We bought an oven and dishwasher from Fridgidaire. Both were non-functional on arrival--pretty annoying, but not enough for me to write off a Michigan company. After two months and 3 visits from the repairman things appeared to be resolved.
I called up Fridgidaire with what I took to be the reasonable request that they extend my warranty--at least for the 2 months that I had non-functioning appliances. After a 45 minute phone call in which I alternated between arguing and waiting on hold, the jerks finally offered to give me a one month extension to the warranty. That seemed pretty insufficient, but I agreed. They asked me again to wait on hold while they prepared the warranty info. 10 minutes later I hung up, feeling like I had been seriously dicked over.
I think my biggest mistake was thinking that "Fridgidaire" (which clearly should handle cold-based appliances) could handle hot things like an oven or dishwasher.
Ever since that experience I've encouraged everyone I know: NEVER BUY FROM FRIGIDAIRE!!!
