The product, in the report: Farberware Microwave Model FM011AHTBKD
Caller is reporting that the microwave emanated smoldering smoke, the maintenance person for the apartment building contained the fire with a fire extinguisher, the fire department came out and fire report was done. This unit was not in use as related to him by his relative. She was taken to the hospital to be checked for smoke inhalation and was released a few hours later. Caller stated that he thought that something was in the unit that had caused the incident to occur but there was no evidence. The fire department advised him that he would need to get a service technician to examine and diagnose the microwave because they did not do that.
(9/16) He stated that he got a service technician from an appliance repair company to examine the unit, who informed him that the incident was caused by the microwave control board. Caller stated that he has stored the unit in his back yard due to the horrible odor.
The manufacturer was not contacted as yet. Caller feels that this microwave is a fire hazard and should be recalled.
