I'm on the market for a new fridge. Glad I found this out and can eleminate LG as an option. I have a Frigidaire that I bought USED 35 YEARS ago that's finally starting to have issues. THIRTY FIVE years ago, used, so it's at least forty years old.
@@A3Kr0nyes. Every kind of LG appliance is terrible except for their front load load washers and dryers which are surprisingly one of the best. I’m a repair tech.
This is true. Happened to me! 5 month old new LG fridge. Compressor broke and technician told me it would happen again if i replaced it. He said LG has the worst rates. For every 20 LG compressors he fixes, he only gets 1 call from other brands combined. LG knows they are selling junk. Lesson learned: dont buy LG. Hope this makes them stop selling junk
there is no quality anymore in the so-called "global" garbage. but the prices certainly don't reflect the lack of quality or follow up service. you are usually met with "that's the customer's problem" We miss the old local quality and service. Makes you very cynical! We have experienced the lake of service people who told us they wouldn't touch the fridge we needed repaired.
Lowe's 15 year sales person almost sold me a LG fridge last week stating best service ugh. Bought a used Samsung that was 2 years old & its a nightmare ive had the last 3 years! Its obvious that companies want to sell throw away products 😡 but moving a refrigerator in & out of my small doorways, & up stairs, is beyond ridiculous!!!
This lawsuit needs to include people like me who bought their LG fridge back in 2016, our compressor failed right at the 5 year mark and we couldn't get it fixed under warranty!

I bought an LG before I knew about this. Ticking time bomb?

That happened to us in Canada. We also lost our food and they couldn’t get anyone out in our region to fix it so we were forced to buy another fridge
Same here

Don't buy LG
I’ve heard the same thing. No one in my area will touch a Samsung or LG. Now we are seeing this in other MFGs using the same crap components.

There's not a lot left in this country I don't hate. Have a great day.
They're on sale now and I was about to purchase it last night. Removing it from my cart.
