Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20121211-DCF78-2147461140. Matched catalog product: Kenmore 790.9446.3700. Source model text: 79096643700. Incident: Kenmore Elite Smoothtop Range. Two days ago on 12.09.2012 after cooking lunch and turning the burners off, the front left burner turned on by itself and would not turn off. We pressed the off button multiple times but it would not work. We then tried to change the temp setting to low but it did not work either. We eventually had to unplug the entire range to get it to turn off.
