  • Washer failure, LG warranty doesn't cover repair

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this washer 9 months ago for a new home. It's worked fine until very recently when it started giving an error message at the start of most loads. We contacted LG support and before they would ever send a tech they sent us a video telling us to take the impeller out of the bottom to make sure nothing was stuck in it and of course there wasn't. After that, they sent a service tech out who told us the motor needs to be replaced. LG will not send more than one tech to move the machine and do the repair even though two were needed to bring it into the house and upstairs to the laundry area. I spoke to a manager at LG and they said they will only pay for the service company to send one tech for any appliance repair. I think its ridiculous to already need a motor replacement on a 9 month old washing machine that is only used in a household of two people, and even more ridiculous that the warranty doesn't even cover sending enough manpower to do the needed repair. This will be my last purchase of any LG product ever.

    This machine has a huge capacity and you fill the detergent and softener reservoirs and it will tell when you need to refill them again. You don't have to add detergent to every load
