Frigidaire Gallery GCFG3059BF

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20260819-A8A7D-2147312182. Severity: Injury, First Aid Received by Non-Medical Professional. Product: Frigidaire Gallery GCFG3059BF (Frigidaire Gallery Gas Range, Model # GCFG3059BF, 30 inch front control, stainless steel). Incident: I am reporting a severe burn hazard on a Frigidaire Gallery gas range. This exact model number (GCFG3059BF) is currently under an active CPSC recall (Recall number 26-037/26 xx) for severe burn hazards related to the oven burner system. While my serial number falls just outside the official recall batch window, my appliance is exhibiting severe, dangerous overheating behaviors that mimic an engineered defect. When the oven is operational, hot exhaust air vents directly onto the front-facing control panel, metal bezel, digital display, and plastic control knobs. The entire front interface becomes so hot that it cannot be touched with bare skin without sustaining a burn. This creates an immediate and unacceptable safety hazard for the grand children in my household. Local appliance representative inspected the unit and claimed it was "working as designed to prevent glass explosions," but the exterior operating temperatures clearly exceed safe UL consumer standards. Because this specific model line is already recognized by the CPSC as a safety risk, I am requesting that the CPSC investigate units manufactured just prior to the current serial threshold, and compel the manufacturer to provide a safety remedy, heat deflector retrofit, or cooling fan repair for my household.
