Incident: Dryer cycle ended and clothes were removed. Closed dryer door and left house for 2 hours. When we cam home the dryer had started on its own and had been running for an unknown amount of time. This is an ongoing problem and after researching the internet we found numerous other buyers of the same product are having the exact same problem. There is obviously an electronic malfunction that could cause a serious fire.
