Found a very cool site for those who have repair all sorts of household items:

3. You are worth your weight in Cheetos

LG screwed the pooch here by not treating their authorized repair people right. There used to be 6 such repair companies within 10 miles of me, but now there are none, and I was told by 2 that they dropped their agreements with LG because they either weren't getting paid for warranty work, or it took many many months to get payment. I am self pay as the warranties are long expired, but was told they didn't have access to parts any longer and had to decline the repair work.

The last time I needed a repair to the fridge for a locked up water line about 2 years ago, the closest authorized LG guy to me was a 3 hour drive (!!) and as is customary, included travel time in the labor charge.

So cheetos it is, my friend.
