Frigidaire is such massive, steaming, flaming shit. I got a brand new refrigerator of theirs back in 2014. Wanted name brand so I skipped the Hotpoint Huge mistake.
Turns out Hotpoint isn't so bad, but Frigidaire is designed to fall apart in months. After six months, both door handles and the rail that supports the crisper drawer broke clean off. Replaced the rail only because the other stuff was not essential. The rail was a thin flimsy POS. And it cost a fortune. Broke again six months later. I just set the drawer on a shelf and never worried about it ever again.
Sounds on par with them for sure.
Try working with them...I was a technical advisor for my company certified by Nortek to fix their problems on site. Every 9 out of 10 furnaces I worked on had cold solder joints on their control board.
Reported it and brought about 20 boards with me to st Louis to physically show them instead of all the pictures.
I was told I'm. Ot am engineer, and don't look to far into things. Replace the board and move on
I was flabbergasted that they didn't care they had a serious quality issue. Then we ran into every furnace having leaking heat exchangers because they can't mold metals properly. Another HUGE issue that never got resolved. Check fixes with bebt metal clips to prop the sagging heat exchanger. Terrible fix that didn't even work
