The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

  1. No one hurt

    Made May 15, 2011, published by CPSC Jun 7, 2011

    The product, in the report: Bosch dishwasher Model # SHU43C05UC/14 Serial # FD830701395 stainless steel built-in 24” dishwasher

    Bosch dishwasher Model # SHU43C05UC/14, Serial # FD830701395, purchased in 2003, suffered a small explosion from the control panel and caught fire on May 14, 2011. Two plastic control buttons burst from the door of the unit, and in flames, landed on the floor of the kitchen, scorching the wood floor. Fortunately, we were home and were able to cut power to the dishwasher (the failure did not trip the circuit breaker) and extinguish the fire both inside the dishwasher panel and on the floor.

    We purchased the dishwasher at an Expo Design Center store. These stores, although owned by The Home Depot, are now closed. We have learned today that many of these Bosch dishwashers were recalled. We were never notified of the recall, and believe the closure of the Expo store probably contributed to that notification failure.

    If we had not been home at the time, this failure would have resulted in far greater property damage due to the fires both within the dishwasher (built into wooden cabinets) and the burning plastic buttons which landed on the wood floor.
