Ice Maker/water
In Decmber of 2009, we bought a Whirlpool Gold GI5VAXVL frnch door frig. I worked fine until January of this year. Luckily, we bought a service protection plan, since we have had 5 services calls on the unit's icemaker since then. Is it a common problem for this icemaker to stop making ice and freeze up? Have there been any recalls of on this model? Is A&E Factory Service an authorized repair service?
