[Resolved]  Samsung — White Powder Leaking from Samsung Double Door Refrigerator

Address:20th to 24th Floor, Two Horizon Centre, Golf Course Rd, DLF Phase 5, Sector 43, Gurugram, Haryana 122202

We've purchased 275L Convertible Freezer Double Door Refrigerator RT30T3743S9 from Flipkart on May 30, 2022, and Installed by Samsung Engineer the very next day.

After only 2.5 months o[censored]se, WHITE POWDER/WHITE FOAM is coming from the top back panel.

I asked Samsung for help right away, and a video call confirmed that only a Service Engineer can check to see why this is happening. (Service No. [protected])

But it's been 4-5 days and no one has come to look at the problem with the refrigerator. They keep saying that it's been assigned and the engineer will be there today, but today never comes.

We've been frustrated as we store things because what if it falls in the food items? this white powder, it could hurt our health because we don't know what it is.

Just called as I was writing this, and they said that there might be a gas leak and that a gas engineer and a service engineer will be sent together. (Like, how did they know it was leaking gas before they even checked it?)

I'm not sure if Samsung India really cares about its customers, so I'd like to ask you not to buy a Samsung refrigerator because they have serious problems within three months.

Both the seller and the company that made the product gave very bad customer service after the sale.

Please think twice before you buy any home appliances from Samsung.

And if anyone knows what this white powdery thing is or how to fix it, please comment or tell me.

QUICK UPDATE #1:[protected]

An engineer visited and told us that there are Ants those who are eating the damping of the rear pane and hence this white powder releasing. Now the question is how come Ants entering? Isn't the side walls should be fully packed? Isn't it a manufacturing defects?

Well, With this i removed all the ant's and relocated the refrigerator to new place and make sure that no insect can come around with proper mosquito killer etc

Let's wait for tomorrow morning if the powder comes again or not!
