      Our records indicate a service call was performed on 8-23-23 for a washer not spinning. A calibration test was performed and the washer failed the test. The suspension rods were ordered and replaced on 8-28-23 to prevent the tub from banging around in the housing. The customer was advised that the tub was a little louder than normal, and the tub may have been damaged due to bad suspension rods, depending on how long the unit was used with bad rods. A wash cycle was performed with clothes in the unit per **************'s work order. ********************* was not home either time service was provided. I spoke ************** yesterday personally. I asked her had she washed clothes since the repair? She stated no. I asked her to wash a load of clothes so she could see that the washing machine will wash, spin, and complete a cycle. She never called back. ************************* work order has a red sticker stating (special part order no refund) on it. She's aware the suspension rods had to be replaced first in order to balance the tub and run a cycle. The real question is how long was the washer used with the tub banging around before service was requested? In addition why not wash a load of clothes and correspond?

      I am rejecting this response because:

      The washer is not fixed . I washed some clothes early this morning when I got off work 8-30-2023 and this is the results below.

      1. It is making a very, very loud noise

      2. The washer stays locked during the whole complete cycle.

      3. Once finished I have to squeeze the water out of all my clothes..

      4. This was the main reason why I called City Boys R US my spin cycle was not draining the water off my clothes.

      5. After City Boys R US completed the work I still have this problem my clothes are full of water.

      6. Problem didn't get fixed.


      Sincerely,

      *********************

      We will not be redundant with this matter. The customer had not used the washer when I spoke with her yesterday, but found a way to complain about repair services that she didn't witness. In addition the suspension rods are under warranty. A simple call could've been made and we could've sent a technician out to verify any complaint. This entire situation is very suspect. Most people would call and schedule an additional appointment especially since the repair was recent and parts are under warranty. 

      Technical Manager,
