Frigidaire Ranges Reviews

My control panel at times won't shut burners or oven off. Model # cpef3081kfb, ser # vf93472855. I was purchased about two years ago. I am afraid of fire or my children getting burned. This product should be recalled. This is just not right.

It's a Model PLEF398CCD oven, a runaway burner about 4 months ago that only shut off with breaker flipped or unit unplugged from wall. They replaced surface unit control board ($180) to fix the problem. Now, very bright arc came from the back of the unit while cooking on convection. It tripped the breaker. Insulation is burned across the convection assist element connections. Now the oven light won't shut off. I'm guessing the main oven control board is damaged ($200+). While researching,I found out the unit was recalled for fire hazard. Frigidaire never notified me of the recall.

Oven timer/controller on Frigidaire model plef398dca caught fire after starting oven on bake mode. Loud pop sound from back of stove followed by lots of black smoke, fire and molten electronics metal parts, coming out of top range vents.

My daughter had a friend over and we were rolling out dough and baking Christmas cookies. Suddenly a loud buzzing sound startled us. Next we smelled and saw acrid black smoke thinly escaping from the top of the range. I ran downstairs to turn the power to the oven off at the electric panel. We checked for fire in the oven and there was none. Note: the unit did not turn itself off.

I was using the self-cleaning oven the 2nd time, and the outer glass on the oven door exploded and flew all over kitchen floor. It was purchased on April 21, 2010. I feel this is a defect in workmanship. The model # is 970-506-422. This happened on December 14, 2011. Very unsafe! Someone could have been injured if by the stove. The glass flew 6 feet at least, and it was very hot. Millions of pieces of glass were all over my floor.

I turned on my gas oven to self-clean. I turned it off manually after 2 hours. Good thing because the heat through the door vents actually melted my knobs and burned the top of the oven door! I have never had that happen in a self-cleaning oven. A little dangerous I think!

This morning, I was about to leave for work and smelled something burning. I knew I had not turned on the stove this morning. When I went into the kitchen, two burners were on and would not turn off. Food on the stove was burning. Had I left earlier or not been home, I am sure this would have resulted in a fire. I hope there is a class action suit. I will go to the store where I purchased this today to see if they will do anything. I seriously doubt it's because the dishwasher I purchased at the same time overflows constantly and ruined my hardwood floors last year. I told the store but they did nothing.

My Frigidaire electric range/oven came on by itself, overheated, and could not be shut off. We had to turn off the breaker. Frigidaire advised us to call a servicer and we would be responsible for the cost of the repair. He replace the computer board/clock and the oven probe. He then advised us to cut the breaker off when we left home. While on the phone with Frigidaire, they told me my stove PLES389EC1 was recalled for the burners coming on by themselves. Mine had and I had no idea of the recall. Funny, the certified Frigidaire servicer had not been notified either. This model is dangerous and could burn your home down. I am going to replace mine.

I have a Frigidaire oven (cfef372eb4) that gets to very low temperature, and shortly after begins to climb to higher temperatures. The glass cook-top is inconsistent at best. I have been able to boil water on low, and completely ruined meals on simmer. It is only 3 years old, and the oven has been used 3-4 times a week. I have tried to determine the malfunction according to the F10 code, and sought technical advice, but got none from Electrolux/Frigidaire. To have the simplest diagnosis and repair done, appears to cost between $200-$600.

I have a Frigidaire electric range model FEF177ABE that had the oven not shutting off. After baking, it got hotter and hotter. It starting beeping and displayed F1 in the clock area. I went to pull the range out to unplug but all the burners on the top came on making it too hot to move. I had to trip the breaker. This is a real fire hazard. Frigidaire wants me to call a repair company. After researching and seeing the issues they have had with these ranges, I am buying a new range and it will not be a Frigidaire.

We purchased a Frigidaire electric range, model FEF326ASK in Nov. 2006 to replace an old range that had come with the house but had stopped working. Very quickly the Frigidaire started having problems. After about 6 months, the large burners, when turned on, would often (but not always) go to high heat, causing food to burn, making them unreliable. Next, the supports holding the touch panel (which controls the oven temp and timer) broke. When we opened it up, we found the supports were made of cheap plastic, not metal. We tried to order a replacement part for the support but to no avail. We eventually managed to rig something ourselves using metal wire to support it.

The burner turns itself on and won't turn off. The burner then automatically turns itself on high causing things to burn. This is a fire hazard and also causes a loss of food due to the burner not working correctly.

I am an interior designer who bought in 2009 a Frigidaire professional series stove, microwave, refrigerator, and dishwasher. This was for a remodel for my mother's kitchen. She is now 97 and still lives in her home. I was just advised by a technician that the pump is out on the dishwasher and that is why it will not drain. This is a dishwasher that is used maybe once a month and on holidays. So, over a two-year period, maybe it was used 20-30 times. I was advised by a Frigidaire CS rep that there was nothing they could do. These are crappy made stuff.

Everyone who has complaints about their appliance should contact the company that approved the defective product. There should be a label somewhere on the product and in the manual. It could be ULC or CSA.

Last week, my Frigidaire electric range model # FEF376AQA became extremely hot while baking fries. It would not shut off or cool down. Finally, I had to unplug from the wall. It stayed hot for several hours. I contacted Frigidaire and I was advised that I need to have a technician take look at it, at my expense, because it is out of warranty. My stove is not beat, it's used but taken care of and looks as good as it did when we first purchased it. I find it rather alarming that there are so many complaints about these stoves and that Frigidaire isn't really taking responsibility. The stove that this one replaced was 35 years old. It was a Kenmore and we felt it was just time to replace it. I should have never done it, it worked better than this one ever did. I know that manufacturers have warranties for a reason, but when so many people have these issues that are serious, you would think this company would step up and take notice.

I bought a Frigidaire Gas stove a little over the warranty time a year ago. These products are so cheap you may as well make them out of tin foil so they can be thrown away when they get dirty. The cook top was blemished when we got it delivered to our home. I decided to let it go as it was only 2 spots. Well a year later, it looks terrible you cannot clean any spots off the top. My grandmother's stove we have for over 15 years still looked like new. I will never purchase any products from Frigidaire . I will be sure to tell everyone I know to not buy them. Electrolux extended warranties are a joke, do not waste your money. We now have a 1-year-old gas stove that looks like it has been through a war. I am the only person who cooks on this stove. The coating from the factory is a poor excuse for a stove top. I do not want to rate this as a "1" but I had to choose 1.

I have a Frigidaire microwave oven (over the range) for 20 months. It doesn't work anymore. Their warranty is one year only, so their product can last just over one year. I contacted their customer service and was refused for repair or replace. I am going to totally dump this junk and never buy any Frigidaire products. I just want to share my experience with whoever is looking for appliance.

This is an update on my smooth top range catching fire. Frigidaire said that they would only pay for parts since it was six months out of warranty. I believe that trying to use the broiler for the first time started the electrical short that would have burnt my home to the ground had I not returned five minutes after leaving because I forgot something. I have filed a complaint with government product safety commission. Two months later, I finally got the report to sign and send back.

While cooking a pot of soup on a very low simmer and standing next to the stove, I noticed that the soup came up to a very rapid boil. I turned the element off, but the boil continued. I removed the pot from the element to find the smaller of the 2 sized on high and would not go off. I ended up turning the breaker off and began looking online for a common problem/solution and ran across the following site **. Before finding this site, listed are several Frigidaire and Kenmore stoves that have been recalled for the same issue as myself and several others, as I have been reading. But when you go to the Frigidaire site to see if you are in the recall, it says you are not. I have had issues with their refrigerators in the past, but this now confirms that I will never own another piece of their ** again.

My Frigidaire electric range ES300 (Model: FEFL67GMA Serial #: VF72947517) that I purchased in October 2009 almost put my home on fire. We had set the timed cooking, as before, to go swimming and have the dinner ready when we return. Thank God I had forgotten my towel because when I came back, I found my home filled with a thick, black smoke coming from the back of the stove. I held my breath and ran through the thick cloud of smoke and hit the clear button which, thank God, shut it down.

I had purchased oven PLCS389DCB on 4/1/11 and after two used the glass cook top broke while boiling water. I contacted Frigidaire and they told me all they can do is charge me $300.00 not including installation, or shipping and send me a glass cook top. I have since tried to contact more people at Frigidaire and will either get put on hold one time for more than 70 mins or transfered to there HR department.

We have a Frigidaire Oven Model #FGB24T3ES. We rarely use it maybe once a month for 30 minutes if that. The hinges went out. After a quick search on the internet we found that it was very common. Of course our warranty is out like many others so the fix is around $150 per hinge. Very poorly made hinges very thin metal design.

I do not have a complaint about the store. It is the Frigidaire stove that I bought there on July 22, 2006. The model number is PLEF398DCD. We are only a family of two so the stove has not been overused. Now the oven does not work, so of course, we called a repair person from Lyle's to fix it. After the repair guy was here they called and told me that it would cost $420 to fix it.

We have a Frigidaire gas range stove that we bought brand-new 13 months ago (along with a Frigidaire dishwasher and microwave range). We eat out a lot, so it's been used maybe 25 times.

We purchased a complete set of Frigidaire appliances (stove, fridge, washer and dryer) for our home four years ago. Within the last month we had major problems with every one of them. Surprisingly, they are all now past the warranty period. Our stove will not heat up past 350 degrees without cutting out. I have replaced the elements and it still will not function properly. Our fridge malfunctioned; it has leaked all over our flooring, which now is ruined in that area. Last week our front load washer stopped working, and the sensor in the door had to be replaced. Today, as if I wasn't already frustrated enough, I turned on our dryer and heard a loud bang followed by lots of smoke and a loud grinding noise, as it slowed to a complete stop. My home has an in-law suite downstairs, which we furnished only several weeks later than our main floor. Purchasing GE appliances has not cause a single problem with them so far.

Lemon times two! And unfortunately, every review I can find on this product (gas wall oven) has had the same result of irreparable door hinges after a year or so. My elderly mother purchased a Frigidaire gas wall oven in 2006. 3 years later (and two repairmen for over $200), the hinges on the oven door were completely broken. No repairman could fix it (stripped screws, insulation coming out, unable to either open or close any more). So she spent $724 on an identical oven (unfortunately, it is the only one I can fit in her wall cutouts, otherwise I would not have replaced with the same oven).

We have 115 townhome units. Each unit has the same Frigidaire Electric Stove FEF312BSC. These units are less than 5 years old and within the last month, I have had 8 heating elements in the oven catch fire and go out. They get hot and swell and they spark and burn holes thru the metal or catch fire inside the oven. Something needs to be done about this because we are having to pay to replace all of these elements, and I have other properties that have the same type of range for 30 years and nothing like this has ever happened.

I continued to live with an oven that fluctuated in temps and burners that would go on at high temps by themselves but when I contacted anyone regarding this issue, they acted like I was nuts. 2 weeks ago, I got a recall notice on my glass-top slide in range due to a fire hazard as it can turn on the burners by itself and go to high temps automatically.

I purchased a Fridgidaire Gas Range (convection oven) in March 2009. By October 2010, the entire control panel just dies, making the oven, timer and everything but the burners not usable. When I contacted them, since I didn't have the warranty, they said they would cover parts but it was my problem to cover the cost to have somebody come in and look at it. That is a starting cost of $100.00 up front with no guarantee that this will keep further problems happening. What happened to the good products that they use to make?

This was ordered and we finally received one that was not damaged on the third try. The problem I have is that they did not include user guide and Lowes was unable to help me. When I called the number provided to contact Frigidaire, I was told that they could not find the model number for my stove and oven.

I bought a Frigidaire stove in July 2005. Suddenly one day the oven does not work, the burners slowly go out one by one. I am now down with one big burner that takes forever to heat up. When you buy an appliance, you expect it to last more than 5 years especially something as a major purchase as a stove, refrigerator, dishwasher, washer, and dryer. On the advice of many family members and friends, I bought this Frigidaire stove/oven. I am disabled, on a fixed income, raising my almost 2-year old granddaughter. What am I supposed to do now? I can't bake, and I can't afford to go and buy a new stove let alone fix this one because it will be $184.00 to fix it. I don''t know what to do, or whom to turn to at this point.

I heard about the recall of the Frigidaire ranges today and called to give them the details on what was happening on my range. They told me my model was not in the list of recalled models so they could only refer me to a repairman - at my expense. I explained that I've had the eye stay on high even when I turn it off and that I have to fiddle with it to get it to turn off but they still would not help. I wanted to speak to a supervisor but they would not let me.

October 10, 2010 I found your address on a consumer affairs website. This post will be long as I want to accurately describe the situation. In August, less than 3 months ago, our old Tappan kitchen stove needed several parts and we were told it would take a long time to obtain them, and were otherwise discouraged from repairing. We were expecting houseguests and needed a working stove. So we decided to purchase a new Frigidaire range. Model no: FPGF3081KFB, serial no: VF93549735.

My Frigidaire Smoothtop Electric Ranges has the same behavior as the one that has been recalled recently. One of the range's temperature just turn on high temperature all the time that I cannot even adjust it to a lower temperature setting, which has burned food and created fire hazard. However, my unit is not under the model listed for recall services. My unit model is: FEFB78DSB, and serial number is: VF50561211. I've called Frigidaire and has been told that I have to pay the service out of my own pocket since my model is not in the recall list!? Why did Frigidaire not add all affected models in the recall list in the first place?

We purchased a Frigidaire Range Model number FGS3065KF from an online retailer. It arrived in fine time. We installed it, and just 3 weeks after getting it installed, I used the highest output BTU burner (front right) to can with. Although the pot I use is large, it's not overly large. However, the heat from the flame started melting the front faceplate of the stove. If I'd been away from the stove or not paying attention, it could have potentially caught on fire. When I called to ask for warranty (since my brand new stove is now melted on the front and I thought they should know about this potential safety hazard), I was told that yes, they have heard of this happening, but no, they won't do anything about it. Sorry, it's just considered "wear and tear" and that they weren't that concerned about fire.

I bought a condo that came with the stainless steel range/microwave in 2008, all brand new appliances. Fast forward 2 years later, the microwave started on fire while my wife and I were sleeping. The damage was pretty severe as my kitchen and bathroom has been destroyed. Never buy anything from Frigidaire as their products are a pile of **.

I purchased the double oven in April 2010. Since it has been installed we have had four visits from Mr. Appliance in Winchester MA. We have never been able to use the oven. It simply will not heat. Today we have had the oven on for six hours and it still has not reached 350 degrees. Please help us get the reimbursement we deserve or a new oven. I have repeatedly called fridge air and they say I have to have it repaired and when they are satisfied nothing more can be done maybe I get an oven replacement. This double oven cost $2000.00 which we paid in full. I am being taken by Fridge air and Sozio Appliance says they can’t do anything unless fridge air gives them the ok. Each time the appliance repair people come they do something only to have it go back to not working again almost as soon as they leave.

I purchased an electric smooth top Frigidaire stove model FEFL79DBK around late 2006. Four years later, the burner went to high on its own, and then would not turn off. I had to cut power to it via the circuit breaker. I contacted the company, but we have to pay to have someone come out and look at it. This model was not part of the big Frigidaire stove recall, and yet it is exhibiting the same problems. I've filed a report with the CPSC. If you have a non-recalled stove that is having these sorts of problems, please file a report at cpsc.gov, and maybe they will determine that a recall is needed.

I preheated my oven to 350 degrees to bake a cake. In 19 minutes the cake was burned to a crisp. The oven extremely hot. I tried to turn the oven off but it would not turn off. It was very difficult to pull the stove out of the space it was in. I had to pull the plug to shut the oven off. Stove repair will cost $280. I have to buy a new stove. This is not on the recall list but should be! This is a smooth top convection oven, Frigidaire stove serial #VF23417069.

I have had my electric range approximately 7 years. In the last 4 months, we have encountered the same problem for 4 times as of tonight. The range indicate F9 which the manual indicates that it is a motor door lock fault. The repairman has replaced the motor board three times, not to say the inconvenience of preparing meals. We also were told to replace the brake to the range less than a week ago (July 22) and, low behold, the same problem has occurred again on July 31.

I purchased a 30” built-in range Model no. FGES3065KF. The stove does not go back to the wall and it's larger than 30" with its end trim. It needs to have its granite redone. The range dose not include a trim kit and a cleaner for the range top. There's also no broiler tray. I spent $1500 for this store, your reputation have been thoroughly upset, added expenses that should not be. I expect to hear from your rep. to change this situation by July 27th.

I have a 2006 glass-top Gallery series Fridigaire stove. I went to bake, turned the oven on and the panel in the back of the stove caught on fire, it was in flames. I grabbed the handle, pulled the stove from the wall, then ran, turned the electric off and beat the fire out. The stove's circuits are fried and the stove has been on recall. They want to fix this stove and put it back in my house. I think they need to replace it completely. It was purchased at Lowe's. My house could have burnt down. What can I do about this? Thanks.

We purchased a Frigidaire Smooth Top range and was happy with it until recently. The left front burner will not shut off unless we turn the power off. The model number is not one listed on the recall so they will not replace even though it’s doing the same thing. This could have burned our house down if we had not come home early that day. I am afraid to leave my house and when I do, I’m afraid to leave my bulldog there, worried that the range will burn the house down.

In August 2007, we bought our Ceramic Top Frigidaire stove from Lowes. Model number: FEFL796SA Serial number: VF72829513. Shortly afterward, I had the left front eye on low heat and had left the kitchen. My husband found the eye on the highest heat and the pot dry and smoking. The dial was still set to low. We had to turn the knob backwards several times to get the eye to turn off. This has happened several times. We are careful not to leave the kitchen when using this eye. A friend of ours told us about a recall on the flat top stoves. This led me to call Frigidaire.

Purchased brand new appliances from local Frigidaire dealer and within three months the control module on the professional series range went out in it. Electrolux replaced because it was still under warranty. Now it is doing the same thing and I am sure it will cost hundreds to replace. I have not had good luck with the range or the side-by-side refrigerator. I am very unhappy with their appliances and judging by the number of similar complaints, they should recall their ranges.

The brand new electronic range we bought 6 months ago had defective circuit board. They sent us the Mr. Appliance, the sub-contract company. After the repair, Mr. Appliance charged us $79.95. The range is still under warranty. We asked the reason, but they never explained it and told us they will send the bill to the collection agency if we did not pay the bill. We paid unnecessary repairing fee of $79.95 and was threatened by them for reporting to the collection agency.

We have a Frigidaire Glass Top Oven/Convection oven that is five years old. We also purchased matching stainless steel appliances at the same time to the tune of thousands of dollars. This week we were using the stove when sparks and flames shot out of the back, and then the stove and all controls shut down. We were shocked by this and immediately turned off the circuit breaker that controls the stove. A serviceman from an independent company came and diagnosed the problem as a burned out clock unit. He indicated that this was not the first time he has seen the same problem with this stove.

Stove range model # FGFL79DBE; purchased from Lowe's in December 2005. Used the broiler for the very first time on May 9, 2010 and the stove caught on fire. Insulation and/or wiring began burning inside of the stove. As the house filled up with black smoke, I disconnected the gas line and removed the stove to my outside patio as it continued burning. There was smoke damage to my ceiling, walls, and to the exhaust fan above the stove. I called Lowe's; they referred me to "Frigidaire". Frigidaire customer service employee "Ryan" (Philippines) stated, "They would replace the stove if it was determined unsafe," and gave me telephone numbers to service techs but took down none of my information. Service tech came out confirmed stove had been on fire (burning). He did not dismantle the stove to find out the definite cause of the fire because he felt the bottom line was that the stove was unsafe and to be replaced, advising me "under no circumstances was I to place that stove back inside of my house and to leave it outside and covered under the heavy plastic sheathing" since it had continued smoldering.

I complained to Frigidaire that there was a design flaw in their slide-in range. The space between the front two window panels becomes dirty/greasy quite quickly. The only way to clean the front window is to hire a technician at $61 to remove the door and clean it which I did. I complained to the office of Frigidaire and eventually was told by the escalation manager that the product has been around for 80 years and that the stove does leak residue in between the glass panels but that it is my responsibility to either call a technician to have it cleaned or clean it myself.

First and foremost, if there are these many consumer complaints regarding Frigidaire ranges with fire and safety hazards then why haven't these products been removed from the retail world and consumer's homes? After reading a good majority of the complaints with Consumer Affairs, I'm surprised that a total recall of the products have not taken place. We purchased a Frigidaire Smoothtop Range in 2004, (model #FEFL63DSA). Like others have repeatedly complained about this range is a problem. The right front large burner from day one has had proper heating issues. This being our first experience with a Smoothtop, we lived with it. Next is the oven heat and ventilation from the oven which will burn you when the oven door is closed.

On April 27, 2010, I had an unplanned stop at home around 9:00 am. I was only home 10 minutes when I heard this loud snapping, zapping and crackling sound from my kitchen. When I ran into the kitchen, there were flames shooting out of the back of the electric stove 8-9 inches up the back splash. I quickly grabbed the stove door and pulled the stove into the middle of the room. I then quickly unplugged it. The flames started to subside. I then ran to the garage and used a dolly and got it out of my house and used a fire extinguisher to put the rest of the fire out. Needless to say, the house was full of smoke, and I was shaking, thinking if I had not been home, my entire house would be gone along with the family pets.

I purchased a Frigidaire FEFL79FCB smooth top range which has the same problems as other Frigidaire models that were recalled. My model has the exact same symptoms and hazards as the other models recalled. It turns on spontaneously without being switched on. It fails to turn off after being switched off. And it heats to different temperatures than selected. This poses a fire and burn hazard to consumers. When I contacted Frigidaire I was told that this model is not included in this recall and no assistance is provided to fix it (except to offer to charge us $250 to come out to fix it).

I purchased refrigerator and stove from ABC warehouse in Southfield Mi. along with 1 yr. warranty in 2007. Warranty ran out in 2009 and I could not afford to purchase extended warranty. Meanwhile, I noticed everything I put close to the back of the top of stove where clock and temp gauge are located, it would get extremely hot. One day, I inspected more closely to see where was heat coming from and noticed that there is a separation in the backboard and flat stove area clearly something that is not suppose to happen . Every time I use the oven, I have to move everything from on top of my stove in the back area.

I purchased a Frigidaire range from Sears on 11/12/07, Model number PGLEF385CS1 Serial number Nf30816571. Around the middle of Nov. of 2008, our range start beeping F1 error. We called a repairman and said he wasn't sure what the problem was. He suggested that we change the clock timer, which he felt we could do for it was easy to do. We did this but it still came up F1 error. He suggested that it might be the keypad or the oven probe nothing worked. By this time, we also had our oven lock and were usable to unlock it.

I have a Frigidaire electric range that is 5 years old. All elements and with the oven off, there was a big pop at 11:30 pm and a flash of light. The oven door locked and it began flashing F1 Error. We unplugged it and plugged it back into the wall. The same thing happened. We priced the parts - approximately $210 for the little computer boards. I'm looking for an estate sale to find a product without a computer. I think most car owners are feeling the same way. Why did we think computers were reliable when our desktop crashes every little bit?

I bought a new electric range in November of '09. I cooked something with sauce and it splashed in between the glass. An appliance person came and repaired it. I cleaned the outside glass and again, it went in between the outer glass and inner glass of the oven. I have no way of cleaning this. I have a brand new stove with a twelve inch streak. Poor design of the door. The vents, which you can not see behind the oven door handle, allows for anything to fall between the door. This could include food, dust, spillage, anything. The recommendation from the company is to clean it better! How does one do that without taking the door apart? The place where I purchased it won't help, Frigidaire won't help. No one will stand behind their product.

I turned the stove off and it didn't go off. Instead, the element got hotter. This resulted in my smoke alarm going off when the pot on the stove started burning because the stove did not go off after I had turned it off and walked out of the kitchen. If it had not been for my smoke alarm, there could have been a major fire in my kitchen. The pot was destroyed. I contacted Best Buy about the product and I'm not getting the satisfaction I deserve. By the way, I purchased this stove and a dishwasher in May 2009. I also took out the extra warranty offered by Best Buy. I was checking this site and read about the recall. No one has contacted me about my stove. If they had contacted me, maybe this wouldn't have happened to me.

We purchased a Frigidaire stove (model #PLEF398CCD, serial number VF42114376). Last year, the stove started flashing F7 beep and the burners would not turn on. We called for service (Glades Gas Co.), and their repairman did not know how to fix it and said he will search and come back to fix it. We were charged $85.00 for him to looked at the stove even though he was not able to fix.

My Frigidaire electric range ES510 control self-cleaning oven with ceramic cook top is defective. There are stains inside the glass door which we cannot remove. We also cannot remove the door cover to clean the stains. The stainless steel finish is also streaked with absence of color.

I bought a house and had older appliances in the kitchen, except for a new stove/oven. Nothing but problems from this newer unit. All the problems listed on site, i.e., burners not turning off, oven getting extremely hot and locking, finally control panel shorting out due to electrical fire (blessing in disguise).

I have the smooth top convention oven and my husband was cooking on it and when done, he moved the pot over to the front left side of the stove and he saw this very bright red flame from the burner, a bubble and next thing he hear was this pop and the glass top busted. We have no idea what happen to it. All I know is that now, I have to buy another stove. I think that the company need to do a recall on these stoves and refund our money. I always have a problem with the front right burner with keeping it clean. Maybe this had something to do with it.

I purchased a smooth top stove in May of 2008. I can't use either of the front burners because no matter what temperature they are set to, they go straight to "high". I have contacted the company and they have more than 20 of these models on recall. My model # is not yet on the recall list, so they will do nothing for me. I saved for an entire year to buy this stove, and now since it is not under warranty, I have to pay another $300 to have it repaired.

I am writing this based on the Frigidaire recalls. I have a glass top stove only (on counter, no oven). It is Number FEC30S6ABF. This was not among the recalled numbers; however, I am having the same problem: knob turns to off position sometimes and heat element continues to heat up.

I have the same problem as the recall on Frigidaire stoves. I have the model with the ceramic surface. The temperature of the burners go down too fast; if the water is boiling, as soon as I turn it down a bit, it stops boiling. Is there something you can do for us. Thank you.

My continuous cleaning propane stove is 4 years old and out of warranty. We had been out of town for a week. When I got home, I set the oven to 400, placed food in to be baked and went into the other room knowing that it would take 45 minutes to an hour for the food to be done. Within 30 minutes or so, I began smelling something burning and went to check. The heat around the oven told me something was wrong so I turned it off and removed the food, which was black. My husband put a thermometer in the oven and set it on 400 again. It pinned the thermometer at 500 within minutes. We called our gas company and a serviceman came the next day, but couldn't get any info from Frigidaire because they are not authorized dealers.

The 30-in electric range (Model: FEF366ASE) was purchased last March 2003. The plastic oven handle broke off completely in my wife's hand (March 2009) while she was baking. After talking with the Parts Department, since the warranty expired, we purchased a new oven handle for $150 which did not have the proper hardware to secure it to the oven door. So, since the metal screw has stripped out the plastic handle, my wife has to use oven mits to open the oven door to keep from burning herself. I am trying to find a glue or a longer screw to secure the handle until we can afford to buy another brand electric range. We will never purchase another Frigidaire product (they are not built to last longer than the warranty).

We have a Frigidaire Professional Series electric range (model PleFMA99ECF) purchased in April 2005 or 2006. A couple of years ago, we had an incident of the left rear burner not turning off when knob was turned off. I had a repair done, but I don't remember the details. A couple of weeks ago, same thing happened with the same burner. I had to pull the oven out and unplug both times to get burner to turn off. This time, I noticed it just before I was heading to bed. It's very dangerous. I need to follow up with Frigidaire.

I bought a Frigidaire double oven in March 2007, and the hinges melted and the door eventually fell off by September 2008. Sears, where I had bought the oven, replaced it with the same model. And by May 2009, the same problem happened. Now Sears says they will not replace the 2nd oven. It seems like this should be a recall, because obviously, this a defect with this oven. I saw that other people have had the same problem.

I bought a Frigidaire electric range model ES340 in 5/07 and have had multiple instances in which the top burners have stopped vacillating and stayed on, causing the stove to get enormously hot. The only way I can turn it off is by hitting the fuse box off. The company came in 5/08 and "repaired" it, but it is happening again in 7/09.

We purchased our electric Frigidaire Professional Series ceramic top range in 2006, after repairs were done on our home due to Hurricane Katrina. The broil would not work at all from the beginning. In less than 9 months, 03/07, the complete oven (bake, broil, convection, clock and all) went out. It was under warranty and was repaired. I was skeptical about this product so when I was offered an extended warranty, I purchased it. Thank goodness I did. Then again in 2008, same identical problem. Oven, bake, broil, convection and clock would not work. Once again, the service technician came out and repaired it. My extended warranty ran out in March 2009 and I could not afford to pay $93.

We too bought the Frigidaire gas wall oven and the same thing happened after one year. The hinges pulled right out of the oven. Now we are out an oven, out $800.00 and will never buy a Frigidaire product again. This company needs to stop selling this product. It is obviously defective.

Beware of Frigidaire ranges! We also purchased a ceramic cooktop range in 2003 and have had our burners turn on spontaneously, without the knob being turned on. This has happened not once, not twice, but three separate times. The first time, the stove was still under warranty. We thought "Oh well, they took care of it and now we're safe." So wrong! About two years later, the exact same thing occurred. After much complaining with the customer service rep in the Philippines (yeah, other than knowingly marketing defective products, they're giving away our jobs), they agreed to repair our stove again free of charge (2nd replacement of the main board).

I have a 10/2003 Frigidaire stove model #FEF455BBB that was made in Canada for the above company. It is an electric range/double oven with a electric griddle. The burners will randomly turn from low to high heat without any cause or forewarning. I have had a teapot simmering on low and walked into another room only to come back and find it on high, with the room full of steam and the pot totally empty. It has also happened while cooking food and causing burning of the food which could have caused a fire at any moment. One night, I had a pot of water simmering because I was ill and wanted tea. I fell asleep and awoke to the smell of something extremely hot. The burner had switched from low to high and had evaporated at least a quart of water and the teapot was blazing hot and smoking. I am terrified that this stove will cause a house fire.

In the middle of the night, while walking through the kitchen, my wife noticed the "HE" indicator on the left rear element. She approached the range and noticed that there was in fact heat coming off the element. She then confirmed that the knob was in the off position, turned it to low, high then off again. Within seconds of being returned to the "OFF" position, the element went to full heat followed by a loud "POP" at which point it died.

The top back burner came on by itself. Luckily, we were in the kitchen and at home when this happened. The cabinets above the stove were very hot to touch before we could get the circuit pulled to shut off stove. This is very scary stuff. We were actually getting ready to leave our home shortly, leaving our two pets in a closed house unable to get out. This item was purchased at Lowe's in 11/2007. In the first week, we had the appliance replaced through Frigidaire because the oven got too hot and completely melted foil put down for a frozen pizza. It looked like abstract art on bottom of stove, smelled horrible too.

I am apparently one more victim of this fire hazard. I cannot believe there has not been a recall for these stoves. Like the others, my stove turned itself on while my daughter was upstairs giving her two month old baby a bath. There was a pizza box on the stove at the time that caught fire. Fortunately, her boyfriend came down stairs and saw the flames and put out the fire that was reaching up to my cabinets. If no one had been at home, my house would be gone. This is an outrage that I have to pay to fix something that is definitely defective and should be replaced by the company.

I purchased a ceramic cooktop Frigidaire stove/oven and after only 1 1/2 years, the digital control oven panel stopped working. The factory warranty was only for 1 year and Frigidaire refused to investigate whether or not there was a defect with the parts in the control panel. I was told that I was totally responsible for repairs. I have purchased other brand appliances in the past and never had any problems after only 1 1/2 years of purchase.

I own a Frigidaire Gallery electric glass top stove. While fixing supper one evening, I noticed that the right front burner on the stove top had come on and was a potential fire hazard. It would not shut off and my husband had to turn it off at the breaker. It’s a very dangerous situation for anyone who has this stove. It is a 2003 model. Frigidaire will not do anything to remedy this issue and I have filed a liability claim against them. I don't know if it will do any good, but I am trying. What if this happened and we were not home?

Regarding Frigidaire flat top stove bought in October 2007, model GLEFZ379FCC. Off and on "burning plastic" smell that initial product instructions said to disregard as it was "natural". The product suddenly stopped working on June 2009. Upon inspection by the technician, the wiring at terminal block was black and melted and could/should have started a fire. The technician replaced the terminal block and cord at my expense. I thought it might have been a freak defect, but now I see online that there have been numerous complaints about the wiring on other Frigidaire stove models. Sounds like a pervasive problem with the company's products and I highly recommend staying away from them. Frigidaire and Electrolux, who owns it, are two old trusted names I will never trust again.

I haven't dealt with anyone at Frigidaire as of yet. After reviewing the numerous complaints here online, I can see that they do not stand by their products and not much will be done to resolve this matter. My problem is that I purchased a Frigidaire stove in 2005 at the Lowe's in Roosevelt LI. In 2006, I started having problems getting the high ignition pilot to light on this stove. I did not call in a repairman as I did not think this was a major problem. I just would use a lighter wand to ignite that pilot. In June 2009, after completing roasting a chicken in the oven, I turned off the stove but the wires on the top portion of the stove started smoking. The fire dept had to be called, then the gas company. They declared the stove an extreme hazard and shut the system down. I called in a repairman to determine what had happened. He indicated that the wires had shorted out and to repair it would cost $700 and take 2 to 3 business days! I've had this stove for only four years and now it is done. I paid $700 for it so I'm not going to spend another $700 for repairs. I could not trust repairs to the wires. So now, I am out of a stove and my money. I will never purchase another Frigidaire or Electrolux product again. And I will warn others of these products.

I purchased my Frigidaire Electrolux gallery series stove in 2003. Also, I purchased the extended warranty that expired 6 months ago. I was baking cookies two days ago when I heard a loud popping noise. The cookies still had a few minutes left on the timer. Yesterday, I was baking cinnamon rolls and this time, the loud bang from my stove blew the breaker and the stove read F1 error. I could smell something like a burnt match in the room directly below my stove. Pretty scary!

I am writing to let people know that I purchased a Frigidaire range in November of 2006. One of my burners will not shut off even when it is turned to the off position. I have had it turn on by itself and it stays on full blast. Sometimes, the only way to get it to go off is to turn the breaker off. This is a serious fire hazard. I have tried to contact someone about this and to no avail. I am at my wits' end. If this is happening to you, please send in your complaint. I am terrified that someone is going to get seriously injured or worse with this malfunction. Please don't wait until there are consequences. I am telling anyone who will listen that this is very serious. I hope someone will do something about this. Far too many of these companies out there wait until someone is killed before they take action.

We bought a new slide-in electric range 4 years ago, Feb. 2005. The model number is FES367ASG. In February of this year, the stove started giving us an error of F1 and beeping at temperatures over 375 degrees. We finally felt the need to call a repair company to fix the stove because the error code came on at all temperatures. The repair person had to replace the electronic control board.

The stove was about 10 years old. Perhaps that is the expected life of the product. However, it went out by catching itself on fire. My husband smelled smoke and pulled the stove away from the wall before it caught anything else on fire. It had the potential to cause extensive damage to the house. After examining the stove, it was determined that the small wires at the lower back center of the stove caught fire. Had that happened to someone elderly or who could not pull the stove away from the wall to extinguish the fire, it would have been a tragedy. We replaced the unit with a different brand.

This white 5 burner top of the line Frigidaire gas range has a badly discolored oven door top and control panel following only two uses of the self cleaning cycle. Frigidaire says this is not covered and refuses to accept any responsibility. They would only suggest using Magic Eraser which did nothing to remove the yellow discoloration.

We are having the same problem. A lot of meals were wasted. Brand new stove that works fine but the oven doesn't work. It takes about 8 hours to warm up. Then your meals are burned.

I just built a new home this year (2008). We bought all new appliances. All of them are Frigidaire except my fridge. That is a Maytag. My Stove was a Frigidaire Professional Series PLES399EC 30'' Slide-In Electric Range with 4 Radiant Element & EvenCook3 Convection System: Stainless Steel. One month after the appliances were installed I smelled plastic burning. I looked at my stove and there was white smoke coming out of the front and black smoke out the back. My husband opened the oven and flames shot out. He pulled the stove out from the counter and unplugged it which stopped the fire. The convection cooling fan in the back of the oven burned. The stove was never used that day. The fan must have shorted out. If we weren't home that day our new house would have burned down. I am lucky enough to have a great appliance guy who took the stove and is ordering me a new one. I am not sure if I want the same one. What if this happens again.

In December 2005 I purchased a new glass top convection range (GLEF379DC) and the oven temperature was all over the place. I'd set it at 375 and it would heat to 450, then down to 300, etc. (far worse if convection was on) and also noticed similar inconsistent temps on the stove top. Horrible burning smell when put on cleaning cycle, we would have to leave the house, we all got headaches - and when cleaning cycle is on it gets so hot you cannot touch the unit anywhere.

I started to make lunch preheating the oven to 375. The oven beeped signaling that it had heated to the desired temperature. I placed the food into the oven and set the timer for 12 minutes. After about 4 minutes, I could smell food burning, and I opened the oven door to realize the food was starting to burn. There was 8 minutes left on the timer and I have prepared this meal many, many times before. I turned off the oven, but the heating element stayed on. I went to turn off the circuit breaker when the F1 started flashing on the oven display.

The range I purchased Feb 16 2007 Product FGF 366EQ BECOMES DEFECTIVE AFTER ABOUT ONE YEAR. The high gloss coating on the buner caps and burner grates disintegrate from the heat of the burner.

Conusmer beware. Frigidare and customer service don't match. We bought a frigidare slide in stove 1/14/08. To date we have had it work about 5 times. The service company has tried 3 times to no avail. (6 times worked missed) They will not replace nor give our money back. The store in which we purchased the appliance won't help either. (Appliance Factory Outlet in Denver) It is hopeless as they will not budge. We cannot afford a new stove so this one is like decoration in our kitchen.

We purcheased a Frigidaire/Electrolux self cleaning ceran top slide in range - CGES387CB1 in Oct 2003 from Sears. We also purchased the extended warranty from Sears which would expire 07-05-2009.

I can't get the marks off the right front large burner of my new glass top stove. I e-mailed, called and all I got was a form letter telling me to clean it. Believe me it is clean. It is very embarressing!

The grates on my brand new range began leaving rust on the cooktop.

Hello: I purchased a Condo with appliances included a year ago. There was specifically a Frigidaire stove (parent Company is Electrolux)included in this purchase.

I have an electric stove model#FEFL89CCA SER#VF34537362 that has had to be repaired twice over the past 5 years. My oven does not heat. When purchased from Lowe's was told all should work well for at least 10 years have had to have elements, and control panel replaced.

Yesterday my brother/roommate was cooking on my Frigidaire Gallery Series stove, and he made a big mess with some vegetable oil. Today after he was done cooking something in the oven, he forgot to turn off the oven for about 20-30 minutes I turned it off, and I noticed a smell. About 15 minutes later the smell had gotten worse, and I asked him to come check it out because I could not figure out where the smell was coming from. After a few minutes of playing we find that the smell he noticed was the stove smoking. We took off the top of the stove, and there was some kind of insulation wrapped around the outside shell of the stove which was right under the ranges. What we think had happened was some of the oil spilled onto the insulation, and this plus the heat of the stove made the insulation begin to smolder.

I have a frigidaire flat top stove MD#FEF376AQG S#VF24529703, it has been nothing but a hassle since it was bought in 2004. The first time I used the self cleaning oven everything was fine, the next time I tried to use it, it would not work and caused a error sign on the computer screen and the whole stove would not work. We had to unplug the stove in order for it to reset itself. I didn't think that it was necessary to pay a couple hundred dollars to get this fixed and have been cleaning my stove myself since.

I have a Fridgidaire ceramic cooktop stove with the speed cook fan built in. This stove has a vent that lets steam out when cooking at high temps and leaves a bad stain on the front of the stove. It started to eat the paint away; the color of the stove is cream, so it is very noticeable. I spoke with Fridgidaire, and they told me to purchase some paint for the stove. There is nothing they or I can do to prevent this from happening. I am very unhappy with this oven.

My Frigidaire Gallery oven range was half way through the cleaning cycle when the middle layer of glass on the oven door exploded. It shattered into tiny pieces and dropped out all over the floor.

I purchase a wall oven Frigidaire model FGB24T3, and the oven is horrible. When it was installed I noticed that the interior space was much smaller than the old oven and when you turn on the broiler the gas turns off intermittenly. So if you need to broil something it doesn't work well and also the timer chime does not work. I called for sevice immedialy and the 2 gentlemen that came said that the broiler was normal and they would check with the manufacturer to check on the timer. They never got an answer. The oven also emits moisture to the control panel and has left moisture stains. When I do use the oven the control panel gets very hot to the point that if I have to adjust the tempurature, I have to use a potholder due to the fact they are way too hot. Thank goodness I have a great convection toaster oven to use on a daily basis because I know the control panel is going to melt if I use this oven regularly.

I was baking my fruit cake 12-2-07 in my Frigidaire Electric Range (ES200/300 Controls, Self Cleaning Oven with Ceramic Cooktop Model Number FEF363BXAWB) and had the oven on 275 degrees. I went outside and then when I came back in I smelled a hot burnt smell. I immediately went to the kitchen and checked the oven. The timer had 4 min. left on it. I opened the door, a blast of heat came out, and the fruit cakes were burned. I hit the button to turn off the oven, and it did not go off. I went immediately to the breaker box and tripped the oven switch. I could feel the heat as I opened the oven so after turning it off and emptying it, I put in an oven thermometer and it was 450 degrees. I called the 800 944-9044 and then 706 866-4110 and spoke to Roxy. She gave me a number to have it fixed, and I said I was concerned about the fact if I had not come in at the time I did, I may have had a fire in my house.

I have a Frigidaire stove that the burner would not turn off. I had to shut it off at the breaker. It was fixed, and about 6 months later a burner came on by itself (high heat) and would not turn off. I was in another room, so I don't know how long the burner was on. Again I had to turn it off at the breaker. Frigidaire is aware that this range will do this and has a repair pack for it. They are not contacting owners, or parts and repair departments that burners can come on by themselves. Frigidaire is not being proactive; they are waiting until the ranges malfunction. This is a very dangerous situation!

Paid $1200.00 for a defective product which is not good for my new kitchen.

10-01-07 I turned the aforementioned range on to 325 degrees and placed a 2.9# rolled rump roast and 2 large potatoes in the oven to bake. I then went to the basement to do some tasks. Forty minutes later I heard an alarm going off upstairs and went to investigate. The roast was nothing but a piece of charcoal and the digital readout on the oven said F1. When I opened the door the heat burnt my eyes and I proceeded to give 2 potholders to my husband to remove the pan with the roast from the oven and take to the attached garage where it could continue to smolder. When he picked up the pan with the roast it was so hot that it burnt holes in the potholders.

Cost of just under 200.00 for repair.

We purchased a Frigidaire dishwasher and convection range on 08/23/2006. After only 6 mos. the dishwasher quit. The electronics system had to be replaced. That took 2 weeks to get resolved. Now for the BIGGIE

Had our first home custom built in late 06 and moved in Jan.07, Purchased all new appliances from Lowe's. Stove, microwave and side-by-side refrigerator made by Frigidaire. Within 4 months, fridge quit, filter/dryer in freon circuit plugged up; microwave threw the fan blade; and the final straw, upon it's first self-cleaning the internal glass on the oven exploded 1 hour in the process.

Lost all possessions, including our home; living with in-laws while our home is being rebuilt; we have suffered considerably from the emotional trauma down to the fact that we literally had only the clothes on our backs. Now we have only memories because we lost all of the keepsakes from our children, our parents who are no longer living, etc.

We purchased a frigidare electric range 5 years ago. The first Electric oven controller died (F1 error) last year (while still under an extended warranty...lucky). It was replaced, however, 2 months later the 2nd EOC died. That was replaced (out of warranty), and now, 8 months later, the 3rd EOC has died. At just under $200 each, we've decided to STOP wasting money on this range, and buy one of the 'old-fashined' ranges without Digital controls that seem to burn out all the time.

We recently just purchased our first home, with it came all the appliances in the kitchen which were all brand new at the time. just a month into our new home we have witnessed that our frigidaire stove is a safety hazard. when we cook on the stove top the pots and pans slip around, i have to hold the pots with one hand while cooking with the other, all while my two toddlers are running about me.
