The product, in the report: Built-in Electric Convection Oven (Double Ovens)
The upper oven would not turn off. After using my GE Built-in Electric Convection Oven last weekend when I went to turn it off a small section of the bottom element in the upper oven continued to heat. I watched it for a couple of hours thinking it would eventually cool, but the oven continued to stay hot and in fact the element started to burn through along its length. After investigating this problem on the internet we discovered that this was a common problem and had resulted in house fires when the element burned all the way around and then continued to heat which caused the back of the oven to catch fire. Upon finishing the repair to our oven, we were told that this is a known problem caused by a design flaw at GE. Evidently for a period of 5 to 7 years GE eliminated one of the relay switches in the ovens to try and save money; however, when they started to get complaints about the problem caused by this measure, they went back to the original design. We have never received any notification from GE about the potential hazards caused by this design change and in fact had to pay to have the problem corrected. In fact, they problem still exists because the only repair was to replace the element that had failed.
