With mine, the bottom of the plastic bar was hanging up on the made in America sticker. The plastic piece would stick and it was like having the door not sealed in the middle. I removed the sticker and all has been well since. You can actually hear the piece click shut when it is functioning properly. Open both bottom fridge compartment doors and then close just the left ....if that black bar doesn't snap closed...that's the issue. My temps went from 42 to 32 in the fridge and my excessive condensation issue was also resolved!"
Went out and checked my fridge and sure enough the plastic bar that creates the seal between the double doors on the fridge was hung up on the "made in the USA sticker"!!!!!!! I could actually feel the cold air pouring out between the doors when I knelt down to look under the doors.
Peeled the sticker up and made sure the door seal closed and the temp has been dropping a degree every few minutes.
Explains why the freezer was working fine and the fridge wasn't!!!!!

UPDATE
Seal was still hanging up on the bottom of the fridge. Found a fairly thin washer and slipped it on the bottom hinge.
Closes every time now.
