Problems with LG GN-B559PLCZ Refrigerator's Cooling System, No Fixes Performed

In 2017, I purchased an LG refrigerator model GN-B559PLCZ from an authorized dealer. In April 2023, I experienced cooling issues for the first time. I contacted the official service center to address the problem. The service center charged me 600 ₺ for maintenance, stating that the motor was faulty. They mentioned that the motor replacement, covered by the 10-year warranty, would be free, but an additional 1600 ₺ was required for system and pipe cleaning. Thinking the problem was resolved, I continued using the refrigerator. However, in July 2023, the same cooling issue occurred again. I contacted the same service, and despite my reluctance to pay again, they insisted on 600 ₺ for maintenance and took the refrigerator for repair. They once again stated a motor issue and the need for system cleaning. After a phone dispute, they agreed to repair it for free. The refrigerator was returned after a month. On September 26, I faced another cooling problem. I contacted the same service expressing dissatisfaction, stating my intention to exercise consumer rights. MTV staff claimed they would prepare a report for LG's head office. After a week, LG responded that the invoice amount would be refunded, leaving me with no other options. Currently, despite the existing 10-year motor warranty and my right to exchange under Consumer Rights, I want to exercise my right to exchange with an additional payment. If not possible, the invoice amount is 2599 ₺. Considering the current situation, I seek a fair refund. Otherwise, I inform you that I will pursue legal action to obtain compensation for the material and moral losses I experienced over the summer.

I would like to report the development regarding my issue. Despite conveying my grievance both in writing and verbally to the technical service named MTV Electronics and to the LG headquarters (including the CEO), no solution has been provided. They either suggested that I accept a refund of my 2017 invoice or that I could purchase the equivalent product, the "LG GC-B569BLCM. Apzpltk" refrigerator, priced at 29,000 TL, for 24,320 TL including VAT. (My invoice amount is 2,599 TL + the total fee I paid for the service is 2,800 TL). I have already had a bad experience with LG; if I were to spend this money, why would I buy another LG refrigerator? I hereby declare that I will fully exercise my consumer rights within the legal framework, both materially and morally.

I applied to the Consumer Arbitration Committee. The company was asked to provide a defense about 2 months ago, but it still hasn't submitted its defense. What kind of company are you? Shame on you.

The esteemed members of the Consumer Arbitration Committee of my beautiful Turkey decided that my refrigerator needed to be repaired for the 3rd time by the service. The authorized service prepared and sent a report to the LG headquarters stating that it would not be possible to repair this refrigerator. Finally, the LG headquarters gave in and decided to provide a brand new refrigerator from the factory. Friends, fight for your rights to the end! After so much time (almost 1 year), I finally received my new refrigerator as of today. I hope all victims get the same result...
