Bought a Kenmore (LG) 30cu ft fridge about 9 years ago. 3 years in the compressor died. was still under warranty so had a repair tech come out and replace the compressor (since the cost of the repair was cheaper than buying a new 30cu ft fridge/freezer) and he said the same thing, that these compressors are pretty trash tier. 6 years later, still going somehow.
note: we just recently had some symptoms of a compressor failing start to pop up: freezer began to defrost, no cold air blowing in fridge. turns out the vents on the back of the fridge were completely clogged preventing fresh air from reaching the condenser coils. Vaccumed all that out, and back to working. so this is you're random advice for the day, be sure to vacuum your fridge vents atleast every couple years.
