We purchased an LG window unit on 07/15/2020, on 07/23/2021 the LG window unit stopped cooling. A week just after the year purchase, Wow! LG had one of their own technicians (Mauricicio **) come out which he was not able to diagnose the unit. So he said he would call LG to determine what the next step was. He did say that they would possibly refund us or give us a new unit if too expensive to fix. We corresponded with him for about a month in which he continued to tell us that it was still in the process of getting repaired.

After a month and two weeks I called LG to see what the deal was because the technician was no longer responding to us. So when I called LG, I found out that the technician (Mauricio **) sent in his report the same day he first came out to look at our unit and stated to LG that our unit was fine and that it was working well, so the work order was cancelled!!! What!!! Are you kidding me, this whole month and a half he was lying to us? Terrible technician!

After being on the phone with customer service trying to plead my case to them that the technician was wrong and that my work order should not have been closed he finally said I could schedule him to come out again or wait 5-7 days for another tech to call and schedule an appointment. As much as I didn't want the same tech, I went with him anyways cause I couldn't wait another week for a new tech to come out. So they scheduled a second appointment for 09/16/2021. And what do you know, at 10:03am on 09/16/2021, I received an email stating that the technician (Mauricio **) CANCELLED my appointment!!

So immediately we called LG to see what happened, why Mauricio ** had cancelled the appointment and customer service stated that because he had already came out and diagnosed it and he wasn't going to come out again and for us to get another technician. Truth is he just didn't want to face us cause he knew he was lying and in the wrong!

So we had to schedule for a third party tech to come and give a second opinion. The new tech found the issue, a manufacturer defect and reported it in to LG to see what they would like to do. He called us back stating that LG denied it for repair, replacement and or refund, but that if we wanted to call and plead our case to give them a call, so we did and they stated that they are going to go ahead and repair the unit. So we wait and see if LG will stick to their word. If I can say anything, it is this, LG is a terrible company with one terrible technician that I have experienced first hand. They need to fire him. Don't buy LG products or proceed with caution.

I was facing cooling issue with my LG Split AC & I have called LG service customer care. Service person came after 10 days and done some cleaning work, but issue was not fixed. Then Second time I raised the complaint and they provided service person in charge person contact detail(Mr. ** - **, Mr ** - **). Even after 100 times calling no response and very badly handling. I am really frustrating with the process they handled and still my issue was not fixed. My request no - **. Still I don’t know, how to fix my issue. Better to search outside technicians. If anyone buy LG AC - please be keep in mind about the service support.

This company will not provide any technical support to non-contractors. Their installation manuals are fuzzy and non specific and they offer little to no troubleshooting information online. I bought a system and when it was installed originally 3 of the 4 cassettes did not work. Due to my remote location there are no HVAC technicians anywhere nearby. Ordered three more cassettes, installed, and two of three worked great. Still have one not working. Do not buy one of these.

We installed 4 x LG Artcool Air-conditioners of various sizes from 9000 to 24000 BTU. The compressors have a 5 year warranty. After 1.5 years the covers were showing signs of rust, and after 3 years, all the covers of the compressors were rusted beyond acceptable norms, to the extent of defacing the look of the property. Air conditioner compressors of other suppliers that have been installed in the immediate vicinity do not have this problem.

I reported this issue in detail to the installer with pictures, who forwarded it to LG. LG's representative "Carol" wrote back a one liner "Unfortunately the covers are not under Warranty". The solution offered was to replace the covers at R5500 per cover. As it seems that LG is happy with this standard of product for an outdoor unit that is not treated with an appropriate paint or cover that can last longer for 3 years, I highly suggest you look at alternative vendors such as Samsung, Nashua, Alliance and Luxaire, that do not seem to have this problem of excessive rusting over a short period of time.

LG plays games that amount to a scam. Executive Services department representatives claim to have no authority to implement solutions that they suggest. Executive Services say they will replace a faulty unit through the Rebate Department, then the Rebate Department denies the payment. The Executive Services Department claims they cannot speak directly with the Rebate Department, nor with the other Executive Services "Supervisors" who have worked on the case. The whole process is an endless loop with one department offering a solution and another department denying the solution, and with them claiming they cannot talk with one another.

This portable air conditioner never worked. Recall service was performed on it and the technician wrote "working according to specs" on the service invoice. The unit still never worked to cool air despite the fan running. All related invoices and documents were submitted to LG Executive Services representatives. Executive Services representative acknowledged that because of the recall service being performed without successful repair, the warranty period should be extended. Executive service said I should buy a replacement unit and submit a rebate claim. When I did as I was instructed, the claim was denied by the Rebate Department. Executive Services resubmitted the claim and it was denied again.

The result is that I have wasted a lot of time with LG's scammy Executive Services department, and I have to pay return shipping costs for the replacement unit that LG refused to pay for. LG's response is that, "We understand and agree with your complaint but "unfortunately" we cannot speak directly between our departments to resolve the issue." LG customer service is a scam. Do not buy their products, they do not stand behind them and will waste your time and money if allowed.

I purchased LG portable a/c, model number LP1017WSR, from Walmart on 07/02/2019. On 05/03/2020, I filed a warranty claim with LG because the unit leaked all over the carpet. Over the last 4 months, I have talked to LG customer service reps 7 times! After a month and 1/2, I finally was referred for a service call. In July, the 1st repair person was sent out and determined two parts needed replacing. The parts were ordered, but one came in damaged and had to be re-ordered. Two weeks later a DIFFERENT repair person came out to replace the ONE part that was received. However, he did not know how to replace the part. He asked to take the a/c with him so he could research how to make the repair.

We finally heard from the FIRST repair person that the unit was ready to return to us. He was supposed to deliver it on August 24, but he didn't show up and we haven't heard from him. But honestly I have NO confidence that this unit has been repaired correctly and I cannot take the chance that it will leak into the carpet again, as it is located in a rental home.

I called LG again on August 11 and explained all of this to the service rep, Amelia. I also stated that I am tired of dealing with this situation, have no confidence in this product or LG in general and I want a refund of the total amount spent on the a/c unit; $349. She assured me she would send my complaint to the Resolution Unit and I would hear something within 4-5 days. She also said she would PERSONALLY keep track of the status of my request and call me back. After hearing nothing AGAIN, I called and talked to Amelia again on August 18. She said the Resolution Unit had not made any progress on my request. I again strongly stated that I want a refund for this unit and they can have it back! She said she would discuss the issue with her supervisor and promised to call me again within 24 hours.

I finally heard back 2 days later and was told that all LG could do is continue to sent repair people out until one of them tell LG that the unit cannot be repaired. That is the only way for me to get a refund. I have filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and I will go to every website I can find to promote the truth... DO NOT purchase LG products because they do not stand behind them.

He loved it. So easy to use. Has a unit inside and all you need to put in window is the hose. So I got two 3 years ago. Last year bought my niece one.

Bought a 3 split airconditioner system Dec'16. Really cold and nice for a few months. Less than a year later, my unit started to rattle really loudly. 4-5 motor changes later, I forced them them to change the whole unit. To their credit, they did that. Then it started rattling again. Changed the motor again. Finally stopped rattling. But then it was no longer as cold as before, and even on low speed it's quite loud compared to others.

3.5 years later. Compressor motor started a loud whine that can be heard through the wall. Extended warranty only included parts. Fair enough. So here's the bill for a unit that still under warranty:

$100 - for the initial appointment to check.
$550 - For the 'labour' to repair/replace the 'free under warranty' component.

$80 - to top up gas.

$730.

Wait, there's GST on top of that. So, to repair a compressor under covered under warranty, it's almost $800, or about 32% of the cost price to do so. Cheaply made. Poor quality rubbish. Only good for the start, so I guess you can get that if you're running a temporary construction site for 1-2 years to use and throw away.

I bought a window LG Dual Inverter 15 months ago. I read many reviews and they were very negative but the "low noise thing" was hard to beat. Yes it is "low noise" at low speed but still worked good for my needs. Now it is freezing in the front coils. I have used the unit less than 6 months as I don't live permanent where it was installed. LG service is non-existent and now the warranty is expired. Also the front grill looks CHEAP in appearance and one or two clips broke during installation.

In May of 2012 I installed an LG mini-split ductless HVAC system at a cost exceeding $7,000. The system was flawed from the very beginning with water leaks. After 18 months the internal wall units began to whine and had to be replaced, that cost another $2,500. In February of 2020 I reported a no heat situation, which was diagnosed as a refrigerant leak. This is where it gets really bad: I was told by LG Customer Support to contact the original installer, who informed me they no longer support LG products. I contact LG Customer support making them aware of the situation, they gave me the names of three service companies within 25 miles that service LG products.

One number was out of service, one guy said he's on medical leave and cannot help. Only one of the three Companies took the call, but they informed me they do not travel outside their service territory. Again, no luck finding someone to service my LG system. I have extended my search by emailing the LG warranty support organization and have asked for someone from LG to help resolve the matter, that was 3 days ago - no response! At this point I'm facing a replacement of the LG system after spending almost $10,000 on a system that's flawed and non-existent customer support. I've learned my lesson - no more LG drama and pain for me; I'm moving on from this very expensive and frustrating lesson. I hope you've learned something from my painful story. No more LG for me, I don't need the stress, excessive cost and drama that come along with LG.

My advice is to not purchase a LG product. The unit did not work. Contacted the LG Customer Service for advice. Was connected to a lady in the Philippines who spoke "OK" English, she had no technical knowledge of A/C units. She referred to a written "protocol", the advice, leave the unit on for 24 to 48 hours. When I asked her why? She simply could not answer. Really a pitiful attempt to help the customer. Good manufacturers offer advice, LG just wants the sale, they operate under "Buyer Beware" and my advice is to be "beware" when purchasing from LG, if it works great, if it does not, do not expect any help from LG.

I bought an LG Window Unit LW2416HR about 14 months ago. It is a large unit, 23,000 BTU with heat. It lasted 11 months before shutting down constantly with Code 134. That code means excessive heat and pressure according to a local AC technician. I contacted Home Depot about the problem both locally and their Corporate Headquarters. They said after three months I must contact LG directly. After contacting LG and submitting all the required documentation, I was given a case number and told to wait 3-5 days.

After 7-10 days they finally called and said no technician is available in our area. Since the one year warranty had expired with all the delays and waiting, we were told nothing more could be done. We have bought three large LG window unit air conditioners. One lasted four years, one lasted 2 years, and the last one lasted a little over eleven months. The one that lasted four years also displayed code 134. The second one lasted two years before the fan motor started making a growling sound. The newest one started shutting down and displaying code 134. We followed all operating manual instructions about cleaning filters, shading the unit, etc. Nothing worked. Getting a technician to work on one of these units in a small town or the country is difficult or impossible. LG has a quality control problem with their largest window AC units.

LG 12,000 BTU window unit model # LW1216ER. Purchased over 3 years ago. Suddenly the compressor is continuing to run after completely powered down. Never cycles. Resorted to utilizing the "tester button" on cord plug in order to kill the compressor. Thought it was an isolated incident but upon contacting LG via chat the assistant failed to understand the situation, suggesting that the unit was located too close to a heat source and instructed me to try the econ mode which in no way corrects the problem.

After reading through the user reviews on the LG website I found that this is a widespread issue and LG refuses to acknowledge claiming they simply don't understand the problem. This is a confirmed fire hazard and feel that a recall needs to be made in order to replace the relay at fault due to it becoming "stuck". The units are not cheap and I’m not asking for a total replacement, just a repair. Planning on contacting the users experiencing this issue and collect signatures with customer’s complaints and hoping to file suit.

We purchased a 2 unit LG duct-free split system on April 15, 2016. The recommended filter cleaning is once a month. Each unit only operates about 8 hours a day. When the filters are removed, there is very little particulate matter on the screen. We even added the recommended 3M filters inside the interior of each unit. However, we have had to have the plastic blower wheels removed and cleaned because of extreme dirt and grime attached to the wheel.

This servicing has been done twice now for the interior units at considerable expense because we were told this problem is a result of our failure to keep the filters clean. Even our installer admits that we have a clean house. Along with the filthy blower wheels, we've also had the bedroom unit leak water inside the house on our bed several times. I am thoroughly disgusted with this LG product and wish we had never gotten involved with this brand. It kind of goes along with a LG television that was less than 2 years old that just went to a black screen one night with no warranty left for this problem.

I bought a very high end portable LG air conditioner and it has leaked inside the unit since the first day I bought it.

Every night I have to turn machine on its back to get the water that sitting inside the unit or it just will start spilling all over my floor. I can't get inside as it sealed but you can see where it drips from a cylinder.

When I called back they said it was out of warranty and there was nothing they could do... They told me to contact SoCal tech and when I did they said they don’t work on those anymore for LG. Probably because they are so poorly made. I paid over 400 bucks and the thing has never worked and they won't help me. And they can't even provide a paid service technician...

But to be honest all that I wanted was to have my unit fix. Nothing also, LG is a very big company and there were 3 air conditioner in a recall list. I wonder how many customer are having this same issue. I thought that someone must be aware of this since this company have a call center but the customer services never have notes about the callers. That is my experience.

Portable air conditioner - The manual states that there is internal evaporation and no draining is required. This is false. No drain hose is provided although there is a drainage port. Water drains down the inside onto the floor. I called for help in ordering a drain hose. Customer service is worse even than the product. I was told to go on Amazon and choose a hose for myself. Never will I buy another LG product.
