Whirlpool WFG3205MBW

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20260710-D2D25-6145291. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Product: whirlpool WFG3205MBW (Gas stove). Incident: The consumer recently had her kitchen remodeled. During the remodeling process, contractors moved the stove from its original position. Upon moving the appliance, they discovered that the floor underneath the stove was burnt and appeared melted. The consumer does not know when this damage occurred, as the burn marks were hidden beneath the stove and had not been visible prior to the remodel. Contractors placed the stove back in its original location while the consumer investigates the cause of the damage. The consumer is concerned that the burn marks may indicate a malfunction posing a fire and explosion hazard. She is unsure whether continued use of the stove is safe, given that a properly functioning stove should not generate enough heat to melt or burn the flooring. The consumer is very worried that this could be a potential fire hazard, overheating, or malfunction that could lead to combustion or explosion. No injuries have been reported. The consumer requests that the CPSC review the incident and advise whether the stove presents a fire or explosion hazard, and whether further action (inspection, replacement, recall information, etc.) is recommended.
