I’m thinking if this noise can’t be fixed, I may just dump this new frig and upgrade to a better, quieter model.
I suggest that you contact the warranty department and simply say your refrigerator has started to make an unusual noise. They will likely give you a phone number for GE warranty claims. This number appears to be a special phone number used by the developer for GE warranty claims.

My GE Profile refrigerator was making an unusual constant noise last year and what I described is what happened. In my case, the problem was a bad seal in the freezer drawer causing the defrost fan to work constantly.
