Poor Warranty Service
I PURCHASED an extended warranty on my Kitchen Aid refrigerator on my 2009 refrigerator (cost 1500) I made my first service call on 17 July, the repairman did not come out until 24 July. They said it needed a part, they ordered the part and it didn't come in for 2 weeks then when they came back they said the refrigerator is not repairable. It is now 1 Sept and they have not fixed the refrigerator and the repair service South Texas Appliance REpair claims they told Whirlpool it couldn't be fixed and Whirlpool says that STAR has told them it needs another part to get fixed. I have called many times and keep getting the run around blaming the other person. They refuse to send out another repairman. They promise to call but never return my call. I would NEVER buy an extended warranty from them again.

Repeated Repairs
Purchased 5 Kitchen Aid Appliances in 5/02 when re-modeling Kitchen. All have had at least one repair. The Refrigerator has had 2 repairs for the same problem once in 2004 and one this year. I have called Kitchen Air as a consumer of their products to see if they would assist in the latest $500.00 repair to the control panel and since I have been out of a refrigerator since 7/30/08 due to a back ordered part???. Sherill who could care less, told me that since my refrigerator is older than 4 years, they would not assist in any way. When I reminded them that I own 5 major appliances, which are all Kitchen Aid, I was told in a most robotic form, that due to the age of my refrigerartor (6 years old) and having a recurring problem, there would be no assistance. For anyone thinking of purchasing an appliance from Kitchen Aid. STEER CLEÅR.
Not only is their product sub-standard, they do not stand behind their products.
