Washers and Dryers

Bought a Samsung washer and dryer, had it installed on July 8 2020.  I did 3 loads of laundry over a period of 3 days. On the fourth  did a load of laundry and  went to open the dryer door,  the the inner glass just shattered. mind you I had no clothes in the dryer, just opened the door and glass went all over the place..

I am have problem with getting Costco.com to in contact with what their going to do about the situation.

Is this a common problem with  the glass shattering and innerglassinnerglassshould just return the Dryer and buy some other brand.  thanks

Was laying in bed and kept hearing something making a ticking noise.. got to the dryer and found out that's where the sound was coming from and found the door cracked really bad .. I was scared it was going to shatter so I cut the dryer off.. now I'm scared to cut it back on

Oh no! Was there anything in the dryer that could have caused that to happened?

It's not just mine?  The outer door on our relatively new Samsung Dryer cracked on it's own.

Model  DVE45R6300W/A3 

Broken plastic radiating from the center of the outer panel.

 

To the person that commented that Samsung stated this was just a "cosmetic" issue...  That isn't the case.  My wife is mortified that our young children could potentially cut themselves on this if it continues to crack.

 

I hadn't received a response in the other thread about this, so hopefully this will get a response and correction from Samsung.   

 

This is a manufacturing and design defect, and Samsung needs to make it right!

I put a load to dry and went upstairs to check on my kids and when I came back to check I notice a huge crack on the outer plastic door of the dryer. What in the world just happened I don't know but am very disappointed because I really like my set of dryer and washer, what can I do now? I am afraid to keep on using.

I have just noticed that my outer plastic door is cracked on my 3 year old tumble dryer, this has happened overnight as was fine yesterday. It is in the utility room so no way of it getting knocked. This seems to be an ongoing problem.

Similar story. Our dryer is 6 years old but outer door has been cracked for years. My teenage son closed it with his knee today and shattered it - totally his fault. Trying to find the replacement sort but having a hard time locating it. Any hints?
