CPSC, Maytag Corporation Announce Recall of Kenmore Elite-Brand TRIO Model Refrigerators

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

The hazard

A screw located inside the refrigeration compartment, on the left side of the refrigerator frame, could pierce through the electrical wire harness insulation and pose an electrical shock hazard.

What to do

Sears already has contacted, by telephone or mail, the consumers who may have received an affected model, to set up a free in-home inspection. Defective refrigerators will be replaced at no cost to consumers. Sears is offering a $100 gift card as an incentive to all customers who own one of the Kenmore Trio recalled refrigerators.
