I've been hearing reports about older style GE washers' transmission boots pulling off of the outer tubs and water going onto the floor. How often does this actually happen? |

I hadn't heard about that, but they DO eventually tear and spill their guts |

We had a GE washer back in the 70's that eventually dumped 20+ gallons of soapy water onto our garage floor. Within 6 months of purchase. When the serviceman arrived for the warranty repair, we found that part of the suspension was missing. Resulting in excessive balance issues during spin which eventually worked the boot loose. I guess the installer thought the yokes(sp) were part of the shipping brackets and unscrewed them from the base of the machine. Parts replaced at no charge. MRB |
