Maytag Maytag mvw7230hw

We purchased our washer from Lowes in December of 2021 and had it delivered in late December ( not even 2 full years) and have had to replace the

pump due to an F9E1 code in which the repair company recommended. we now cannot get the washer to go beyond the wash cycle. It stops and after a while an error code comes up again F9E1 still. The repair company then came to the realization that the circuit board has gone bad. Again , the washer is not even 2 years old and has been broken since mid October. The part alone costs over $300 plus the repair man cost plus the cost of the new pump we had gotten put on plus the $120 fee from the repair man.

Claimed loss: $ 275.00 for pump and repair man

Desired outcome: I would like the problem addressed by Maytag by replacing the washer or paying for the repairs

Maytag Maytag washer top loader MVWB765FW

Bought this washer at Lowes in 2019 and now replacing Lid for second time and electronics malfunction once! I cant believe how poorly designed and the plastic at the corner breaking off on the lid and we are empty nesters and no kids so light duty and all these problems in just 4 years whereas our previous Maytag we had for over 20 years and had only 1 issue ever and that's with kids and their sports uniforms having to be washed constantly therefore more than normal use. I guess Maytag decided they could make junk and g]force people to replace every few years. if they aren't careful a class action lawsuit might be appropriate and get their attention since their customer service is now lacking. The CS agent is sending me a new lid but labor will be $150-200 Basically this lid is a terrible cheap design.

Desired outcome: free replacement and labor to install new lid

Maytag Maytag Refrigerator Model MSS26C6MFZ00 wires under freezer door broken

We bought all new kitchen Maytag appliances in June 2019. The refrigerator icemaker started working intermittently in September 2022. We tried everything (unplug, reset on/off switch), including replacing icemaker part W10873791. Nothing fixed it. The issue was broken wires under freezer side. The tech (at a cost of over $400) spliced the wires and reconnected. A year later, October 2023, the ice maker started working intermittently again. Called Maytag each time about icemaker not working and was told "There are no service bulletins or complaints about this" and they will do nothing. Before ordering another icemaker part we took off the bottom faceplate and found the wires are broken AGAIN. This is obviously a design flaw.

Claimed loss: We have spent over $400 in repair costs and still have a non-working icemaker on a refrigerator that is now 4 years old.

Desired outcome: Replacement of door & wire harness as apparently that is the only fix.

I bought a Maytag Washing machine from Lowe's in Brunswick, Maine in November of 2022. As of August 2023, my washer stopped working, was making sounds and lights were flashing but washer wouldn't switch cycles after filling. I contacted your service department and they set a date for September 21, 2023 for the Appliance Guys to visit my residence and...

Maytag Maytag mgd510 dw0 dryer and maytag mhw5100dw0 washer

I have had to replace the hinge assembly on this dryer three times already since purchased. I have also had this same hinge replacement problem with the washing machine. All of the hinges were replaced last on both machines in May 2021.

Now the dryer door is dragging due to a defective hinge. This has scratched the plastic panel due to a defective hinge. This should not be happening.

I previously had a Whirlpool washer-dryer pair with this same problem but not as often as the Maytag.

The washer dryer is stacked and this should not be a problem if the hinges were desirned for at least ten years of service.

We do not have small children who could have contributed to this problem There are four adults in the household and take reasonable care of maintaining the appliances.

I would like to see a more robust design with pins and hinge parts made of steel. I would like a new front panel to replace this scratched on due to a defective design.

Desired outcome: I would like to see a more robust design with pins and hinge parts made of steel. I would like to receive a new hinge assembly free of charge. I would like a new front panel to replace this scratched on due to a defective design.

Maytag Maytag "washing machine"

" Be as specific as possible "

The Maytag "washing machine" I bought is a piece of [censored]!

I'm putting out a video on YouTube to explain to others how to operate a Maytag "washing machine".

Step1> get a 5 gallon bucket ( the Maytag "washing machine" is not programmed to allow water into tub.

Step 2> go to nearest bathroom tub and fill 5 gallon bucket of water to preferred temp.

Step 3> Fill Maytag "washing machine" with water from bucket(s).

Step 4> add detergent and clothes into tub.

Step 5> Don't close lead. Use your good arm and reach into tub and move clothes around rapidly.

Or

Use your Maytag "washer machine as a toilet for about two weeks,then send it back?

Desired outcome: New machine!!! You have ruined all of my jeans.#25

Maytag Dishwasher

Dishwasher will not finish cycle. It just shut off. I’ve had them out here to repair it many times and they can’t find what’s wrong. It started while still under warranty. I thought the warranty was 10 years but ever Denteley was only one but within that. It still didn’t work right they were called no after three years. I am gonna just have to buy a new dishwasher but it will not be a Maytag.

Desired outcome: New dishwasher or repair this one

Maytag Washer

Since purchasing my washer in 2022, I've had the worse experience ever. This upcoming summer I called for a repair. I was told it had to do with the smart machinery of the washer which is why it would not go pass the sensing mode. It took 1.5 months to fix and in October I called again because the same issue occurred. I was told it was the smart machinery aspect again and in addition to this one piece, an additional piece (agitator) needs to be order due to a broken screw that was caused by the first technician. My time has been wasted and everyone I speak to Maytag is of no help. I will never recommend this product to anyone.

Desired outcome: I just want the washer replaced; no product should be this flawed within a year of purchase.

Maytag Maytag top loading washer Model nu MVW7232HW0

Dear sir/madam, On September 6, I called the Maytag repair line to see if my washer could be looked at since it was not working. They scheduled a repair person to come. I gave them the error codes. I was told that they don't make those parts although the machine is less than a year old. Parts were finally located and it was needing more parts. Now they have ordered an additional 3 parts to fix my washer and I have been jerked around by Maytag being told it would be replaced two times only to be transferred both times to different Maytag reps and told they won't replace but can't find parts etc.. If you look up my phone number I am sure there is a record of how many times I have called with issues. I purchased my washer based on Maytags reputation only to be let down and dissappointed. I have been without a washer for nearly two months.. I will never buy your product again. I can't get anyone to give me a straight answer. Its a lemon and it needs to be replaced. Mary Brogdon [protected]

Desired outcome: Replacement of faulty machine and a response from Maytag.

Bought MVW7232HW washer with matching dryer 1/27/2022 it is 11/2/2023. Called Maytag and despite the nice customer service person she completely missed diagnosed over the phone and said it was out of warranty. I got better help from Google and she didn't even try to help me just pawn me off on someone else. Google at least walked me through a factory reset. Just know I had to call one time before and the customer service person walked me through all the steps for a diagnoses and was help beyond expectations and I sent positive feedback letting Maytag know that so I don't mind reporting good. Morel is you need better customer service because it's not even 2yrs old.

Maytag Maytag Bravos XL Washer MVWB835DW3

I bought the machine in October 2018 and had to replace the lid on the washer in February 2022 due to cracks on the left side hinge. It is now October 2023 and the left side hinge area is cracked causing issues with the lid locking properly and needing replacement again! Upon researching this, I see there have been numerous complaints from others with the same exact problem and it seems it's a design defect. These lids are expensive costing over $400 to replace and it's not right that the customer is incurring these additional costs on fairly new machines that are expensive to begin with. I've also had to replace the washer drain pump this year. Really poor quality products and I will certainly never buy this brand again.

Desired outcome: I would appreciate a replacement lid so I don't incur this cost again, and a solution to prevent this from happening anymore.

Maytag Washing machine MVW7232HW

I have a Maytag washing machine about two years old. Saturday it started washing an average size load of towels and then lost power. I confirmed power is present at the outlet. I YouTubed it and it appear the master control board is bad. I then called Maytag who will send an authorized repair man from a company in Alabama (I live in Florida) but the first date he comes to my area is 5 days from now. That visit will likely cost me $130, and the guy will not have the part which will need to be ordered. I have been quoted 300-500$ for the replacement part in addition to the labor charges and the inconvenience of my machine being unusable for at least two weeks. I expect better from Maytag on a device that cost over $1,000 and is only two years old... and to add, this is a part time home for me so it is only used about 50% of the time.

Desired outcome: Fix or replace my machine with no change to me.

Maytag Maytag MVW7232HW

Purchased my top load washer mid July, after 2 months, I hear knocking a noise. Placed a call on September 13th only to get a repair date of Sept. 27th. On September 26th I received a notice that the technician would arrive between 10:00am and 3:00pm. The next morning at 9:30 I received a call notifying me that there was an emergency with the technician and that they would have to move my appointment to October 11th. I’ve been on the phone everyday to no avail.

Desired outcome: Would like my washer fixed yesterday. It’s ridiculous that one has to wait a month to send a technician to fix a two month washer.

Maytag MayTag Refrigerator Model#MFI2269VEB6 Ice Maker Issues

Purchased the above Maytag refrigerator Model #FMI2269VEB6 on 8/17/2012 with a serial #K22607081. Also purchased an extended warranty. The ice maker has been replaced 3 additional times from the original unit and the most recent invoice is attached for $487.60. This a 2 adult household. Additional service records are available upon request. I'm attaching the service that has been recently provided. Door seals were previously replaced and they are already failing. I've always thought the Maytag brand appliances were very good quality and provided years of dependability but I've definitely learned otherwise at least for this unit. Marla Wholf & Michael Zeman

Maytag Washer

We purchased a MayTag washer from Lorenz Appliance in Illinois. Model number MVW7230HW1. It was delivered on June 17th of 2023. The washer is horrible it does not clean and is also ripping up anything you put in there. This is the worst washer we have ever had. We have had service out and they told us there is nothing wrong. The technicians at Whirlpool/Maytag told us the washer is working as expected--So I guess a washer ruining clothes and not cleaning is acceptable. We have been on the phone and Maytag is not honoring there warranty as they say there is nothing wrong and we will be charged if someone comes out. I cannot believe this is such a bad product. Service folks told my wife she doesnt know how to wash, that the clothes we old, load to big, load to small. They have made up very excuse for a bad product. Even the guys that can to service it said that Whirlpool will not do anything. I have gotten nowhere with Maytag or Lorenz appliance. Please help I am attaching pictures

Desired outcome: We would like to get our money back and return this product. This is not a desirable product

Maytag 4.8 cu ft high efficiency impeller top-load washer

[protected]@lowes.com

Fri, Sep 22 at 12:03 PM

I purchased a Maytag washer from Lowes. It was delivered by what they call a 'third party', although the delivery men drove a Lowes truck. The washer did not arrive in a carton, nor did it have the top Energy Guide or the registration taped to the lid. They handed me the registration form. The washer hoses were hooked up and the men left. They did not test the washer. The washer never worked right. The basket slammed around inside. Lowes sent out two other 'third party' people who allegedly leveled the washer and left. The did not use a level to measure if it was level. The basket still slammed around. Lowe's sent out another two 'third party' men. One took the time to allegedly level the washer although he did not have a level. He took the time to run it and said it wasn't a leveling problem, it was a loose basket problem. He pointed to the lid and said "That's why Maytag puts that notice on the lid about the 10 year warranty on the basket." He said he would "put in a work order". Nothing was done. I went to Lowe's and a manager said Lowe's doesn't do work orders! They said they would replace that washer. A replacement washer was brought in a carton, it had the Energy Guide and registration paper attached to the lid. The 'third party' people attached the hoses from the first washer then handed me the pack of new hoses telling me to get my money back. The 'third party' people should have taken the hoses from the first washer when they hauled it away and used the new hoses that came with the replacement washer. But what do I know? The one they hauled away has no hoses with it. The 'third party' person allegedly leveled the washer and left. I did a small load set to give it a test drive and still the * machine shook. The outflow pipe vibrates so much it is going to pop out and flood the room. I went back to Lowe's this is what I was told by Customer Service: "Call Whirlpool. They'll get someone out to fix it, no charge." I have a call into Whirlpool today and awaiting a call back. I spoke to a person in Lowe's appliance department and they said: "Impeller machines do that". No they don't, my last machine had an impeller and worked fine for 12 years! Then the rude person said "Buy another brand.". Right about now I'm ready to tell Lowe's to go you know where. I've owned three homes, have bought appliances, fencing, flooring, light fixtures, you name it from Lowe's. Now I'm I will never trust Lowe's again for any purchases

Desired outcome: FIX THIS NEW MACHINE SO IT WORKS AS IT SHOULD!
