It may or may not be leaking now, but it *will*.



Leakage is the most common failure in DWs. A friend works for a

subrogation lawyer regarding insurance claims and sees it all the

time.

Hah... at my last house the DW when we looked at it the first time was an ancient Maytag unit. We asked the sellers if it worked and they couldn't say, as they hadn't used it the entire time they'd lived there (odd people. Nice, but odd.) We were going to make an offer on the place anyway, but apparently their realtor told them to replace it to make the house more marketable. When we showed up for the final walk through it'd been replaced with a new bottom of the barrel GE unit. The moron installers didn't put a clamp on the hose to the sink drain pipe... yeah, you guessed it. I'd rather they'd left it alone... I would have tried to repair the old Maytag, myself.
