Maytag washer almost 4 years started acting up. At the end of the wash the door would stay locked and it sounded like the machine was continuing to pump although there was no water being pumped out and I could not see any water inside the machine. Called for repair and used Maytag authorized repair company. They said it was the water pump so we spent $278 on the repair. Exactly 1 month later it started doing the same thing. Again we called repair and this time were told we probably needed a $300 pressure switch although he could not find debris in places where they would normally find when a pressure switch was needed. I asked if this repair was guaranteed to fix the problem and I was told NO. While we were deciding what to do the Machine started turning itself on. I was alone in the house and heard noises coming from the laundry room. The machine had turned itself on and was making a noise and blinking an error code. I unplugged the machine and the display stayed on.We realized the cost of repairs would far exceed the cost of a new washer and decided it was cheaper to purchase a new machine. At the appliance store when told them what was going on, they said it sounded like the machine needed a new master controller board. I was talking to a friend and her sister had the exact same experience with a Maytag washer and it was some main circuit panel that would have cost over $600 with only a 1 year warranty on the part.So we are throwing out a machine that is less than 4 years old, sure as heck not going to purchase anything with the Maytag brand................SHAME ON MAYTAG, money doesn't grow on trees......
