  1. No incident, no one hurt

    Made Mar 3, 2025, sent to the company Mar 13, 2025, published by CPSC Mar 27, 2025

    The product, in the report: Coleman Furnace. Serial #W1N0505479 Model #TM9V060B12MP11A. Manufactured in 2010, installed in my house in 2012.

    I own a Coleman/York 96% efficient furnace manufactured by Johnson Controls Heating and Cooling. The clear condensate collector has cracked and developed several leaks (see attached pics). Leaking water is rusting the sheetmetal in the upper area of the furnace above the lower compartment which houses electronic circuitry for controlling it. There are also electrical connectors in the pan that the water is leaking into. According to the technician, if water reaches this area, it will cause the motor to short out.

    Apparently there was a bulletin released that indicated a warranty issue if the part ‘prematurely’ cracked. According to the Johnson rep, consumers were not notified of this issue and now that my warranty is 2 years past, the part is no longer covered. Does that mean it is no longer a safety issue?? It seems that this is still a safety concern and a known defective part should be covered. According to the technician, this issue probably started at least 2 years ago before my warranty expired. I called Johnson Control, they indicated that since the part did not leak prematurely, it would no longer be covered. Also, when I spoke to the representative, she indicated that there never was a recall only a bulletin. However, there appears to be evidence from other sources (pictures attached) that there was a recall. Either way, I was never notified and had no way of mitigating the problem.

  2. No one hurt

    Made Jan 9, 2016, sent to the company May 6, 2016, published by CPSC May 20, 2016

    The product, in the report: Coleman Gas Furnace Model DGAF100CDK Serial Number W0H6752243 100 BTU 115 U Installed in Drywall inclosed closet with vented door.

    Furnace was installed in our new home in 2006. Twice since installation it has kicked on to the initial warm up stage, but failed to cycle to the next stage and start the blower. The result is that the furnace begins to over-heat to the point were the filter begins to smoke.

    Fortunately someone was home to force the heater to shut off. The filter was so hot that it could not be touched.

    The repairman that came out both times said that the filters we are using are appropriate for the unit. The cause was determined to be a failure in the circuit board. The circuit board was replaced both times, for over $600 each time.

    Now the same problem has occurred with out second furnace, which is the same make and model.

    The product, in the report: Coleman furnace, Model DGAA090, serial number 000922990

    Heat exchanger had 2 huge cracks in it rendering the unit unsafe. The defects were exactly as described in other Coleman furnaces that were recalled. I was forced to buy a new one. My model number was DGAA090, and serial number was 000922990.

    The product, in the report: Coleman Furnance MFG Housing

    Purchased Coleman furnace 2 years ago. We were just getting cool air coming out of our vents. Service tech came out to service. “Tech found severe crack in heat exchanger with heavy roll out, burning wires to gas valve and sensor. Unit shut down. NOT SAFE TO RUN.” Coleman had a mass recall on a different model of furnace for this same issue. Carbon monoxide detector would occasionally go off. Tech stated if we were to turn on the furnace we could very likely catch our house on fire. As for injury’s we were possibly exposed to carbon monoxide.

    The product, in the report: Coleman Gas Furnace Model CP9C080B12MP11A, 98% MODULATING VARIABLE GAS FURNACE 80,000 BTU/HR

    The condensate task developed a leak at the plastic welding line. It was certainly a manufacturing problem because this tank should never leak and it doesn’t move at all, ever.

    The leaking water ran over some of the sheetmetal in the upper area of the furnace and found its way into the lower compartment which houses the electronic circuitry for controlling the furnace. I am concerned that it would have eventually caused a short-circuit and fire.

    This furnace is <2 years old.

    The product, in the report: Coleman Combustion Downflow Gas Furnance (propane) for Mobile Home

    WE had a Coleman furnance installed in 2004. We had a repairman here to check the furnance because of the noise. Thank heavens. [REDACTED]. The firebox was known to have cracks in it after using it. We have three cracks, which one is large and the fan blades are melted. [REDACTED]. The company will not respond to my phone calls. The reason this furnance lasted this long is because we only used it for a backup in the winter. This furnance is for a mobile home, which we live in. The new furnance, which will be a Miller will cost us $2200.00 to have it installed. Without a furnance our pipes would freeze and break. The repaiarman said that we were really lucky not to of had a fire or carbon monoxide poisoning.

    The product, in the report: Gas Furnace ROC# 201-106-03-F8C54-1185593

    Consumer stated that she noticed the furnace covering had melted plastic around it, she is assuming that the power might have gone out to cause this, according to the manufacturer statement. Consumer said that there were 6 other homes in the comunity who experienced melting on their units.

    Consumer stated that she feels that this unit is unsafe if it causes overheating, smoking and melting whenever there is a power outage and this seems to be a fire hazard.

    A report of this hazard was made to [REDACTED] of the Brockton Fire Department.

    Consumer is concern that this furnace is a safety hazard and should be reported.
