GE Recalls to Inspect and Repair Wall Ovens Due to Fire and Burn Hazards

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

Recalled product: GE Recalls to Inspect and Repair Wall Ovens Due to Fire and Burn Hazards

The hazard

The extreme heat used in the self-clean cycle can escape, if the wall oven door is removed and incorrectly re-attached by the installer or the consumer. This can pose a fire and burn hazard to consumers.

What to do

Consumers should immediately inspect the oven to make sure they do not have an incorrectly re-attached wall oven door, which will not open into the flat position. If the wall oven door is incorrectly re-attached, consumers should not use the self-clean cycle and call GE for a free repair. Consumers can continue to use normal baking or broiling function in the oven until the oven is repaired.
