Samsung has announced a major recall of more than 1.1 million electric ranges sold in the US since 2013, following reports of 250 fires. These incidents have caused significant property damage, injuries, and even the death of pets.
According to The Wall Street Journal, the issues with these ranges have led to severe safety concerns. Samsung has informed customers about the recall through its official US website. However, the company’s statement did not specify details about the fires or injuries associated with the affected appliances.
This recall is not Samsung’s first encounter with widespread product issues. Previously, the company recalled nearly all Galaxy Note 7 smartphones due to overheating and explosions.
Samsung is working to address the problem and enhance the safety of its products. Users are advised to check if their appliances are affected by the recall and take appropriate actions for replacement or repair.
