What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA
I'm currently in California and renting an apartment where they have provided a refrigerator for us to use. However, about a month ago, the fridge compartment of the unit stopped cooling. We contacted maintenance and requested someone come and fix our fridge. It took them several days to get back to us, then a week later someone finally came to look at our fridge. They attempted to fix it but weren't successful. We called them to come back out and that took another week and they didn't fix it again when they came. A couple days after that the maintenance man tells me that he's going to call our complex and tell them we need a new fridge. It's been a week and we still haven't heard from our apartment complex despite our phone calls. As a pregnant mom of a toddler, having no fridge is absolutely unacceptable. At this point I am looking into buying our own fridge. Can I tell our apartment to come take their broken fridge and make them sign something acknowledging that I am no responsible for their broken fridge and so on? What if they don't take it? I've had it with our management. This happens all the time but this is just frustrating.
