Incident narrative
SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20191231-DCD37-2147375677. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Frigidaire FPGH3077RFF. Incident: Malfunctioning gas control knobs on the front top of the range. I have owned multiple gas ranges over the last 40 years and have never had the following issue. The knobs on this range turn to an on position with virtually any contact. An inadvertent brush against them, or bumping into one while cleaning the range top initiates gas flow and/or ignition, posing a significant safety hazard. Every other range we have had required the knob to pushed in and rotated, or a positive "click" to initiate a start. Brand: Frigidaire Model No: FPGH3077RFF
