My washer is dead. Only 7 years old. Kenmore.


I may be missing something here, but I don't consider a washing machine failing after 7 years to be any big surprise. Indeed, if it's gone that long without failing it's done better than most washers I've encountered.

7 years? That's not very long really, I've worked on plenty of washers that were 20-30 years old. Some of the new stuff is built pretty cheap but IMO any washing machine that doesn't last at least 10 years is garbage, and 10 years is pushing it, 15-20 is more reasonable.
