Maytag maytag bravos xl washer

I just spoke to the Maytag customer service department and was told to take my complaint to social media - great customer service! I purchased my Maytag Bravos XL washer and dryer two years ago. For the past year it has had a musty/mildew smell that goes away after I do laundry. I came home from work today and the mildew smell was coming through the air conditioner/heating system and circulating through my entire home. I called for help with this issue and was told there was nothing they could do for me and that I should complain on Facebook or another online venue! I will NEVER purchase another Maytag appliance again and I will tell my story over and over again. This is the worst customer service I have ever experienced!

We purchased a Maytag Maxima front end load washer in 2012. Approximately 9 weeks ago the machine stopped working. We called a repairman and he told that it was likely a control panel and that it would take about 3 weeks. After 7 weeks the part finally arrived and the machine still did not work. We were told that it was also needs a second part. The estimated cost for both parts and labour is approximately $800.
Maytag Canada's customer service is conducted by Whirpool. The customer service is contemptible. They cannot offer any type of status updates. They keep reminding you that you should have purchased an extended warranty. They show no concern about our situation. We have written a letter of complaint and have not received a response. It is summer and nearly all clothing is one wear. For a family of 4, we have spent nearly $120 at the laundromat.
We are disappointed and angry with the poor customer service. We will buying a new washing machine instead of repairing this machine. It will not be a Maytag or Whirpool.
Incidentally, the retailer that sold us the machine has been helpful in trying to resolve the problem and they encountered the same indifference with Maytag's customer service. They have offered a deal on a new machine.

Hate new maytag bravo washing machine ... What's up with washing with a sprinkle of water for wash cycle... Clothes are not getting clean ... Bring back the old style wash machines that at least fill with water at the level you want ... I can't believe the govt got involved to tell us how to wash our clothes with 1/2 the amount of water... Crazy
There's no energy efficiency here when you have to rewash clothes 2-3 times to get them clean!, , !,
Really want my money back ... Can anyone help ... Have used 6 times and hate it, , , , , !, , , , ,

Maytag top load washer mvwc6esww1

I am having the same problems with my Maytag Centennial Top Load Washer as others on this complaint board. When I pull the knob to start the washer, it immediately starts to agitate before any water is in the machine. The only way I can get the water to fill before it agitates is to put it on the Hand Wash cycle. After it fills, I turn the knob to the appropriate cycle. I have to use the 2nd rinse cycle to get the clothes dry enough to put in the dryer. They come out soaking wet if I only use the normal rinse/spin cycle because water squirts on the clothes right before it stops spinning. Seems to me that Maytag has a lemon in their temperature switch and they need to own up to it and recall/replace the part for free.

Maytag control panel is running amok, ice maker door slams shut every 10 seconds

The control panel has just gone haywire and the door that covers the ice dispenser slowly opens then slams shut. The only way to make it stop is to unplug the refrigerator, which obviously is not idea.

This started last week, May 6, 2016. At first it was sporadic, but now it's continual.

We found numerous complaints about this on line and several stories of people who said Maytag acknowledged the problem and fixed it for free. During our conversation the Maytag rep claimed to know nothing about the frequency of this problem or any company-provided fixes. We would like the part replaced for free since Maytag knows this is a problem and should have issued a recall repair.

Maytag french door refrigerator

I purchased my refrigerator 5 years ago, I went with Maytag because it has a good reputation. I have been very disappointed in the product. To date I have continued to have the same problem over and over. The refrigerator quits cooling, a technician has been out 4 times this will be the 5th. We have lost about $300.00 worth of food due to this problem and have been having to use ice chests which is a huge inconvenience. I have a technician coming out today only to be told that all parts will be covered but I have to pay for the labor and the service call. I do not feel I should have to be responsible for this fee due to the nature of the problem. I would like to have my refrigerator replaced.
Thank you,
Kandi Esparza

Maytag french door refrigerator

Wow where do I begin, bought this refrigerator 6 years ago along with other may tag appliances for my kitchen remodel. I regret everything about purchasing anything from this company! They are the exactly what is wrong with how large company's handle there customers once a problem with one of there products are discovered. They have instructed there customer service department to stonewall you at every effort to get this problem resolved in a professional manner and blatantly lie about any existing problem with this particular model. So we are out 2500.00 dollars and stuck with a piece of junk taking up space in our kitchen. I remember a time when company's would stand behind their products and do everything within reason to get the problem addressed to keep you as a loyal customer. Has anyone started a class action suit against them based on the faulty control boards etc. that they claim are operating just fine and are not aware of any issues with the parts being used in there refrigerators

I echo the same sentiment's. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY & TIME... I have a 4 month old French Door with double pull out drawers below that cost me close to $3000 that stopped cooling and making very little ice. Currently the Freezer portion appears to be working- fingers crossed! I called on Aug.11 to report the problem and couldn't get an appointment until Aug. 19th between 8am and 4pm which I found absurd!. After contacting Maytag again to report that I had not received confirmation on my appointment from the service provider that they made the appointment with nor had I been able to reach them, I was told by a Maytag CSR to give them until the night before to confirm a time. Well, here we are the morning of the 19th and after NOT receiving a conformation on a time, I called back to Service provider "Breenden Appliance" and got the answering machine once again and could not leave a message, once again! I then called Maytag at 8:50 am to report this problem... Their lack of concern for me as the end user of their product was a complete slap in the face of which I shared with both the CSR and Supervisor! I told them they were not treating my issue with fairness as I was told the provider had a "death in the family" and I would be put on another providers list for next Friday August 26th which I argued was unacceptable! I was told in essence to #1. Take a $100 gift card and go away... #2. Wait for another week and see if you get service...#3. Find a way to get it serviced yourself and we may or may not approve it up to $150... This refrigerator as I believe all their appliances comes with a 10 year limited parts warranty which was one attracting component to purchasing this piece of junk! I tried getting to the corporate office and was road blocked. As shared in another comment, they will do all in their power to limit your avenues for resolution... I have not even been able to locate a regional service number to complain and solicit help to getting service sooner! It's a complete and frustrating joke dealing with their incompetence and lack of motivation to help address an issue on a product they represent! I asked the "Supervisor" if the service contractors work for Maytag or does Maytag work for them? She was like, I don't get what you mean by that statement, and I told her, you keep telling me that you only have 2 providers and "they" can't get to you until a week from now and it seems you have no authority to have me moved to priority status for a missed appointment scheduled by Maytag...Crickets... I hung up!

I too would like to know if there's been a class action suit against them. When I bought my Ice20 French Door Bottom Freezer, I had to replace both circuit boards twice! There is a high voltage and low voltage circuit board on this lemon of a refrigerator. Three times I've had to go without a refrigerator for over two weeks at a time, not to mention the loss of food each time which they don't reimburse for.
New problem today...the piece of junk looks and sounds like it's working but everything in the freezer has defrosted, and the frig is just cool. And like I said all the control panel indicators say the hunk of junk is running perfectly. Need to unload for the 4th time tomorrow, thinking about just getting another frig. Not something I'm particularly happy about doing after spending $2500 on something I thought would last a long time.
If anyone wants to start a class action suit please don't forget to contact me. I'm in! Maytag No More!

Maytag bravos washer and dryer

My wife and I were setting up a new home in Florida and needed a new washer/dryer set. I've had great success with Samsung but bought into the new Maytag ads about great product and service, as well as the desire to "Buy American." We spent over $1, 500 for a Bravos W/D set and have regretted it ever since.

The first problem began with the very first load we washed. The washer was making what I can only describe as a machine-gun noise throughout the wash cycle, so mush so that I could hear it downstairs through two closed doors. It was jumping around on the floor, so clearly something was wrong.

Thinking that maybe we overloaded the unit, we pulled out some clothes and tried again, but the noise continued. So I called Maytag Customer Support the next morning. I was told that the noise I was hearing was perfectly normal, even after I played a recording of it to the service rep.

She then pointed me to a website that has videos of "normal" sounds that their machines make. Apparently, so many people complain about the noise that they have devoted an entire website to explaining why this was normal.

I insisted that this was not anywhere close to the noise I was hearing, but she would not schedule a service appointment for me unless I agreed to pay for the call if it turned out to be a normal operation. No dice.

I ended up, after about a week, getting the unit replaced by going through Home Depot. And the noise ceased. Amazing.

Fast-forward a couple of months, and now the washer cycles through without washing - there's a problem with a sensor board that I've seen referenced on other sites. But can I get an authorized Maytag service rep out here to fix it? They are all booked.

I scheduled an appointment a week out, double-checked the day before - all is on schedule. Then the morning of the appointment, I get a call saying that 3 of their service techs are "sick" (it's the first sunny day in a couple weeks). Maybe in a week?

I call back and escalate - maybe there's another service company? Nope, everyone is booked for the next week. And now the first company's story changes - they're not "sick", they're injured. They were injured yesterday but apparently they thought they would improve overnight?

Bottom line, Maytag products are so bad that they have to post videos on their website to try to convince you that the noises your machine makes are "normal". They will charge YOU (even during warranty) to prove otherwise. And God help you if you need a service call - apparently there is only ONE Maytag Repairman and he's busy making commercials.

Maytag washing machine neptune mah8700aww

We have the Neptune MAH8700AWW We have had the motor replaced and the mother board rebuilt. We are still getting the same 3E code. I don't think I will ever trust Maytag again. I thought it would be nice to finally be able to afford a quality machine. I was wrong. We have spent over $700 in repairs for it to continue with the same codes. I am VERY disappointed.

Maytag bravos xl mct washing machine

The machine does not use enough water to adequately wash the clothes. I had to run a pair of jeans 3 times and the mud from the golf course was still there. We have had to resort to adding additional water to each load to get anything close to clean. This is in addition to running the extra heavy deep water cycle. Is there a fix for this? I don't care about saving a little water, I would prefer to run the load one time and have the clothes clean.

Maytag msd2559xeb04

I purchased a MSD2559XEB04 side by side refrigerator in July 2011 new for $825 from a local big name home supply store. Recently, the front fascia (p/n [protected]), which is part of the User Interface, peeled off on its own. The front fascia consists of two pieces, a thicker plastic backing plate that snaps into the UI and a laminated "sticker" that is stuck to the backing plate. The "sticker" portion is the piece that fell off on its own. Since the unit is out of warranty, I decided to replace the item at my cost, however soon learned that the part was discontinued and no longer available. I contacted Maytag directly and was told that the part was discontinued and no longer available. As an alternative, I was offered a new equivalent refrigerator at a discount as a replacement. The replacement unit was offered at $832 + $70 shipping + $46 water connection fee + tax. I insisted that they provide a better resolution, especially considering that the refrigerator was only 4 years old and that they failed to stock replacement parts. I was told there was nothing better they could offer. Be warned, when purchasing a Maytag unit, that parts may not be available for parts that fail nor will they provide a reasonable alternative. I will certainly never purchase another Maytag product again given their potential to not stock replacement parts nor provide reasonable alternatives to alleviate a clear manufacturing quality issue. Regardless of whether the unit is in warranty, a reasonable expectation would be that parts would be available for a number of years after a new purchase. This is clearly not the case with Maytag. In summary, Maytag does not stand behind its products nor is it willing to provide reasonable resolutions for product related quality control issues.

Maytag centennial washer model 464mvwc400xw

My wife purchased this machine 2/10/2012. When using a powder form of soap, it doesn't rinse all the soap out. Last week 12/11/2015, I went to remove clean clothes after the cycle was complete (or so I thought). The clothes were still soaking wet. I set it to Drain and Spin, then restarted. After at least two rinse cycles, it still continued to run. Couldn't get it to drain and spin. Then it drained the tub and began agitating (both me and the clothes!). Finally had to unplug, wring out the clothes by hand and hang to dry.

Maytag washer

Purchased a new expensive Maytag washer in Jan. 2012. Now the washer is broke and essentially a boat anchor. I called Maytag and was told it is out of warranty, however I was offered a program called "repair plus" which would cover parts and labor at a discounted price. I called back to schedule and was than told the "repair plus" offer was withdrawn and that I did not qualify, the previous person offered it in error. Its Dec and I have 4 kids and now have to spend nearly $800 on a new washer, Maytag will do ZERO.

Maytag ge water softener

My GE water softener is under the Maytag extended warranty plan. I reported a leak in early November. They called me back five days later saying they could not find a service provider so advised that I find somebody & have them call with a quote. It was hard for me to get someone without a service charge but I did find Rayne, Santa Barbara. David Jackson came to my home on 11/25/15 at 3PM. He described the problem to Maytag Claims via phone from my home. It took about 45 mins for him to explain why I needed a new water softener, then a wait for approval. The claims person approved $1850 for the repair. Dave passed the phone to me so I could talk to the claims person who verified that the claim was approved. The claims person told me to fax the bill showing paid to their claims fax number. I lost the number so called claims today to give details & they said they will not approve the replacement? My incident # where they have many notes on this is [protected]. I'm at a loss as to what to do since they refused to help me with this bill for a new water softener that they approved on November 25, 2015.

Maytag whirlpool french door refrigerator

I purchased this Whirlpool Refrigerator, at the local Home Depot. I was going through a complete kitchen remodel and set up delivery for a time at the end of the remodel. The ice maker has never worked. I called Maytag, and they scheduled a service call. . for 3 week out. I waited, the service man came, decided it needed a new water pump. That took another week to arrive. He installed it, and it still does not work. It has NEVER worked. When I called the service department and complained, I was "scolded" for taking 2 weeks to report that the repair did not work. For one of those weeks, I had a house full of company, for the other, I was out of state on business. I've called Maytag and asked to speak to a supervisor. In doing so, I was simply told that I MUST have another service call. It is another 3 weeks until the new service call. Then who knows? I purchased a NEW, WORKING refrigerator. I do NOT want a repaired refrigerator. I have told them that repeatedly, and I just get attitude and told that I have to have another service call. I find this completely unacceptable and am going back to Home Depot to see if they can help. I always believed Maytag to be a reliable and quality company. It is no longer so. I have never been as disgusted, or dissatisfied with a company as I am with Maytag over this issue. I will NOT let this go, and plan to continue to demand the product that I purchased. As far as I'm concerned at this time, Maytag is a fraud, and a completely unreliable, dishonest company. I will discourage any and all to NEVER purchase from them. Kathy Reese Elliston, VA

Maytag maytag kitchen appliances

we purchased a side by side refrigerator, a stove and wall mount microwave, dishwasher about 6 years ago. I don't know how long appliances should last, but each one has something that has gone wrong. refrigerator/ freezer, the light switch on the door has broken now can't see inside when the door is open. the water and crushed ice button will not work, the microwave handle broke off, and cannot see the time or timer on microwave. only one side of the broiler works, also the glass on the oven door is not sealed cuz lint and fuzz and now cat hair is stuck between the glass. The dishwasher circuit board won't work and gets stuck, also several broken parts inside. Will have to purchase new one and am very disappointed in your products. We are on social security and on a strict budget and won't be able to buy more appliances.

Maytag jennair refirigerator

Unit caught fire and apparently the same unit has caught fire with other consumers according to repairman. The unit caught fire through no fault of my own. As of the 6th phone call, Jennair (Whirlpool) has not replaced the unit. Will update on the resolution and will attempt to have Division of Consumer Affairs request a recall of this dangerous unit.

Wouold not buy Whirpool/Maytag/Jennair b/c of their conduct in handling this matter...they attempted to blame me until repairman confirmed that the unit itself simply caught fire due to malfunctioning part...control panel.

Filing lawsuit against them.

Maytag centennial washing machine lasted only 4 years

I trusted the Maytag brand...big mistake. This washer has had nothing but problems. The independent repair people won't even touch it to fix it and all said to go out and by a new machine. Maytag wanted us to buy an extended warranty before they would come "fix" it. The first year under warranty they had to rebuild the whole inside mechanisms. After that it never washed well, and finally had issues with the lock lid which pretty much controls all the cycles on the machine. Rinse and Drain cycle stopped, then machine made a huge grinding noise and stopped working. No one wants to fix it ! Salvation Army doesn't even want it ! Do not buy Maytag. Customer service will not help you. Had this machine about 4 years. Should last a lot longer ! Went out to buy a Speedqueen with no bells or whistles, maybe that will do the trick !

I just hung up with Ashton at Maytag. There is nothing the company will do to help me with my 2 1/2 year old dishwasher. It wasn't the cheap one either. It still looks brand new other than the hard to clean stainless steel front, (I never did see why so many people want stainless steel exteriors on their appliances). Our SECOND control panel died 20 days after the one year warranty period. Which means the First one only lasted a year and a half. My parents had appliances last 15 to 20 years. With today's technology and experience, why can't they make a product that lasts and does a good job. It never really did well cleaning, I always felt like I had to wash the dishes before placing them in the dishwasher to be washed. Anyway, I'm done with Maytag and Whirlpool and anyone else associated with them. (Does this include Home Depot where I purchased it)? I guess if you can't sell enough product, you have to have other strategies as a company to make money. ie. parts, labor and extended warranties. Buyer BEWARE! They won't help in any way! I just noticed the advertisement for Black Friday at the top of the page. It States "Save Big on Hard-Working Washers...!" What a joke! I'm not laughing...

Maytag repair service will not touch your washer if this happens...

Did you know that if your washer or dryer does not have a readable serial number on the machine, NO repair service will work on it. It does not matter if you have all the paperwork showing this information. If the original label is unreadable, no repair service will touch it because they will be fired. Maytag changes parts on a model all the time. The serial number is the ONLY way a serviceman can tell exactly what parts your washer was made with.

Apparently the serial and model number label sticker was not printed with permanent ink. The Repair Service said the Serial and Model number ink washed off the label because the sticker was incorrectly put on the inside of the washer door at the bottom. But Maytag shows online that "is" exactly where the serial and model number sticker is located.

So, I called Maytag to order a new serial number stick on label for our washer. I gave Maytag the information and I was told I would have the label in two weeks. Then I called back a week or so later to make sure the serial number was ordered and on the way. Maytag said there was a misunderstanding, and that they received my request on 6/17/15 and it was sent to the ONE AND ONLY GUY that makes replacement serial number tags and he was sent my request on 6/22/15. Maytag said it would take the one and only man quite some time to make the label (SINCE THERE IS ONLY ONE!) and I could expect to receive the replacement label in 4 to 6 weeks and they were sorry, but there was absolutely NOTHING they could do about it. So as my year old washer sets for over a month, I'm going to the Laundromat each week.
We should have received the new serial number on August 6, 2015. So it’s taken almost 2 months and my label is close to two weeks late.
To date I have not received my serial number.

CHECK YOUR MAYTAG WASHER. IF THE SERIAL NUMBER AND MODEL NUMBER LABEL ARE INSIDE THE DOOR, CHECK TO SEE IF THE INK IS COMING OF THE MACHINE LABEL, and order a new one NOW if it is, or you will not be able to get your washer serviced. DO NOT PUT NEW LABEL BACK ON THE INSIDE OF THE WASHER DOOR.

This is just unbelievable...

Maytag washing machine that has never worked correctly

We have owned a Maytag Centenial washing machine, Model MVWC6ESWW! for 5 years and it has never worked well. The machine has never done a very good job cleaning the clothes and from time to time, the entire cycle seems to be out of sync. It starts agitating the clothes when it should be filling with water, runs through the entire cycle very quickly and then adds more water at the end when the clothes should be spun dry. We had a repairman out once and he failed to diagnose the problem and then never actually managed to purchase the part he thought it needed. However, after reading all the other complaints about Maytag machines, I consider myself lucky since at least it's never flooded my laundry room! WE are trying to decide if we should purchase a new machine or attempt to repair this one and I think we will go for a new one and try another brand. We were loyal Maytag owners for 26 years but have been really let down with this machine.

Maytag 5000 series dryer with steam

Purchased a Maytag 5000 Series dryer with steam. Nearly $800 at Home Depot. Less than four years later, the dryer needs a new heating element. $99 for the "first" service call. Have to wait one week for the part. $340 - $350 for the part. And of course, another $99 for the "second" service call. That's at least $540 to repair an $800 dryer.

Like everyone else I'm reading about, I did not purchase an extended warranty. I thought I was spending the extra money on the initial purchase to buy a higher quality product from a more reputable company. Wrong!

There are two adults who live in this house. We work 60 to 100 hours per week. We don't have time to do laundry. Half of our clothing goes to the dry-cleaners! So this isn't a household with 19 kids. I'm not talking about a dryer that never got turned off. This is ridiculous.

I foolishly spent $800 on one of Maytag's products thinking I would get ten years of good service. That's $80 per year to own the thing. I want my $480 back for the six years of service your product failed to provide.

What is the environmental impact of your corporation pumping such disposable trash out into our environment? Who is looking into that? How irresponsible is it for a corporation to manufacture such trash with the full expectation that it's going into a landfill in "less than" four years?

What was Maytag's solution to the problem? "We'll essentially give you an employee discount on a new product." Well, that would be wonderful, but you need to give me a discount on another company's product. I will "never" again have a Maytag appliance in my home. I have already began and will continue informing every person who will listen about my experience with your products. I told the Maytag person on the phone that I would never even accept a free dryer from their company.

Maytag, you should be ashamed. If you cannot manufacture a better product, if you cannot provide better customer service and stand behind the products you make, and if you cannot be more environmentally responsible, you should be out of business.

Your corporation and this product has reaffirmed a belief in me: This country is incapable of producing anything that isn't disposable garbage. I do not purchase American vehicles because they're disposable garbage. And from today forward, I will do my best to purchase as few products as possible that are manufactured by American corporations.

I have had to replace the idler pulley for the drive belt on mine three times now. I am buying Maytag OEM parts, and my work is good. The drum spins freely, without drag or wobble. Has anyone else had this issue? Is it a design flaw or was I just the lucky one?
