My new Maytag washing machine (purchased in Sept. 2020, model MVW6230HW) is leaving residue on black clothing.

I have a Hotpoint No-frost CSX22GR 21.7 cu ft refrigerator from 1998. Recently, it started getting warmer, and I noticed a lot of ice/frost inside the freezer. The icemaker is not working, but the water dispenser still functions. I cleaned the lower front grill and removed the frost, but there was no change. What could be the issue, and what steps should I take to fix it?

I have an old Maytag refrigerator (model Ptb1953gew, about 15 years old) with a filthy rear panel made of cardboard and fiberglass insulation. The part is no longer available. Can I replace it with a piece of solid insulation, or is insulation not required at all?

My ME21F707MJT model, serial number J77B7WTFC00725T, is 5 years old and has been making extra noise from the fan for the past 2 weeks. The noise starts as soon as the fan is turned on and increases after a couple of minutes. Are all the cables at the back of the ME21F707MJT connected tightly to the right sockets? Is the issue consistent or does it happen randomly? Is the ME21F707MJT currently hot to the touch, or has it overheated recently?

I have a GE washing machine (model GTWN4250D1WS, top loader, about 10 years old). Whenever I do a load of wash that requires cold water, all the clothes come out with streaks on them. I've changed detergents, used different wash settings, and different levels of water fill. I've cleaned the fabric softener dispenser, which I never use, and I rarely use bleach. What could be causing this issue and what can I do to fix it?
