The Freon gas will leak out and the fresh food section will slowly get warmer until it no longer gets cold. If you buy any Sub-Zero unit that is not the current BI model, the fresh food evaporator will corrode and fail. We entertain and even if we have family over and 4 or 5 of us have one drink with ice, it's gone.Let us explain how this works. There is no way to keep the 3 cube max ice setting, so the bin is always low on ice. You continually have to 'know when' to press the 3 ice cube button and it still puts out a VERY LITTLE amount of ice and it does not make it fast enough even when it's on the 3 cube setting. But no.it resets, then goes off and back to the 1 ice-cube setting, so the ice maker automatically puts itself back on the lowest setting, with 1/4 of the small ice bin with ice cubes. But not only does it have a very small ice bin, but the control panel that has a pictures of 3 ice-cubes that you have to manually tap when you want the max ice, which is a small amount - We thought this 3 ice cube feature would keep the bin nice and full. We are so dissatisfied with our $12,000 Subzero - It's a large refrigerator, standing 7 ft tall with two pull out freezer bins. I actually don’t know what to do at this point. Really? That’s rich! If they change compressor that’s another $2000 because only the part is covered not the labor. Now the “certified” repair is telling me all refrigerators make a noise. Changing those parts was a guessing game. Not only is it not any better after the replacement parts, it’s actually worse. When the freezer compressor comes on there is a loud vibrating noise, and then hours groaning on and off and it runs constantly.

Sitting 15 feet away from it you can hear a wind from the fan. It sounds like an old car is in my kitchen… And it sends out vibrations. This refrigerator can be heard 40 feet away and this has been going on for six months. The “certified” repair people replaced the circuit board and the fan motor for $1200 which didn’t change a thing. It worked fine for 6 1/2 years and then it started making noise.
