I purchased a treadmill on 11/22/22 and paid $150 for white glove delivery. The delivery team stopped the assembly because a part was damaged in shipping. They told me Nordictrak would need to send a tech with the part and that the technician would complete the assembly. I have spend countless hours on the phone and trying to reach someone by chat as well. I am currently on hold once a again going on 30 minutes now. I responded fully to the email responses about the problem only to be told to call parts and service. At this point, I want someone to call me, make an appointment to fix the machine and come out and fix it. If that cannot be done then come and collect the treadmill-shaped object and refund me all I have paid.

On 1/4/2023 I was sent a software update for the IFit tablet on my Pro-form Pro **** treadmill. Once I completed the update, my IFit screen is stuck on recovery mode. It only displays a robot with the wording "supported API 3". I called the IFit support line and was put on hold for 3 hours and was disconnected before speaking to anyone. I called back again and was on hold for another 3 hours and when I finally spoke to someone in customer support they told me that my machine was out of warranty and that would need to buy a new tablet for $700. I bought this machine in 2020 for $1200 and I could go buy another machine for almost the same price they are trying to make me pay for a new tablet. How do I know that this same issue won't happen to the new tablet? This is absurd, my machine worked perfectly before they pushed their latest update. Now, I am unable to use my treadmill. How can a company push bad software update then make me pay to fix it. This is terrible customer service and they need to fix my machine!

******,
We am so sorry to hear the troubles the new update appears to have caused for your machine. It is obviously always our hope that these machines will work for you seamlessly, so it is saddening when that is not the case. Fortunately, in taking a better look at your account and information we were able to find that your machine does indeed still have part coverage under the warranty. Because of this, I went ahead and ordered a replacement Console for you to the address that you filed this complaint under. Please know that the typical shipping time frame on these orders is **** business days, and delays due to the season may apply. Although you should receive an order confirmation to the email on your account, just for good measure your order number is ICS9578359. The order can be tracked at iconservice.com/order/status.
I hope this takes care of things for you, however, if that is not the case please let us know. Thank you for your patience, and ongoing support.

I own a PROFORM PRO **** that worked perfectly until iFIT pushed a software upgrade a few weeks ago that bricked thousands of machines, including mine, rendering the consoles inoperable. I can no longer use the treadmill. Attempts to contact a customer service representative have been unsuccessful. The parts warranty is good through April 21, **** however without the ability to reach customer service, how will ******************** honor the warranty? ProForm has bricked thousands of devices installed with iFIT that a cursory search on the internet will corroborate. They need to replace the console or the entire treadmill.

The treadmill bought from Nordic Track approximately 3 years ago. It was recently updated and now the treadmill no longer works. Waited for 2+ hours to chat with customer service but was told I was responsible for buying a new console for the treadmill because it is no longer in warranty. This update was sent from NordicTrack which caused the treadmill to fail. This should not be a warranty issue and NordicTrack should provide a fix free of charge.

*****,
I am so sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues with your machine following an update. It is obviously never something that we hope any of our loyal Members are faced with.
Unfortunately, I regret to inform you that there is no way we will be able to replace the Console free of charge due to the circumstances of this particular situation. The manufacturers warranty that comes with the machine is designed to cover any manufacturer defects for a set time period. As a business we do have to put an end date to that warranty. If no issues present themselves within that time frame, it is then at your digression to determine whether or not you would like to proceed with purchasing an extended warranty to further protect your asset following the expiration of the manufacturers plan. Unfortunately, with none of that coverage being present on your machine our hands in this situation are tied.
On a personal level I do empathize and understand why this is so upsetting, and I apologize that the machine is now having issues that are not covered. If there is anything else that we can do to help you in this situation, please advise. Thank you!

I am rejecting this response because: I will never buy or recommend NordicTrack ever again. A malfunction to the console caused by NordicTracks own update has ruined a perfectly good treadmill. The fact that the remedy is 50% of the cost of the unit is ridiculous. This incident seems as though NordicTrack is engaging in planned obsolescence with their products.

I have been trying to reach Nordictrack/IFIT for about 3weeks via email, chat bot, phone calls and reaching out on social media with no avail. The customer service aspect of this company is non existent. I have tried calling where I purchased the product and they can do anything for me as they have a contract that does not let them service my machine. I am in need of a new screen and just would like some guidance on how to get this done.
Business Response

*****,
First and foremost we just want to apologize for the frustrating undertaking it has been to get in touch with one of our representatives.
Next, we would love to get you the sought after information on the process of getting a new Console. After evaluating your account we were able to see that it appears you are no longer covered under a labor warranty, however, you are still covered for parts. Because of this, as long as we get a professionals diagnosis we will be able to send the Console to you free of charge under the remaining part of your warranty. If you are wanting to set-up with one of our certified technicians to complete said diagnosis this is definitely something that can be arranged. If not, any tech will do we will just require a professional invoice stating the findings of the visit.
Hopefully this clears up any confusion! We appreciated your patience and diligence in working with us. Thank you.

I am rejecting this response because:This does not SOLVE the issue of getting in touch with them, the company still has not responded to my well over 14 trouble tickets OR returned ANY of my phone calls they have said they would return via "Hold my place in line and call back"
This email gives NO place to contact them regarding the issue only that they will help me when I get a hold of them. THAT is the problem I CAN'T GET anyone to respond.
I need to know WHO to contact that will actually answer the call. I have no idea who is responding to the complaint, is it IFIT or NORDICKTRACK? I need someone to call me contact me to get the service that is required to get this machine fixed.
I can also have them call me at ************ to leave a phone number or email or name of someone to do the service.

I bought a machine and it came with a one year membership for free. But now they do not wanna honor it because I dont have proof of the purchase of the machine that I bought two years ago, but the one year membership had no expiration. I have reached out with proof of warranty though and they still will not honor and unused and no expiration date membership card

We own a ProForm **** that worked perfectly until IFIT sent a software upgrade a few weeks ago and corrupted thousands of machines including ours rendering the console inoperable. We can no longer use our treadmill or the IFIT membership. Its virtually impossible to speak with a customer service representative. Once getting through via phone we were told we would have to purchase a new console for $600. We didn't break it. They did. They need to replace the console or the entire treadmill. The company is at fault.

Purchased a treadmill that was to include 1 yr free of IFit membership logged in after numerous attempts to find it is only covering 30 day?? I could have purchased another companys machine and received the benefit I was looking for. Plus charging 49 a month for an online fitness app? Thats more expensive than a health club membership!

*****,
First, and foremost thank you so much for your diligence in reaching out to us, and your patience as we continue to work to get things taken care of for you.
In taking a better look at things, utilizing the information on your account, and the information provided in the complaint we were able to see that there was a glitch in the activation code used. It should have applied the full year, however, for whatever reason only applied the month. We got that changed on our end, made sure to get the correct amount applied, and at this point we are showing you should be all set until January 7, 2024.
I hope this clears things up, and takes care of any issues that were concerning you. Our deepest apologies for the stress and inconvenience of this situation. Thank you for your ongoing support!

I have not been able to use my Nordictrack commercial **** treadmill since last Sunday (1/1/23) because the video screen is frozen. I performed a reset and the screen now says supported API: 3 with a robot image. I submitted an ifit service ticket (*******) but have never heard anything back. My ifit subscription is up for renewal but Im not renewing my subscription if my treadmill will not function. It worked with no issues prior to that.

We have a nordic tract c1750 treadmill which has stopped working about 2 weeks ago. The console screen is not booting up and is stuck on a "ifit" screen. The treadmill has always worked fine for the last 2 years. We have been trying customer service for days and have been on hold for hours. We were told to try resetting which we did over 20 times. Then we were hung up on after someone put us on hold! After searching online, I see many people with the same issue, possibly all starting from an update sent recently which corrupted the machines. This is unacceptable and the lack of support is ridiculous. These are expensive pieces of equipment that are essentially useless now! What terrible service. I ask that nordic track or ifit or whomever is responsible for this to rectify the situation. Thank you.
