We got a call about an LG refrigerator in Canton that was leaking with loose seals. The homeowner had purchased this LFXS26596S/01 used five months ago and noticed the freezer door seemed to be closing a little bit wacky.
The Problem
The customer reported their LG refrigerator was leaking and had loose seals. They mentioned the freezer door seemed to be closing a little bit wacky since they bought the unit used five months earlier.
Diagnosis
After a thorough inspection of the refrigerator, we could not find any real issue. The door gaskets were all good, despite the customer’s initial concerns about loose seals and the freezer door alignment.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: None
- Work performed: Complete inspection of door gaskets and sealing system
- Result: All seals found to be in good working condition
Is It Worth Repairing?
This LG refrigerator model is from their premium line and built to last. When purchased used, minor adjustments or perceived issues often resolve themselves as the unit settles into its new environment. Since no actual problems were found, this refrigerator should provide years of reliable service.
Maintenance Tips for LG Refrigerators
- Clean door gaskets monthly with warm soapy water to maintain proper sealing
- Check that the refrigerator is level — LG units are sensitive to proper leveling for optimal door operation
- Keep the condenser coils clean every 6 months to prevent cooling issues in LG models
