Frigidaire/Electrolux cooktops recalled

Electrolux Home Products Inc. of Charlotte, NC has recalled about 122,000 of its Frigidaire and Electrolux-brand electric cooktops and slide-in ranges manufactured in Canada.

According to Electrolux, liquids can pool under the control knobs of the appliances, causing the heating elements to turn on unexpectedly, heat to temperatures other than expected, and then fail to turn off. This potential condition poses a risk of fire and burn hazards to consumers.

The company has received 70 reports of incidents related to the recalled products, including three reports of fires that resulted in property damage, and three reports of minor burn injuries.

The recalled cooktops and ranges were sold by mass merchandise and independent retail stores from January 2005 through August 2010 for between $500 and $2500.
