RF28HFEDBSR/AA Ice Maker Issue

[user8xSxDS6iTH]

To be honest, I don't think having a normally functioning ice maker is a known issue.  The failure rate seems to be around 100% from what I've gathered (by the time you get to the 3 year mark anyway)

I just found this thread. I’ve had my fridge for 1 1/2 years and my ice maker hasn’t worked correctly for about 6 months. It freezes up and it’s almost imposssible to pull out the tray so I can chip away at all the frost build up so it can make ice again.   It’s a terrible problem. Samsung needs to acknowledge this and fix the problem ASAP. I will never buy another Samsung product since this is how they treat their customers.

Samsung will not recognize this a known issue? Wow. I already stop buying any samsung products and told everyone i know about it.

Thank you for sharing your solution.  I have been using a blow dryer to defrost the ice maker so we can use it.  Both problems are not acceptable when you buy a Samsung product.  What do you do with your food for 24 hours especially frozen items?

I think Samsung needs to do a recall and either replace our refridgerators or send parts that will correct these problems completely.  A Clauson

+1 more fridge with icemakers problems, but according to the samsung employee answering these posts - the 46 pages of people with the same problem is a "unknown issue"

Samsung, didnt your lessons learned with the exploding cellphone batteries teach you anything?  When you have thousands of customers complaining about something - A ISSUE DOES EXIST.

You guys need to fix these crummy ice makers because paying anything for 1.5 year old appliance that cost 2-4,000$ is assinine.

I tried all the fixes i could find on the internet, i tried defrosting it, resetting and creating babies with it, nothing works.  This is a problem whether or not you bury your head in the sand or not.

Last time I buy Samsung, glad i got a Sony 4K TV instead of some cheap junk made by you fools.  Next to go is my cellphone, hello Apple!

Not only have you not helped with our fridge problem, but listen to this: we had to have another call for service and, yet again, shelled out a couple of hundred dollars for a repair. And now, again, several weeks later we are back in the same situation with super loud noise that stops only when one of the doors is opened, but resumes upon closing. Pretty soon we will have spent enough on these futile repairs that we could have bought a new fridge. Can you PLEASE help us with this? We honestly cannot afford continuing repairs which don’t work, and we cannot afford a new refrigerator. Please help? Mrs. Spencer Grieco

NO SOLUTION FROM SAMSUNG SO WE SOLVED IT OURSELVES AND BOUGHT AN LG. Thanks for Insults and ignoring our pleas. Never again!

We have the same issue. Can't believe how many people have this same issue!

Also JUST got the slushy ice/leaking water problem from my icemaker.

1 month out of warranty.

There is a class action lawsuit about this, since samsung will squash any links you post about it, simply google:

 KSG Investigates Samsung Icemaker

Totally unacceptable.
