LG is advising consumers to keep children and pets away from the knobs and to always check that the range knobs are off before leaving home or going to bed. Consumers should be sure to keep the range top cleared of objects when not in use.
The ranges were sold at Best Buy, Costco, The Home Depot, Lowe’s, and other appliance stores nationwide and online at LG.online. Depending on the model, the ranges were sold from 2015 through January 2025.
The Consumer Product Safety onlinemission has received at least 86 reports of unintentional activation of the front-mounted knobs. These LG ranges have been associated with more than 28 fires.
