No, Frigidaire is not manufactured by LG. Frigidaire and LG are completely separate appliance companies with different ownership, manufacturing plants, and engineering. Frigidaire is owned by Electrolux AB, a Swedish multinational appliance company that purchased Frigidaire in 1986. Frigidaire appliances are manufactured in Electrolux factories in the United States, Mexico, and other locations, with major plants in Memphis, Tennessee and Juarez, Mexico for refrigerators and cooking products. LG Electronics is a South Korean company headquartered in Seoul, part of LG Corporation, and manufactures its appliances in its own factories in South Korea, Mexico, China, and the United States, including a large plant in Clarksville, Tennessee for washers and dryers. While some retailers may sell both brands side by side and they compete in the same categories, they do not share manufacturing or parts. There is some confusion because both brands sell similar types of appliances and some third-party suppliers make generic parts that fit multiple brands, and because Electrolux and LG both produce appliances for other private labels, but Frigidaire is not made by LG. If you need parts, you must order Frigidaire parts from Electrolux and LG parts from LG, as they are not interchangeable.
