Metallic Odor

Our ge side by side refrigerator has a strong metallic odor in both the freezer and frige. The food in both compartments also taste metallic. We've had a repair man out who removed the ice maker. This has done nothing to reduce the odor. The refrig is only two years old. What could be causing this?

Hope that is helpful.
