WD21X10490
This is the 3rd time I'm ordering/replacing this part. The dishwasher worked great the 1st 4 years then the latch stopped working and had to replace around the start of the 5th year. A few months later it failed again, ordered, replaced and here we are about 3 months later and I have to order and replace again. That's 3 times in 2021 and it's only September. I use my dishwasher almost everyday, now I'm going to have to save to buy a new one as I really don't want to replace the same part multiple times a year. I have all GE appliances but 5 years doesn't seem to be a long enough time for a major appliance to start having this many issues.
Hello - Thanks for your review. We are truly sorry for your dishwasher experience. We can understand your frustration. We appreciate your feedback and we will pass it along to our product team for future product improvement. We apologize for the inconvenience it has caused. Olga@GEA

I have replaced this twice and had my dishwasher repaired several times. The dishwasher works well when it works; however, it seems like the device is inoperable more than it is working.
We're sorry to hear about your dishwasher switch assembly not working. We'd like to help out with this. We recommend scheduling service with our Bodewell team. We're confident that they can get this resolved. You can do so by calling 1-833-426-3393 or by visiting this link: https://www.bodewell.com/schedule-repair-service
Cheap plastic parts!
I've had this dishwasher for 2 years and this is the third door latch that I have had to replace. Read reviews on multiple sites. This is VERY common. I love the dishwasher and it is a fairly easy part to replace, but plan on buying several of these so you have it on hand when you need it. And I promise you will need it!
