The product, in the report: Hood Fan
www.Build.com purchased the unit from: Almo Corporation (800)836-2522
10/04/2015 - The consumer indicates that the unit turned on by itself around 2100 hours and since then the consumer has been unable to turn off the unit. The consumer tripped off the circuit breaker that supplies power to the unit and it finally turned off. The consumer tripped the circuit breaker back on a couple of times and the unit turned on again, not having turned off until the circuit breaker was tripped off permanently, an inconvenience because the same circuit breaker supplies electricity to half her kitchen and its appliances.
10/06/2015 - The consumer first contacted the retailer; she was told that they could not do anything as the unit was no longer under warranty. They advised the consumer to call their distributor; when she did, she spoke to a [REDACTED] (?) and was then again told that they could not provide any assistance for such a defect. [REDACTED] provided the consumer with the contact information for the manufacturer as well as a local repair shop. The consumer contacted the repair shop and was told that the issue was probably with the motherboard and it would cost upwards two hundred dollars. The consumer contacted the manufacturer and they told her that they could not assist her in any way as the unit was out of warranty.
The consumer has no injuries nor previous incidents to report. The consumer believes this product poses a safety hazard.
