Freon Leak

refrig is 10 yrs old.  when it was 8 yrs old had to replace compressor as they found a restriction in the high side line.  filled unit up with nitro to find problem in line..  less than 2 yrs later, had to put in freon as refrig & freezer stoped cooling.  3-4 months later, the refrig/freezer stopped cooling again.  for a top of the line product, this shouldn't be happening.
