Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20161019-B7F2B-2147411877. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Frigidaire FEC30S6ABF. Incident: I have a Frigidaire cooktop. If the front right burner is used it will flair up to high even if on low. If turned off when flairing up it flairs up while off. The dial has to be turned on and off several times to stop it from being on when turned off. This was noted right after the warranty was up. Frigidaire stated there was nothing to be done on their end. I have since learned there is a recall on other models for the same thing. Mine is Model FEC30S6ABF. Serial NF70111971. This was purchased in 11/2007. Please consider this in the recall. It is a huge safety issue and has almost caused fires in our house, has caused severely charred cookware and burnt food. This has been happening since 2008.
