The product, in the report: General Electric digital,14cup,food processors.(Black & Silver) .
I recivied the General Electric digital 14-cup,food processors for Christmas. I saw in my local news paper that it is being recalled, I have noticed that it will operate without the lid locked in place. It is one of the ones that are being recalled the model # is 169203. I have all the paper work that came with the processor but I don’t have the box it came in. What should I do ?
Thank-you [redacted]
