General Electric Recalls Dishwashers Due to Fire Hazard

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

The hazard

Liquid rinse-aid can leak from its dispenser onto the dishwasher's internal wiring, which can cause an electrical short and overheating, posing a fire hazard to consumers.

What to do

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled dishwashers and contact General Electric for a free repair, a $150 rebate towards the purchase of a new GE dishwasher, or a $300 rebate towards the purchase of a new GE Profile or GE Monogram dishwasher.
