Frigidaire Side by Side Refrigerator (model #PLHS237ZCB1)

by Can we fix anything in America?
(South Shore, Mass)

I bought my side by side Frigidaire/Electrolux refrigerator in 2003 and it has been freezing food in lower half of refrigerator.


At first it seemed like an easy problem even thought I might fix it myself because blogs seemed to indicated damper control or thermostat.

I received no help from Frigidaire customer service. So I called a repair service. I called the repair service of the place where I bought the appliances. Y.E.s, a big appliance dealer in south Boston, Ma.

Well, that was on May 23rd. And every week since a new repair person comes back to work on the problem. They never come with parts and one repair person doesn't know what happened on the last call. So I just called Frigidaire and they basically said they don't expect refrigerators to last a lifetime. 8 Years old, I guess is a lifetime.

So if you like new appliances and like to replace them every 8 years get a Frigidaire.

By the way, this was a family of two, sometime three using this appliance. Stainless steel. It is so OLD it doesn't even have a scratch on it.

I have the same one bought new and is just now sounding like the motor or fan is struggling to start and goes on often. Started by noticing it freezing my eggs and veggies. But got 28yrs so will likely by frigidaire.

Exactly the same story for me.

I was told to just go and buy a new fridge.

Well, the next one will NOT be a Frigidaire.
