Ice maker is part # WR29X10093 with the sliding plastic shut off arm. Is this a common problem with this ice maker as ice maker has been replaced before. Any comments, please.

Look at where the paddle of the icemaker is compared to the top of the icebucket. there is about 2 inches, maybe less, of a gap between the top of the bucket and the paddle. What we do in the field to correct this issue is to take the paddle off the icemaker, get a heat gun and heat the paddle so you can create a bend downward on the paddle. You want that paddle to be even with the top of the bucket, so it shuts off when the bucket is full. Let me look for a pic of what I'm talking about.
