Melting

I have a Samsung model 171V S; serial number GH17HCFW211783H.  Looking at the back of the monitor 4.5 inches down it has begun to melt.  The melt extended to 6.25 inches and the melt is a little over an inch wide; thus making a hole.  This is a serious fire hazard and it's fortunate that I discovered it and disconnected the monitor.  Is this a problem with this model and are there any recalls?
