a new one, but LG sent him the wrong part, which he discovered a week later when he came to install it. He took a picture of the old one, sent it to LG Tech service, who sent the correct circuit board. Problem fixed? Nope. A year later, the ice maker starts going bad again. A few weeks later, the food in the fridge is going bad, as well as food in freezer. My husband put a thermometer in the fridge and the temperature was 50 degrees F. He called LG, who contacted the repair service, who sent a technician down 1 week later. Compressor was fine. He ordered other parts that he thought could be causing the issue. 3 weeks later he returns with the parts, but realizes that something else must be wrong. So, he takes off the interior back panel in the freezer and discovers the heating coils started to melt the plastic in the back of the freezer! Yes…a true fire could have started eventually. He contacted the LG technician (corporate) and sent via text a picture of the burned plastic. Tech says the unit is unrepairable. So…what does LG offer us? A check for less than what we paid for it (aka depreciation) even though a similar model today costs twice as much as what we paid in 2017. We are completely disappointed in how LG does not care about the customer when they KNOW that their refrigerators have many issues. Do not buy LG.

I bought my side by side LG in 02/28/16.Both freezer and frig side not cooling.It took 3 techs to finally replace the Linear Compressor and other things they didn’t explain to me but I was so happy the refrigerator was working that I didn’t join the Class Action lawsuit and this was 09/23/20.Well on 03/18/22,both sides again stop cooling.Thats 1 year a half years.Called LG and was given 3 places to call but LG didn’t tell me I had to pay $125 to get a diagnosis and another $250 for labor.Im on disability,so I would have to wait until April the third so I could pay that amount.Also since it was past the five yr warranty,I couldn’t get a reimbursement for food loss.I told LG and I was told they would do a “ONE-TIME GOODWILL” cause of hard times.They called 03/24/22 and sit up an appt for the next day but if it wasn’t a MANUFACTURER PROBLEM,I would have to pay.Im praying it’s a MANUFACTURER PROBLEM cause this whole thing with this LG refrigerator has been a nightmare!I keeping my fingers crossed!

I bought my LG refrigerator in 2018. It is 2022 and it has stopped cooling. Of course, the warranty ran out and frankly I’m not spending any more money on it. it is an LG lfxs24623s. It has French doors and an ice maker that doesn’t work half the time (3 years at least). I was going to try and get it fixed but, why spend $1000 on it when I can buy new for that amount. FYI, my Whirlpool beer/garage fridge which I traded for is exactly 20 years old manufactured in March 2002 and saved all my food that would have gone bad. LG you should be aiming for this standard of quality! Bye Felicia!
