GE PT 75505F7SS

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20200130-1008E-2147375124. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Product: GE PT 75505F7SS (GE Profile double wall oven Model PT7550SFss).

He ordered parts and came back a week later to discover the glass door was chipped and one of the new parts had a bent frame. He re-ordered parts and we re-scheduled again for the earliest available date another week later. However, the tech did not show up, no one called, and after contacting them again, we have scheduled yet a 3rd repair visit. I won't have had an oven for 6 weeks if they actually show up and repair it next week. When I looked online to see if others were having problems I see that there were several class action lawsuits as early as 2011 regarding the self cleaning feature destroying the oven control and/or shattering the glass door. I had used the self cleaning feature for the first time, sometime after Christmas but didn't make any c
