Incident: My GE Model LVM1750DPWW Over-the-Range Microwave caught fire. The microwave was manufactured in September 2012, delivered in December 2012 and installed in June/July 2013. The fire occurred on the rear right upper rack hook. The hook began sparking and caught fire. GE sent a repairman who said it was a safety issue, that he "wished GE would tell people not to leave the racks in the ovens" and that GE would bring another microwave to the house and install it for me.
