Default Freezer works fine, refrigerator is warm
Brand: General Electric
Model Number: TBX18JMS
Age: More than 10 years

This model has the freezer on top, fridge on bottom. Freezer works great, fridge is warm. If I turn the power off for a day or two, and then plug it back in, the fridge works fine for awhile (a few weeks), but then gradually warms up again.
