GE chest freezer, 6 years old, something like 19 cubic feet,

The temperature runs to -15 to -10 degrees F when I have it on the
warmest setting, which is to say it is colder than what I want, namely 0
degrees.

I am afraid it may be wearing out its compressor.

What is probably wrong?

Thanks.

Fully defrost it, this is a very common problem, both with freezers
and refrigerators. Plus it's cheaper to do than buying anything in
the way of parts..
