PRODUCT QUESTION
--------------------------------------------------
On 1/18/1999, I purchased a Maytag Neptune washer. It has broken 5
times in 5 years of moderate use: 2 water pumps, a seal, something wrong
with the buttons, and now the bearings on the tub assembly have gone out
and it errors out while filling (we have normal water pressure.) The
current repair estimate is expected to be over $400. This is not what I
paid the Maytag corporation $1,215.62 for only 5 short years ago.

When I say "moderate use," I mean we had 3 kids at home when we bought
the washer, and now we have 1 kid at home. We are very careful with
machinery and followed the user video and manual very carefully.

You can make a satisfied customer out of me by replacing this washer: it
has been very unreliable and a terrible reflection on the Maytag name.

I would be open to some arrangement like you paying for 1/2 the cost of
a replacement washer, but you need to somehow make good on the huge
investment I made in a Maytag washer.

My address is xxxxxxxxxxxxx., Normal, IL 61761. The serial number of my
washer is 33122415uy. The model is mah3000aww.

Sincerely, George Wiman
