GE Gas Ranges Recalled

June 8, 2007
General Electric is recalling about 2,600 "Monogram Professional" gas ranges.

The ranges have a design flaw that can cause an electrical arc between the wiring and griddle gas supply tube, posing a fire hazard.

GE has received reports of six incidents of gas leaking from the griddle gas supply tube, resulting in five fires under the range top. One consumer has reported burns to her hands and two consumers have reported smoke damage.

This recall includes 36-inch and 48-inch stainless steel Monogram Pro ranges with griddles. They are fueled either by LP or natural gas and manufactured from October 2005 through May 16, 2006. The recall includes the following ranges: Models ZDP48N6DHSS, ZDP48L6DHSS, ZDP36N4DHSS and ZDP36L4DHSS. The recalled range models have a serial letter plus serial number combination as shown below.

To find the manufacture date, and model and serial numbers, look underneath the top ledge (the “bull nose”) above the range controls.

The ranges were sold by home builders and appliance stores nationwide from October 2005 through February 2007 for between $4,000 and $6,000.

Customers with a recalled range should stop using it immediately and contact GE for further instructions and to schedule a free, in-home repair.

For more information, call GE Consumer & Industrial toll-free at (877) 546-0116 between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. ET Monday through Friday and between 8 a.m. and 2 p.m. ET on Saturday, or visit the firm’s Web site at geappliances.com.

The recall is being conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).
