The product, in the report: Wolf 36 inch stainless steel built-in gas range.
We own a 36 inch Wolf Range that we purchased in 2004. When we turn on the oven, there is a delay of about a minute. Then the gas turns on for 10 seconds, filling the oven with gas. During this period, the kitchen gets a strong odor of natural gas. Finally, after 10 seconds of gas filling the oven, the ignitor lights the gas. Since the oven is filled with gas, there is a small explosion. If I open the oven to check to see if the oven is lit yet, the flame jumps out at me.
I brought this matter to the attention of Wolf/Sub-zero in 2009, and they refused to fix it under warranty. I created a video in 2010 of the entire lighting cycle and posted it on You Tube: http://youtu.be/O-XdmGMutdw . After posting this, others have told me they have the same problem, so I don’t think my experience is isolated.
The symptoms we experience closely match those experienced with recalls of the same oven on October 18, 2001, and the recall of 48 inch ranges in 2008.
In the October 18, 2001 recall, the serial numbers included in the recall were 60-10000000 through 60-1099999 and 11000957 through 11006106. Our serial number is 11115391 so we were not included, although the symptoms were the same.
I believe that Wolf sold us a range that should have been fixed during the recall in 2001, but wasn’t. It’s a dangerous issue, and I don’t think we should fear our oven every time we light the oven.
