Check that model # again for me?

Perhaps getting to the root of the issue...

1) As mentioned, the freezer door, while otherwise appearing to be straight, both vertically and horizontally, is sticking out at the bottom right (non-hinge side).
2) I used a mirror and checked under the door....there is a pretty significant gap between the (newly and, I believe, correctly installed) gasket and the white interior base of the freezer. See photo
3) I also noticed that the distance between the edge of the door and the gasket is minimal along most of the edge except down by the problem lower corner, where there's a bigger gap. Not sure if this is normal.

Bottom line I guess is what would cause the bottom right corner of a door that appears undamaged to not have proper contact with what appears to be a correctly installed new gasket? The hinges? Yet they look ok too.

Thanks

Thanks so much for the reply....and apologies for the delay...not a lack of interest on my part but rather other more pressing issues in life. So thanks again for making the effort....really appreciate it.

Anyway, I removed the (new) gasket, placed it in hot water, dried it and put it back on to the freezer door. The gaps I had before now seem smaller but no amount of using a hairdryer has worked as far as completely eliminating the gaps. There's still a gap at the bottom of the gasket (non-hinge side), a smaller one at the top of the door (also non-hinge side), the freezer door is still is not flush with respect to the fridge door (meaning it's pushed out more in comparison to the fridge door), especially at the base, and I'm consistently seeing readings of 8 to 14 degrees per the freezer thermostat (located inside the fridge). Hate to have to drop $100 plus on having a GE tech come out and assess, never mind other costs, but at my wit's end.

Any other suggestions greatly appreciated. THANK YOU

Apologies for the long delay in response. Took a limited vacation from real life and the internet. Can you snap pictures from a little further back it's hard to see the seal fitment up close. Try to get one of the gap also.

Unless the hinge has worn out or the inserts in the door have worn out there's not much else that should be stopping it from closing all the way. And usually hinge issues affect the hinge side unless it is totally destroyed.

This kind of thing can be difficult to diagnose without being in front of the machine. A little bit of misalignment would not surprise me but the seal should be able to take up a considerable amount of gap.

Another trick with those seals is to put them in your dryer for a couple minutes, 2-3 is plenty; to warm them up uniformly.

I'm actually not sure off top of my head if that flap should be tucked in or not. I think not but I haven't seen one of these in years as I no longer work for GE.

Take care to get the corners pressed in fully and then you work your way to the middle of each side. The seals can kind of stretch as you work along them and sometimes a corner will not fit into the groove easily.

The repeated inverter failure is unusual in my mind. For the cost of those refrigerators I would not expect that.

Well I went out on a limb and loosened the screw so the two metal pieces don't rub against each other anymore. Regrettably the door still sticks out compared to the fridge door.

I also noticed that the freezer frame...the metal sides of the freezer body that the gasket touches when the door is closed, is very hot, especially at the bottom. Is this normal??
