Incident narrative
SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20161221-DC9DD-2147409077. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Frigidaire Electric Range Model FFEF3054TS. Source model text: Fpec3085ksb frigidaire pro cook top. Incident: I bought a frigidaire cook top model fpec3085ks 2 1/2 years ago which worked well until 11/16. The cook top turned itself on at 2 am and melted a food steamer I left on the cook top. Yes I know not to smart of me. I could not turn the burner off no matter what I tried and ended up flipping the breaker. I called customer support and was told this is not their problem as they only offer a 1 year warranty. So in short I almost lost my house by fire I lost a $850 cook top and a $250 food steamer. I will spend a lot of time posting this warning on every blog, review board and web site that will listen. Do not by from this dishonest company that knowingly sell dangerous products. If you don't believe me just goggle "frigidaire cook top turned itself on" you will find this is not an uncommon occurrence. Thanks for reading.
