I do believe they could power coat these spider to stop some of this from happening. But my husband has always stated that the cloths smell like I didn’t wash them or smell March 7, 2017Īs a service Tech, We have seen and have replaced many spiders on Samsung washer and from the washers we have worked on the spider get caked up with soap eating away at cast metal. I started using laundry pucks and DO NOT use any liquid fabric softener. I really do not use the detergent dispenser as this gives my clothes a bad smell. But it is the same model number WF330ANWXAA 02.įunny, if the struts are prone to failure for any reason, when you have a machine serviced, it seems to me the service tech would check those for wear. With this unit, you have to take the entire housing off to get to the ones in the back, as mine does not have that little panel like in the repair videos. Husband (I love him) will work on it this weekend since we do not have a warranty on this, it has long expired. So I purchased all 4 to replace them, as I have read, if 1 is bad the others will go bad eventually. I’ve had it serviced by sears just last year, they checked it out and vouched it was ok.īut they don’t run it under normal circumstances with clothes inside.Īnyway, after the banging noise started I had a repair person come out and determine the problem. Mine started making that banging sound a couple months ago, but has always had a vibration problem.
That seems to be the bad year for Samsung. We purchased our matching Samsung front load washer set from Sears in 2010 also. This is more is more commonly known as “Design Failure” of a part that they purposely did Designed to fail at the Samsung Design & Engineering Facility! The Manufacturing and Engineering Team/Platform always know when a Part is going to fail from there rigorous testing that must be done prior to Release for Production. This was done by the Design and Engineering Team to completely limit the Functional/Working Life-Span of the Washer Drum and Bearing Assembly itself! This is getting me more and more infuriated the more that I think about it and continue to look into this problem. I want to get to the bottom of this since this is a HUGE, “Design/Engineering/Manufacturing Material Flaw. This is outrageous to have occurred in a washer with such little hours on it. The Huge Problem is that the Washer Drum itself will turn Counterclockwise but when it reverses it actually gets jammed up by these Large(2″x 1″)chunks of broken shrapnel from something totally disintegrating between the Outer Plastic Drum(Housing)and the Drum itself. Looks as if we hardly use it but this strange Gritty/Metallic Debris similar to Heavy Beach Sand isn’t clogging the Front Drain pump Clean out it is just constant breakdown of this certain type of alloy they speak of. Same issue occurring in our Samsung Frt Load Washer. residents who own, or have owned, Samsung washing machine models WF331ANW, WF1124XAU, WF328AAW, WF209ANWXAA, WF218ANWXAC and/or any other Samsung washer model containing these defects. The defective Samsung washing machine class action lawsuit is brought on behalf of all U.S. The lawsuit claims Samsung is aware of these defects, but continues to sell the washers and refuses to properly address and rectify the problem or to reimburse customers for damaged clothes, surrounding areas or for repairs, citing expired warranty periods. The Defects render the Washer unusable because they (1) fail to properly clean the clothes, (2) leak water in and around the Washer causing damage to the surrounding area, and (3) require continuous costly and inconvenient repairs,” the Samsung washer class action lawsuit states.
