If food in the bottom of the refrigerator is freezing, this could be caused by a refrigerator not having enough food to absorb the cold air. If food in the door is freezing, move the door bins up or down so they are one notch away from freezer vents. The fresh food control should be at the normal setting of 5.

If that is the case you will have set the temperature in that compartment of the fridge too low. Adjust it little by little until the freezing problem is solved because the bottom of the unit will eventually not get to freezing point.
The ideal freezer temperature is 0 Fahrenheit (-18 Celsius) for storing food. And -10 Fahrenheit (-23 Celsius) is recommended when freezing food. The preferred temperature is somewhere between 35 and 38 degrees F (1.7 to 3.3 degrees C).
If your model is the GS5SHAXN it has an electronic control for the temperatures. Not the typical thermostat. If it malfunctions either complete failure or an unstable control of temperatures. The part number is 2255233 at one place and part number 1016379 at another but the basic OEM number is the first one 2255233. I am going through some repair manuals to see if its possible something else might be causing this. I will return as soon as I can to see if that is the only reason that may be causing this. But with electronic controls I believe that it may be 48 degrees in the fresh food compartment is not safe. These controls are located in the fresh food section and connect with the temperature control. I'll be back soon, Sea Breeze
The problem may be low gas or it may be the thermostat is set too low. First, look at the possibility that you may have the food partly blocking an air channel which is where the very cold air is coming from.. Fridge side should read about 40 F after the door is closed for about an hour. If colder, adjust.
look under your refridgerator and see if there is alot of dust on the coils. Whenever food starts freezing in my fridge I vacuum the coils and the problem goes away.
