Are There Any Known Recalls On The Mfx2571xem In Regards To Them Leaking Water?

Our two year old MFX2571XEM leaks water at both front corners and the bottom of the fridge under the freezer turns into one big solid block of ice. It does not leak water daily but little bits off and on until it becomes one large solid chunck of ice underneath. This has been an ongoing problem with this fridge so I wondered if there may be a recall, if it a common problem or just one with my particular fridge? Also looking for possible cause and solutions. Thanks

Hi, there does not appear to have been a recall issued for your model. (You can find all Maytag recalls here.) Could there possibly be some bad seals on the bottom? Or a leaky pipe behind the unit?
