LG Washer Mold?

[FunFamily]

Hi Friends:

I have an LG front loading clothes washer. It appears that there is mold forming at the bottom of the door gasket (on the inside around where the gasket's small drain hole sits).

If you have an LG washer, have you experienced similar problems? I have tried some bleach, but that does not seem to do anything. I am thinking of calling out a repair service to replace the gasket, any less expensive solutions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
FunFamily

We had a similar problem with a Maytag. I could not get rid of it but the repair man told me that you are supposed to leave the door cracked open when no in use to prevent mold. Apparently it is in the brochure I wouls call and see if they will replace it.

Same issue with a Kitchen Aid. Repair man told me not only to leave the door cracked, but to wipe down the gasket after the last load.
