Product review (1 stars): After I replaced my piece of crap LG dishwasher I took off the motor and discovered ...
I'm not rating the seller but actually the LG design. The reason the motor fails is because the seal where the motor shaft goes through wears out, causing water to leak onto the motor and rust it out. The seal is embedded in the assembly and it appears you cannot replace only the seal. LG warrants the motor (not the assembly) for 10 years, but what they do is send out an LG technician for a $160 service call visit, and the tech replaces the motor but not the seal which still leaks and your new motor will fail again in less than a year. This happened to me twice before I gave up and bought a new dishwasher, of course a different brand. After I replaced my piece of crap LG dishwasher I took off the motor and discovered the problem. So LG temporarily fixes the symptom but not the real problem (faulty seal). I will never purchase another LG product again and I hope there will be a class action suite filed against LG for this poor design and poor business practice of sending a technician to not fix the problem while charging you $160 for the visit each time.
