    My parents have a LG fridge and so far it’s still running strong

    Is it the newer recent fridges with defects or models from a specific country ?

      Mine is about 7 years old. 2 years ago the compressor died on it. It was a new custom LG design. The part normally lasts 10 years.

      I was out of warranty but LG still fixed it apparently due to a class action lawsuit forcing them to cover the compressor specifically due to all the failures.

      Take what you will from that.
