LG refrigerators,
specifically.
LG refrigeration is French door led, with InstaView and Door-in-Door models, and LG builds in self-reporting: Smart Diagnosis sends troubleshooting data to the LG ThinQ app on Wi-Fi models or by audible tone. Those reports are a useful starting point, and the physical checks still decide the repair.

All refrigerator typesWhat is particular
to LG.
Most LG service is on French door refrigerators, including InstaView Door-in-Door models with a separate door compartment. Door-in-Door units have more doors and seals to check, which is worth knowing when a unit runs warm.
A folding center mullion
On LG French door models the left door carries a folding mullion that keeps cold air from escaping between the doors, and it has to be folded in before that door closes. A bent or sticking mullion lets cold air out at the center, which can show up as a warm refrigerator rather than as a door complaint.
Ice made in the freezer, stored in the door
The ice maker feeds an in-door ice bin, and LG notes that ice stacking unevenly can make the ice maker misread the bin and stop. Frost on the feeler arm or in the delivery chute has the same effect, so no-ice calls often end at the bin and chute rather than the ice maker itself.
Smart Diagnosis before the visit
On the models that have it, Smart Diagnosis sends troubleshooting data through the LG ThinQ app over Wi-Fi, or as an audible tone from a speaker on the right door hinge to a phone. Running it before a visit gives the technician the refrigerator's own reading to start from.
Linear compressor noises
LG lists a rattle when a refrigerator with a linear compressor is jarred while running as normal operation. A single rattle after a bump is not a symptom; persistent noise together with rising temperatures is.
Parts
Common parts such as ice makers, fans and water valves are widely available. Door assemblies with InstaView glass are larger items and more likely to take time to arrive.
Repair or replace
Most LG repairs, including ice, fan, sensor and control work, are worth doing. Sealed-system work on an older unit is the point where comparing against a new refrigerator makes sense.
