Our ** refrigerator stopped working on its 2 yr anniversary. to the exact date of purchase. it had a 5 year warranty on internal issues. ** refused to send a service person saying they did not have one in our area.What?! we're in the heart of ** .. not far from any urban center or suburban center. ** gave me a list of 8 service centers. Suddenly it's MY job? 2 no longer serviced **, 2 didn't answer, 2 had full voicemail inbox, 2 never returned a call. I found a local repair person who went thru ** to get certified parts. He replaced the entire unit twice. ** has cost us $400+ in food loss, expensive in buying water, enormous inconvenience, rental of emergency freezer unit. and still 38 days later. I asked ** to now replace the unit and they refuse. So we not only need to be re-imbursed for the refrigerator, but the above costs as well.Business Response

Our home burned down in a CA Wildfire. We had to replace everything. On 2/14/22, we purchased an ** Fridge from *********** It took a while to deliver but once it was delivered we noticed that the French door was leaking A LOT of air causing the fridge temp to be irregular. We were advised by ********** to use the Protection Plan in error who later advised us that the appliance was still under warranty by the manufacturer which is why it wasn't until 7/2/22 that we contacted ** CLM# CNN220702235000, pictures of the part was provided. No response received. C/B on 7/16/22 advised that 1 day after our initial call it was determined that the Rep ordered the wrong part but no one called us back. So I was advised the correct part was being ordered. C/B on 7/18/22 s/w *** **** CNN220718626465 advised that the part still wasn't ordered correctly; it's the Mullion Flap. Part was ordered but only after me initiating contact. C/B on 8/3/22 advised that part was rejected since a Service Tech must come out but that Service tech was initiated **** RNN220804099547. C/B today on 8/5 to be told that the previous Rep didn't give the Service Tech my correct phone # to contact me even though it was verified every single call. I have zero faith in my issue being resolved. Also, each & every call asked if I wanted to leave a Survey response but the **************** Reps intentionally put the calls on hold so that I would hang up & bypass survey, 1 Rep even transferred me to Best Buy phone # to avoid me leaving my opinion. The Reps used words like "No worries", "it's the least I can do," "this is not a problem", & "oh sure sure" but it was obvious that they didn't care about the Customer's concerns because not 1 rep did their job correctly. I paid for the brand new fridge, I need the fridge to work properly, and the amount of time I have spent trying to get this 1 issue resolved has RUINED my opinion of purchasing ** products in the future.Business Response

Complaint: 17686948
I am rejecting this response because: even as we speak, I have conflicting contact messages sent from *** Every time I follow up on the same issue I am advised something different. Yesterday I spoke with a **************** Rep who said they could not get ANY service technician to come out to install the mullion flat. So, she was forwarding my concern to the cancellation/refund department. Then this morning I get some type of text message (which is amazing since ** gave my wrong phone # to the prior service tech) stating, "We are still looking for a provider to come as quickly as possible. You will be notified when an appointment is confirmed Ref# RNN220809024446." I cannot get a straight answer from LG Electronics. My frustration is: (1) where was all of this follow up communication during the first 6 calls? (2) Why does everyone keep passing the buck and changing the direction of my service request? (4) ** is a HUGE organization so why doesn't any appliance technicians want their business? I have been paying for my refrigerate to cool my kitchen, by leaking the refrigerator air through the door, which is causing the refrigerator motor to overwork and reduce the life of the refrigerator. Plus it's costing my electric bill to increase because it's 100+ degrees here in **********. My request is, whatever LG Electronics is going to do, stick to it and stop giving customers the run around and advising them that you've got it all figured out.....when you don't. We purchased a new refrigerator for a reason and this has been a complete waste of time & money.

I am rejecting this response because: ** finally ordered the part and shipped it to me but has not scheduled a technician to install the part. This mullion flap has to be installed into other parts and I have no idea how to take a refrigerator apart to install it. I was already told their are no technicians willing to come to my home.

I am rejecting this response because: Ihave no idea who to call for this type of repair. We lost everything we own, including our home, to a ********** Wildfire, last year. We're in a totally new city which is why we had to replace our refrigerator. This situation is completely unorthodox. You sell refrigerators and ask the customer to recommend someone to fix it? Mean time it's 110+degrees here, my fridge doors haven't closed correctly since i purchased it, it's probably overworking the refrigerator engine, and ** is doing nothing. I can't install the part, so maybe you should be sending me a new refrigerator? This just baffles my mind.

I am rejecting this response because: none of this is true coming from *** On numerous occasions, I was told an appointment was scheduled for a technician to installthe part and then advised by ************* that no techniciams were available near my home area. This is exhausting and in EXTREMELY poor taste for a large corporation. This is the 1st year of purchase, I also purchased an extended warrenty which can't take effect until they get this resolved. I don't know how ** stays in business selling broken appliances and not backing up their product.

On January 22, 2022, I purchased an ** Microwave oven Model#MSWN1590l / 00 (10TTAHQA **** from ******** The microwave cost $169.00; and it worked as expected. I registered the item on **s site on January 24, 2022. It also was a great match to my other ** appliances as I have a ** refrigerator and gas range. On July 11th the microwave stop heating any food or water. I followed the instructions from the app as suggested to complete troubleshooting to see if it was something that could be fixed by me. I did everything that I was told to do and still NO Heat from the microwave. After completing the Service Request for the 2nd time, I received an email stating they issue cannot be fixed and I will receive a refund after I perform the steps for another service request...I did as told and still no refund, nor any additional communication about the refund.Although I am within the warranty period as it has not been 1 year since purchased, all ** customer service can do for me is give me the run around. One time I was told to wait for another email with a code so that I can take the oven to Fed Ex for shipping and received this confirmation number from ** customer service rep: ************************ got the email with the Express Code they said I would get. T next day, I called back, still the same run-around about the refund. Earlier this week, I called again and this time I got the same run-a-round including do the troubleshooting one more time; and I refused.I just want my money back. I have provided them proof of purchase, I have ran their test and checks way too many times and the oven no longer heats ....the warranty should be honored without the intentional stress - the thing no longer works and I would like my money back pronto please.

Also, each & every call asked if I wanted to leave a Survey response but the Customer ********************** Reps intentionally put the calls on hold so that I would hang up & bypass survey, 1 Rep even transferred me to Best Buy phone # to avoid me leaving my opinion. The Reps used words like don't worry, no problem, oh sure sure but it was obvious that they didn't care about the Customer's concerns. I paid for the brand new fridge, I need the fridge to work properly, and I think the amount of time I have spent trying to get this 1 issue resolved ruining my opinion of purchasing ** products in the future.Customer Answer

Better Business Bureau:
I would like to withdraw this complaint ID 17677698 in it's entirety. I accidentally selected the incorrect company's name (similar naming) in error when filing my compliant. It has been corrected but I do NOT want this to be filed against the wrong business owner. Therefore, this matter has been resolved.
Sincerely,

We purchased an ** fridge less than 2 years ago and the compressor is failing. It does not freeze and is not cooling efficiently. ** gave my husband some possible repair places.
