Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20260202-4F30E-2147323947. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Product: Fisher and Paykel RGV3-366-N (Product Type: Gas Range Brand: Fisher & Paykel Model: RGV3-366-N Serial Number: EAV361038). Incident: Incident Description: A new Fisher & Paykel gas range experienced an internal gas explosion during ordinary household use. The explosion was forceful enough to open the oven door. Date of Incident: November 19, 2025 Was anyone injured?: No injuries occurred, but there was a clear risk of injury, fire, or property damage. Additional Details: The range was purchased new on October 22, 2025 and installed on October 27, 2025. The incident occurred less than one month after installation. A Fisher & Paykelcertified technician later repaired the appliance on December 4, 2025. The manufacturer has not replaced the unit and has offered only a limited warranty extension. Given the nature of the incident and the involvement of combustible gas, I believe this represents a serious safety defect that should be documented and reviewed.
