Our 2 Yr Old Kenmore Top Freezer is Dead!!

Our 2 year old Kenmore top freezer refrigerator is dead -- stopped working just like that!We bought an entire kitchen full of appliances in November of 2007 (frig, stove, micro, dishwasher) from our local Sears Appliance Store. All were Kenmore except the Bosch dishwasher.

In March the freezer portion of the frig gradually began to warm up and a repair man came and recharged the freon. He said most likely there was a slow leak in the evaporator. He charged it and said hopefully it would last another 2 years before needing another charge.

It lasted just over two weeks and so the only option is to haul it in and have them take it apart to try and find where it's leaking.

No guarantee that it can or will be fixed and all will be at our expense. Estimated cost is minimum $300-$500. The best part of all is that Sears says it's our tough luck.
