Samsung dishwasher DW60M5070FS LC Alarm

I bought an Samsung dishwasher DW60M5070FS from Friedman and Cohen on 15 October 2021 . For about 4 weeks machine washed dishes fine...clean and dry after cycle ...even greasy pots ... and I thought ...yes a good choice over some of other brands I see a lot of complaints about. Till the dreaded Samsung LC error come up ....leaking machine and it stops wash process. Around 2nd week November 2021 I phoned in to Samsung customer care and within a week they worked on machine on a Friday. SATURDAY ALARM WAS UP AGAIN. THEY WORKED ON IT AGAIN MONDAY it seemed fine on Tuesday so ref was closed. By weekend I had a leak again . I then informed Samsung machine still not working and I will lock complaint in dec when on leave . So I did on 15th dec . By 17 dec I still had no feedback from Samsung. So I phoned them back and informed them its unacceptable. I will put in review complaint . And will try to get hold of Samsung in Fujii Chiyoda , Tokyo. As I feel they need to pick up strip repair test return unit ...or REPLACE. Its currently a R8000 piece of junk "**** " I told call center agent. 2 days on and I had no call or official email from Samsung technical

Paul .thanks for reply. But this model according to tech has a float and microswitch bit higher up .....so it do not pick up the old lc fault of prev models due to condensate ....
I tried the 15 min one did not work. With permission call center agent at Samsung i tipped machine backward at about 15-20 degrees and lots water came out ......then only the lc alarm reset but comes back on next wash cycle so definitely a leak

Update un situation
Samsung sa playing games with their clients .
Hope they realize their engineers in Japan can engineer the best and manufacture the best ...but all appliances can fail due to 3rd party supp**** part. If your after sales service sucks your client will think twice paying more for better engineered product and will rather buy cheaper product with descent after sales service. LG defy whirlpool . Long term effect is less sales less profit and need to scale down operations in countries where your after sales service such. Loss of jobs. My ref of 17 dec that went through all steps and on 21st Dec i got sms stating pickup repair is for 22nd was now suddenly canceled midday 22nd and new ref created to go through steps and date proposed24th thats old Christmas day ...who will accept repairs on this important date . Stop playing games Samsung and come pick up your paperweight today 22nd as originally agreed upon

Why when I use airtime and my time and log fault 15 dec continue 17 dec ...get a ref as customer
***
Get it through 3 phases till 21st dec a sms from Samsung stating my service date is 22 dec. Sit at home and midday get notice ref canceled and new ref created 22nd ***.I get no sms for new service date and refilled of call center- Samsung sa say its 24th that don't suit me .
Why do Samsung sa play such games with customers?
Even Emmanuel was unhappy with service he got from Samsung sa and you for his cellphone .
You and Samsung sa need to step up your part if Samsung want to stay a high end seller in sa .... quality means jack ass with poor after sales service
