Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20220301-1083D-2147357393. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Whirlpool WEG750H0HZ. Source model text: Weg750h0hz1. Incident: The gas stove burner on a new Whirlpool stove was accidently on. If you even lean on it a little the knob will turn. We caught this after the fact 3 times. We are only adults in our house and know this is an issue. Still it continues as it is so easy to do. I am concerned the house will catch on fire.
