Question posted by scootidge on October 26th, 2013

Oven Igniter Problem.

Purchased this oven new, and within six months have had many oven igniter problems. The oven burner will not ignite. Had the igniter replaced once under warranty. Now, two months later, same problem. Apparently, the igniter gap for the oven warps under high heat and does not allow the oven to light, the gap is too wide. This is an obvious defect in the design of this part. A recall is in order, and a redesign of the igniter module is in order. This is a great appliance, but has an obvious flaw.
