  1. No one hurt

    Made Jan 29, 2017, sent to the company Feb 15, 2017, published by CPSC Mar 2, 2017

    The product, in the report: The faulty product was a white 2007 Bosch Nexxt DLX frontloading washing machine.

    We had a 9-year old Bosch front loader washing machine. Nexxt DLX Series.

    We put a load of laundry in the machine and about 10 minutes into the cycle all of the fire alarms in the house were activated. We had a fire in the house. There were 3 foot flames coming out of the electrical panel on the top right corner of the washing machine. We put the flames out but the fire reignited on the left side of the electrical panel. We put it out again and called the fire department.

    The fire department arrived and confirmed that the fire was out. They opened up the wall that had been burned adjacent to the machine to determine that the fire had not spread into the walls of the house. Soot had covered the 2nd floor of the house where the laundry room and washing machine are located, as well as our bedrooms. The wall and floor in the laundry room were ruined. Thankfully we were home or our house would have burned down.
