Many consumers who have purchased a Samsung top load washer have complained of premature rusting in the washing machines. However, Samsung has advertised its machines to be “gentler on clothes” and resistant to chipping and rust.

But customers do complain of rust within the washing machines’ water drums, as early as one year after purchase. Rust then renders the machine unusable and compromises its function as a washing machine.

Some complaints surrounding the Samsung top load washer is that, despite a recall that occurred in November 2017, Samsung fails to address the rust issue and consumers are required to face technicians who will not fix the issue.

These complaints have prompted the initiation of a class action lawsuit investigation.

Overview: Samsung Top Load Washer

A class action lawsuit was recently filed against Samsung over allegations that the company’s top load washer causes the machine to prematurely fail due to rust. One case and claim made by a customer alleged that it was only a year after purchase that she discovered rust on a top loading machine she purchased in 2013.

The customer claims that by 2017, she could no longer wash clothes because the machine was so rusted. She was also simply told by Samsung technicians that the rust was a “cosmetic” issue and nothing more. All this resulted in her having to wash her clothes elsewhere since the rust on the top loading machine would damage her clothing.

A Samsung washer voluntary recall was announced in November 2017. The recall involved top load washers manufactured between March 2011 and October 2016. The recall was the result of reports of significant issues involving the top load washer.

Some of these issues included triggering excessive vibrations, the washer drum losing balance, and reports of the washer’s top portion to separate from the machine’s body. Other problems associated with the machine occurred when the washer was placed on a high-speed cycle and used to wash water-resistant items, bulky items, and bedding.

However, even despite the recall, consumers are still complaining that rust issues associated with the Samsung top load washer are still not being acknowledged. Technicians are also not being made available to help fix the issue.

Legal action may be taken through the filing of a Samsung top load washer lawsuit and through joining a Samsung top load washer class action lawsuit investigation.

The Samsung Top Load Washer Lawsuit is Case No. 30-2018-00968326-CU-FR-CXC, in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Orange.
