PSA- for Samsung washer owners
Posted on 12/24/16 at 11:28 am

Starting Jan 1 2017, many models will no longer be allowed to be repaired due to the recall. I came across one of these yesterday.
If you have a top-loading Samsung washer, check the model number here and see if your model is affected. They will provide replacement either monetarily or suitable model exchange.
You may also be eligible to be refunded for pump replacement and spring replacement as both were directly related to that is being recalled. (I know I have done dozens of spring and pump replacements)
Just wanted to tell owners of top load Samsungs (many of who have chimed in support for their model in Washer recommendation threads) to check the model and call Samsung asap if affected.

How does this happen with a washer? Are people riding them like a bull in the rodeo?

mostly people in apartments where they are in the kitchen.
On top of this there are reports some of the front loaders randomly burn up.
I have been wary of Samsung appliances for a while.

shite, the Samsung piece of shite washer, that I put to the road earlier this year when I got my Speed Queen, is probably on that list. I should've went full redneck and left it on my carport for 6 months and could've cashed in. I seriously wouldn't put another Samsung appliance in my home if you gave it to me. I'd turn around and sell it.

If I have one of these models but haven't had an issue yet what should I do right now?
Posted on 12/24/16 at 2:20 pm to Slim Chance
Except for a TV, you shouldn't own anything Samsung
Posted on 12/24/16 at 2:24 pm to Napoleon
"Don't make em like they used to" is usually nonsense.... except washer/dyers.
Even maytags are crap nowadays.

Has the FAA banned people from flying with these too?

Samsung frontloaders FTW
Posted on 12/24/16 at 4:11 pm to Napoleon
shite mine is 11 months old and on that list.
ETA: just wanted to add that I have their dryer too and had to replace the tension pulley after 5 months. It basically melted. Guy said they didn't grease it from the factory or something.

Was just looking at one of these at Lowe's earlier. On sale for $499 ($350 off). Are you saying if I buy this in the next few days, I'll never be able to have it serviced?

This.
I'll never buy another Samsung appliance.
I have a Samsung refrigerator that hasn't made cubed ice since day one. It also doesn't seal worth a shite.
And I now have a Samsung TV (I realize not an appliance) that has lines on the left, center and right of the screen.
