Incident narrative
SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20250222-B5D0A-2147332973. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: LG LDG4313ST. Incident: When I bought my house, there was already installed an LG gas range with a dual oven (Model number LDG4313ST) On multiple occasions, the slightest accidental bump or brush against the knobs has either turned the gas on or lit the fire on the associated burner on my stove. While wearing my baby in a carrier and simply walking past (not cooking) her foot bumped the knob and ignited the burner (no injury I turned it off right after) and I have bumped it walking past or leaning to grab a spice or something (thankfully no injuries at this time). I live in fear of my cat jumping up and turning it on when I'm asleep because it is just that easy to ignite or to turn on the gas. The knobs are also too large for most baby proofing covers (I've wasted money trying them) so I don't know what else to do. Today is the most recent occurrence but it has happened multiple times.
