After a year and a half the compressor went. After talking with a couple of repair men in our attempt to get it fixed under warrantee I find that it appears to be more of a new norm that these new fridges break down after only a couple of years and that it is cheaper to replace them once again than to fix them. There is no way that such a fridge should ever be considered energy efficient if one has to replace them ever 3 to 5 years. They are junk and so is the designation on them.
