Faulty LG Compressor
We purchased a Kenmore Elite Grab and Go refrigerator from Sears in April of 2015. Last week our ice maker stopped working, and then a few days later the frig and freezer both stopped working. We contacted sears and was told that our warranty had expired. Sears scheduled a repair man to come out the following week, and offered us a warranty plan stating that we could pay $49 a month, with a $99 deductible, with parts covered and labor for up to $500. We accepted the plan. Even then because Sears does not do repairs on the weekend, therefore we had to spend $160 on a small freezer to salvage as much of our frozen food as possible. The following Monday we waited for the repair man for most of the day. Our appointment time was between 1pm and 5pm. The Sears repair man did not show up until around 6pm. He then informed us that our compressor was bad and that it would take a week for the repair work to be done. He then told us that we were expected to pay $99 for the visit, plus $146 dollars because the repair job exceeded the $500 limit. This information was slightly different from what we had been told by the person who sold us the warranty plan. When we called back a different representative told us that Sears only covers up to $500 for the total repair job. When I complained about the misinformation the warranty person on the phone offered me $500 towards the purchase of a new refrigerator from Sears. Is he kidding. Our frig is only 4 years old! To add insult to injury, the repair person told us "Your compressor is an LG compressor and these things are dropping like flies". When I questioned him about the brand of the replacement part, he informed us that he would be replacing the compressor with another LG compressor. I have been on the phone with Sears several times the past few days complaining about my refrigerator not working. Twice the warranty person on the phone attempted to schedule a walk through to sell us a new AC unit. Yet its been a week and our refrigerator still does not work. In addition to a small freezer we had to go out last night to purchase a small refrigerator. I called the corporate office this morning and was sent back to the same customer service number. Its frustrating because the English of the people we spoke with is not very good. The agents sound very rehearsed and appear to experts at not solving your problems.
