Had this problem for years with GE fridge. Easy fix: simply cut an oblong piece of Styrofoam (approx 7"w x 10" h x 1/2" thick) and use double-sided tape to secure to the inside of the freezer door. See video below where the guy uses hot pads; we used Styrofoam instead. Worked like a charm. Water line has not frozen in years now. It insulates the door from the freezer and prevents water line from freezing.

I put in a thermometer that tracked the min and max temps and it gets as low as minus 17 degrees. There are two temperature sensors in the freezer section. I am considering replacing them.
