samsung massive recall on most american style f/f?

Not sure if this has been posted yet but Samsung have announced home visits and repairs for several of their fridge freezers, including the troubled RS21.


Quote:
SAMSUNG Electronics UK today announced a programme to visit the homes of customers to resolve an issue identified in certain now-discontinued RS21 and RS60 range fridge freezers, manufactured between March 2005 and June 2006.

SAMSUNG Electronics has decided to take this action after concluding that in a minority of cases the models’ defrost system may require repair to put right a defect in its assembly. In very rare cases, there is the potential for internal sparking to occur and in consequence, damage to the appliance.

In order to administer a solution as efficiently as possible, SAMSUNG Electronics will provide a free in-home inspection and repair programme of all affected fridge freezers. As a precautionary measure, SAMSUNG will also include unaffected fridge freezers with a similar defrost system as a part of the programme for consumers’ safety and convenience.

Models affected include RS21, RS60, SN62, RSE8, RSH1 and RSJ1. Put in your product number and serial number to find out if your fridge freezer needs a safety check at the samsung website. I can't link the page - new user
