GE MONOGRAM Condensation = MOLD

 
GE Monogram Refrigerator
General Electric
US

The built in GE Monogram fridge had a sweating problem which soaked into the drywall and made black mold grow. The damage is at 15,000K so far. GE wants to charge us another 3300.00 to replace the fridge that we paid 6500.00 for 10 years ago. Life expectancy for these appliances is 20 years. It didnt even meet its half life. You would think that a recall would have took place. how many other fridges have the same problem that owners dont know is going on because these fridges are not meant to be removed. Warn everyone- dont by GE!!!

I pulled my my 42" monogram to clean the coils,the hardwoods under the unit were rotten to the point I could hardly remove it.All of the hardwood flooring, sub flooring, floor joist and drywall were badly damaged and do not know how bad it is under my cabinets. This unit was installed in August-2003.Owners with this refrigerator, BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am back for an update. The damage caused by GE's defective refrigerator cost $31,000.00 by the time my kitchen was made whole after the faulty frige filled the corner of my kitchen with black mold. Ge sent an adjuster here and they accept liability for the damage but want to cover only $9,800.00. After submitting the contractors bills I am waiting to hear what GE's 2nd offer will be. They also charged me $3,200.00 for a comparable replacement model.Needless to say I am very disappointed in the GE name. They do not stand behind their products. GE is aware of the problem with this model number but failed to warn myself and other consumers who have the same model destroying their homes. I believe CPSC has a law against the failure to warn. Why cant I get anyone to take me seriously?? GE should warn consumers when they become aware they have sold a badly manufactured product.How can they get away with this?? Apparently GE is more interested in profits then doing the right thing. See my YOUTUBE video under "GE BLACK MOLD". Please help me spread the word. Thank you.
