What breaks on LG refrigerators

In 58 LG refrigerator repairs our technicians diagnosed since June 2026, the most common findings were ice maker (48%), sealed system (compressor / refrigerant) (29%) and water valve / leak (16%).

These are repair reports, not a reliability ranking: we see more of the brands more people own, and many of these jobs came through home-warranty companies. Counts are what the technician found; one job can show more than one problem.
