Yes i had the same issue for approx 3 days. I was warned by the installers i would have this and i needed to fill up several glasses of water from the fridge for a couple days and it was stop. I put a piece of folded up paper towel at the bottom of the water dispenser and did as the installers suggested. After 2 maybe 3 days it no longer drips. Also throw out the first couple batches of ice that are made.

When I had my fridge installed, the technician told me to run about 2 gallons of water through the dispenser because of the air inside the line. The water will continue to drip until all the air has been removed. Hope this helps.

Had this same problem when we got ours. We ended up having to lower the water pressure coming into the refrigerator. We had the valve turned all the way on and it caused the water dispenser to leak and the connection under the kitchen sink to leak as well. Soon after turning the valve down it stopped.

We had the same issue the first day. But after you use it (dispense water) for cups, the dripping stopped the second day.

I have not had that problem but I would call best buy or samsung to replace it or repair it

We have had this for about a month and no leaks. Try teflon tape on the connections.
