Would I recommend using Sears Home Repair Services and/or A&E Repair Services? Well before I can answer the question honestly I will share my recent experience. On February 28, 2022, I called Sears Home Repair Services to schedule a visit by a technician to check on why my refrigerator/freezer was not cooling. They scheduled a technician to come on March 1, 2022. A technician from A&E Repair Services arrived for the initial inspection as scheduled. He immediately told me that he knew what the problem was, it was the relay switch and the capacitor. I asked him about the compressor, and he stated that this refrigerator/freezer modes had a great compressor and would outlast the new appliances being made today. He ordered the part and I received the order electronically which I had to pay for at a cost of $101.76. He did not connect any type of diagnostic equipment to the appliance, in fact he did not even go behind the appliance, which I had already pulled out from the wall. I again called the Sears Home Repair Services to schedule the next appointment to install the ordered relay switch and capacitor, which were scheduled to be delivered to my home. On March 9, 2022, another technician from A&E Repair Services arrived to install the parts. He got behind the appliance put on the new parts and made several attempts to get the appliance running, but I could hear the compressor cutting off. Technician #2 now informed me that the compressor was bad. I asked him, why hadn't the previous technician identify the fact that my compressor was bad, but it was because he relied on his hearing and not on doing any type of diagnostic analysis. He asked who was technician #1 and I informed him. At this point it almost seemed that maybe the technicians where playing off of each other, basically trying to scam customers to get unnecessary appliance repair parts and then possibly keeping those parts that were not needed. Anyhow I had to order and electronically pay for a compressor kit to the cost of $389.11, which again would be shipped to my home. I called Sears Home Repair Services to schedule an appointment for a technician to install the compressor. I pleaded with the customer service representative to please not send the technician that came to my house on March 1, because I believe that had he properly done a diagnostic examination I would have had my compressor on hand for technician #2 to install, instead I was still without the use of my refrigerator/freezer. The customer service representative assured me that they would make a notation so that a different technician would be sent to install the compressor. During this time I was having medical procedures due to cancer, the extra stress of being without a freezer for going on almost 2 weeks was difficult. On March 18, 2022 an A&E Repair Services van arrived in my driveway, I could not believe my eyes, it was technician #1, very individual who had created my 18 days of living hell. I was almost ready to turn him away, but I was so frustrated, with this whole situation that I just wanted him to install my compressor and get out of my house. He seemed so shocked that the compressor was bad, he said he thought for sure when he was here before it was good. I had opened the compressor kit box and to my amazement it came with a relay switch, which I had already paid for when technician #1 did an improper guessing game about the reason for my appliance cooling issue. I told him I wanted that part, because technician #2 had already put the new one on. At this point I was really feeling that these guys were in a game of keeping extra parts that actually belonged to the customer that had paid for them. I truly believe that I probably didn't need the capacitor and that if he had properly diagnosed the compressor issue the first visit, he would have had a new relay switch to install from the compressor kit. He began to install the new compressor which required the use of a propane torch. I began to smell something burning, and all a sudden my smoke detectors went and he was asking my granddaughter to give him some wet paper towels. He again began using his torch and again set off the smoke detectors. When he finally finished he pushed the refrigerator back towards the wall and then realized he had burned to holes in my linoleum floor directly in front of my refrigerator. I have to keep a small rug over the holes as they are visible in front of my refrigerator. After seeing his destruction of my floor and the fact that it is now going on 19 days since he initially misdiagnosed the problem, I just felt like I needed him to make a speedy departure from my property. I called the Sears Home Repair Services to voice a complaint. When my husband got home from work he was pretty upset about the two burnt holes on the floor in front of the appliance, then he pulled out the refrigerator from the wall and discovered that the technician had not attached the cardboard cover back in place at th read more
