The freezer would generate cold air but not enough. The problem, I guess, ended up being the thermostat so what I did to fix it was I removed the metal panel on the inside back of the freezer and defrosted the whole unit. I left it unplugged for a day and a half and plugged it back in. It's been working perfectly since. Maybe try something like that?
this happened to my parents a few years back - they did the same thing - let the entire unit defrost - plugged it back in and it was fine
