small appliance repair

I have a 15 yr old KitchinAid Refridgerator, 'french doors, with freezer on the bottom'.

The freezer section just quit on me and things defrosting rapidly. I was able to move things from that freezer, to the second fridge in the garage for the time being.

I suspect the issue with the freezer may be the compressor is shot.
After 15yrs work, the main fridge section, may not be too long behind, before it totally shuts down. I guess after 15 yrs service, I've gotten my money's worth.

Should I bite the bullet and buy a new fridge, or invest the money (or should I say 'waste' the money). to have a repair company come out to diagnose ?
I think I know yours answers....

Thoughts ???
