Samsung Microwave oven, less than a year old.  The grease filter by the vent fan falls off suddenly even while the fan is not on.  Any solution or is it a defective part?

We can definitely see how concerning this may be! I would first ask if you've recently purchased a new filter and if this is a new filter installation? If so it could be the filter itself, and you may need to reach out to where you purchased it to have the filter replaced.

Also, you will always want to make sure that you're purchasing any filter for your unit from an authorized Samsung parts distributor such as http://www.samsungparts.com

Next would be to make sure you're replacing and maintain the maintenance properly. This link can assist with maintenance as well as installing a new filter:  https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00049239/ 

 

If you have purchased an authorized Samsung filter and tried the steps in the article and the filter continues to come out of place, more than likely service will be required on your unit. You can reach out to a local service center in your area by utilizing the following link, http://www.samsung.com/us/support/service/location  or reach out to one of our moderators via this   PM Link. to discuss this matter further.

I purchased a replacement grease filter latch, item # DE94-02912A. I took 5 screws off from the bottome of the microwave which gave me enough room to reach in and remove the old latch. Then I removed the two screws on the bottom of the microwave holding the latch piece on. Remove the old piece and replace with the new piece.  WaLa...
