Can someone advise whether to replace LG compressor or get a new fridge
Posted On: April 27, 2023

Our LG french door refrigerator stopped cooling this past Sunday.


The fridge section is about 55 degrees F and not sure on the freezer temp, but its not freezing.


Model#: LMXS30776S.


The fridge is only 5 years old.


We had a appliance repair guy out here and provided a estimate of $1800 for the compressor replacement.


Does that price seem fair? Never thought it would be that high!.


Do we call another appliance repair shop or purchase a new fridge?


Question from user cmaniac45z54 at Appliances at reddit.


Answer:


Call LG at 1-800-243-0000.


If under 5 years it's free,over 5 to to 10 years $550.


INSIST THEY CHANGE THE FRESH FOOD (refrigerator) EVAPORATOR while replacing compressor.
