No one hurt Made Oct 11, 2015, sent to the company Oct 20, 2015, published by CPSC Nov 3, 2015
The product, in the report: The original refrigerator purchased with the home. Had an ice dispenser failure. The current dispenser bucket was purchased from a GE parts supplier.
I was repairing a neighbors GE ice dispenser with a broken auger drive cup and found ground up plastic particles in the ice dispenser. It appears some units were built with the wrong parts or incorrectly designed augers. These units have the auger length to long and the front end drills into the plastic ice dispenser bucket. The problem appears to be on both new refrigerators that came with our houses and in replacement buckets from parts supplies. I don’t know if the plastic particles are harmful, as most appear to be a fine powder, that can exit while water or ice is dispensed. The problem was also seen on you tube comments when people were repairing their ice dispensers, as the dis-assembly becomes very difficult as the auger has to be forced out of the plastic it has drilled into.
