A leak from the freezer means the icemaker is overfilling OR the water valve is broken.
Hard to diagnose without looking the appliance, so, check:
Can you see if the water is coming out from the icemaker fill tube? If so, is the icemaker bar in the OFF Position?
If both questions are answered as yes, the the water valve needs to be replaced. Perhaps it was already broken or foreign objects went into it during installation.
The part number for this model is 61005997 and costs about $25.00 USD. Check at the local appliance parts store (or check in google for a local appliance repair and parts). As I don't have your location, I can't do it for you.
