Also, Troy Fire Dept responded to our home on 4/13/18.). Incident: For our GE Cafe Stove CGs990SET3SS, we have the igniter fail 4 times and it has burned a hole in the deflector plate on numerous occasions. it appears the igniter is too close to the deflector plate. The recent technician installed some type of modification. Then awe used it to cook a pizza and my CO carbon monoxide alarms went off in my house 3 times. We called the fire department ( Troy Fire Dept) on 4/13/18 and they told us to get out of the house. Upon their arrival, they found out that now the oven is not working properly and emitting Carbon monoxide gas. We called GE and the sent a technician to our home. He didn't even take a look inside the unit. I had shutoff the gas line. There are numerous complaints within the websites on this problem. GE need to replace the entire oven. I feel very unsafe to operate this unit in my home.
