SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20160905-203BA-2147414444. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Product: Frigidaire - owned by Electrolux The model number is FFHS2313L86 (Frigidaire Refrigerator The model number is FFHS2313L86, serial # 4A23301045. BTW, Electrolux that owns Frigidaire has said that they reuse serial numbers, so tracing our specific unit would be difficult.). Incident: Frigidaire Refrigerator caught fire We have (had) a Frigidaire Refrigerator. It was less than 2 years old. On 9/4/16, it started making crackling noises, then sparks came out from behind the unit, followed by a lot of smoke. Then, it caught fire. The only quick way for me to shut it down was to trip the switch on the circuit breaker. The model number is FFHS2313L86, serial # 4A23301045. BTW, Electrolux that owns Frigidaire has said that they reuse serial numbers, so tracing our specific unit would be difficult. After some online searching, we found many complaints about not only their refrigerators, but their dishwashers as well, of which, we have one of those as well. They both came with the house we bout not even a year ago. You would think that with all of these complaints about the same dangerous defects, that either Electrolux would have recalled these appliances, or at least helped their customers with the high costs of the damages. Also, think about if no one was home when these fires started, peoples' entire houses with all of their belongings, plus any animals that might be in the house - all gone and dead. This is outrageous that a company gets away with an obvious flaw/ defect in so many of their products, and top it off with the bad customer service that so many people have reported, it's amazing this isn't making National news.
