Haier HTQ21JAAWW ISSUES!!!

I am having the same problems as apparently a ton of other people with Haier Fridge Model HTQ21JAAWW. The fridge is sitting at about 55 degrees and spoiling everything. My freezer seems to be working but only on the coldest setting. It has the wall of ice on the bottom so I removed the bottom plastic piece like you said to here:

2 common problems that unit has. 1 is the cold controls go bad and will cause the unit to either run or not run. 2 the freezer drain gets blocked up very easy and when the freezer defrost the water has noplace to go but the freezer bottom and could block the air passages so the cold air will not satisfy the control. so check the freezer bottom by removing the plastic peice on the bottom there are 3 plastic plugs in the front that secure it and some phillips screw in the middle. you can just lift it to check for ice. if there is none replace the cold control. good luck
but now what....? Wait for it to defrost and see if it works? Please let me know as soon as you can!

thanks

    ... and the problem appears to be the draining, as water pools and does not go down.  I have tried flushing it with hot water, tried blowing air in from the top down, tried blowing up the tube from the bottom -- nothing, water will not go down.  Not sure how to snake such a small tube.  Suggestions??

Door seal comes loose, shut the freezer door and the fridge door opens. What is a possible problem?

Most likely the seal is worn, however have you wiped all the build up of any mold and debris from the seal and frige frame that seal closes to?
Sometimes just a good cleaning with hot water and mild (not harsh sprays) soap like dish soap can bring the cling back.
Otherwise its replace the seal.
If your broke you can latch the door shut by making a Velcro handle on the outside.
