Massive Frigidaire oven recall
Electrolux recalled over 174,000 Frigidaire gas ranges sold at Home Depot, Lowe’s and other retailers after delayed ignition in the bake burner caused at least 30 burn injuries — owners are told to stop using affected ovens and contact Electrolux for free inspection and repair. This is a high‑risk consumer safety recall that will generate lots of in‑store questions about repairs, replacements, and timelines. (foxbusiness.com)
