Why it was recalled
During extended broiling, gas can build in the oven cavity and escape when the oven door is opened. This poses a burn and possible fire hazard to consumers.
Incidents and injuries
Electrolux has received 16 reports of incidents involving gas build-up, including flames escaping from the oven door, burns to the hands and face, and singed hair.
Official remedy
Consumers should immediately stop using the "broil" feature on recalled ovens and contact Transform for Kenmore branded products to schedule a free repair. Consumers may continue to use the "bake" feature.
