LG Electronics Recalls Electric Ranges Due to Burn and Fire Hazards

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

Recalled product: LG Electronics Recalls Electric Ranges Due to Burn and Fire Hazards

The hazard

Burners on the electric ranges can fail to turn off after being switched off and the temperature setting can increase unexpectedly during use, posing burn and fire hazards to consumers.

What to do

Consumers should immediately contact LG to schedule a free in-home repair. Consumers whose burner heat setting cannot be regulated by using the controls or who experience problems with a cooktop burner remaining on, should immediately stop using the recalled electric range until it is repaired.
