SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20110801-912CE-2147476670. Matched catalog product: Bosch Dishwasher. Incident: I have a Bosch dishwasher that is approx 4 years old. At 8pm on July 30th i heard a loud crackling sound coming from the kitchen - upon arriving in the kitchen found a large amount of smoke coming from the control panel area of the dishwasher. I immediately stopped the dishwasher to stop it and had to pull the front cover off to see the interior of the control panel. the entire inside of the control panel had burned and the exterior was starting to melt through.
