Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20180306-3C477-2147389484. Matched catalog product: Bosch SHP65T. Source model text: SHP65T56UC/01, FD941200651. Incident: I own a Bosch dishwasher, model numberSHP65T56UC/01, FD941200651. On Friday 3/2/18 the dishwasher stopped working completely as it was receiving no power. On Sunday 3/4 we pulled it out to find that the junction box and connecting wires were black and charred. They had clearly burnt up. We were very fortunate that this didn't ignite an actual fire in the house. Upon researching online I came across the recall notice for Bosch (https://www.cpsc.gov/Recalls/2018/BSH-Home-Appliances-Expands-Recall-of-Dishwasher) but my serial number range (9412) is slightly outside the stated recall range (which only extends to 9403. This recall clearly needs to be expand to later models.
