The lg washer class action claims that the rust starts around the bleach dispenser on the washing machine top. It s now october 2017. The bleach dispenser does not dispense the bleach. The metal surrounding the liquid bleach plastic cup has major rust and corrosion same for the soap and softner dispenser.

As the base metal has rusted under the porcelain finish it began to flake off. I purchased my lg top loader washer in april 2012 in 2015 i started to notice rust around the bleach dispenser. I contacted customer service and they were of no help. Did you change your paint baking or sheet metal.

The dispenser only drains the bleach when the washer drains at the end of the washer but it s pumped out. Why is this happening to such an expensive item we had another samsung washer before this for 10 years and never once did the paint chip rust or become discolored in any way. I m pretty diligent about cleaning up spills etc. Does anyone happen to have a mailing address for any top executives of lg.

The bleach dispenser is a plastic insert which fits into the metal top of the washer. The rusting has continued and now a larger area around the dispense is involved. There is a limited chance of carryover from this type of dispenser to the next load unless a consumer tries to add the bleach during the rinse cycle. But i started noticing rust spots on some of my clothes and realized it was rusting around the plastic insert for the bleach dispenser.

They said it was out of warranty and i asked if that was normal for a washing machine to start rusting a couple of years after purchase. And thought this strange if this were normal then all washers would rust around the bleach dispenser right. I finally pulled the dispenser out and was appalled by the amount of rust.
