Cabrio Washer
I am very dissapointed! My 2 year old Cabrio washer is leaking
underneath. My husband checked all hookups and drain...no problems there. It is definitely coming from bottom of washer.
I have only done normal washing as a household, no heavy duty or unusual laundry. It is just my husband and myself that I do laundry for.
The company Pheister & Sons of Rock Island, Il. 61201 are no longer in business. Can Whirlpool assist us or are we out of luck?

Sorry to say, you're probably out of luck. Unless the washer is still under warranty (unlikely), you're on your own. If you don't have the paperwork, you can find out from Whirlpool, at 866-698-2538.
