Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20260108-4E830-2147324753. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Product: Frigidaire FCRG306LAFG (Frigidaire Gas Range). Incident: The Frigidaire range was purchased December 2025. When the oven is used there is a very overwhelming gas smell. The oven then makes an explosion noise when it ignites, as it is full of gas. The preheat time is 45+ min, and in that time the oven is continually filling with gas. It has blown the door open due to the explosion happening inside of the oven. Lowes was contacted and told us to call Frigidaire. Frigidaire refused to let us return this unsafe product and demanded a technician will service it. Tech came today and agreed it should be replaced but stated he had to have approval from Frigidaire. When he called them, Frigidaire was aware of the problem and claims it is a burner issue. The Frigidaire employee stated that they have supposedly changed the burners, and told the technician to replace it. We are now without and oven until that part is replaced. This is a BRAND NEW product that I shouldnt have to worry about being repaired or lighting my house on fire. These units should all be recalled and replaced as they are unsafe.
