Hotpoint Dryer: Loud banging noise in hotpoint dryer

My son sat inside my dryer and now it's making a loud banging noise, you can also feel the drum hitting the sides as it spins. My question is, is it easy enough to fix? If it's not and it's better to buy a new one, is it safe to use until a new one arrives?

Hotpoint Dryer: Won't stay on with loud noise.

Okay, so we just moved. Amana dryer was fine at old house. Move here, loud grinding noise and won't stay on past 10 seconds.

Replaced all of the parts. Same problem. Bought a new dryer, same problem! Loud grinding noise then shuts off.

Replaced the wiring from the breaker that is less than 3 years old, to the outlet, new outlet head. Everything is BRAND NEW and the dryer won't stop making the noise and won't stay on.

Hotpoint dryer: 2 different dryers not drying clothes! Help!

Mon, 05 Oct 2020 17:41:30 -0700

When I moved into my condo it had a washer and dryer already in it. I had to dry clothes 5 times just to dry one load. So I bought a brand new hotpoint dryer from HH Greg and the same thing is happening. It still takes drying clothes 4-5 times. I had a warranty and HH Greg came out and said there is nothing wrong w the dryer or the vent. They cleared the vent part that goes to the outside. (They either blew or sucked the space)

they didn’t leave me with any answers. Can someone help!?
