Gas Ranges and Wall Ovens Recalled by Prizer-Painter Stove Works Due to Burn Hazard

Agency Publication Date: September 11, 2018

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Approximately 7,100 BlueStar and Big Chill gas ranges and wall ovens are being recalled because accumulated gas can ignite when the convection fan is used during pre-heating or broiling. The firm has received 51 reports of flames or flares due to this delayed ignition issue, resulting in seven reported minor burns. These appliances were sold in various colors, including stainless steel, white, green, orange, aqua, dark blue, and black with gold trim, between May 2015 and October 2017. Prizer-Painter Stove Works is offering a free repair to fix the defect.

Risk

Using the convection fan during certain cycles causes gas to build up inside the oven cavity; if the oven door is opened during a delayed ignition event, the gas can flare out, causing burns to the user.

What You Should Do

  1. Locate the serial plate on your appliance to check if your model is included: for open burner ranges (star-shaped), look under the cast iron grates on the left; for sealed burner ranges (round), look behind the removable back guard; for wall ovens, look behind the control panel on the left wall.
  2. Verify if your serial number falls within the range of 1505000 through 1710999 and matches any of the model series listed (BlueStar Culinary, Nova, Heritage Classic, Precious Metals, Gas Wall Ovens, or Big Chill Retro, Pro, and Classic series).
  3. If your appliance is affected, immediately stop using the convection fan and keep it turned off until a repair is completed.
  4. Contact Prizer-Painter Stove Works at 800-449-8691 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit www.bluestarcooking.com or www.bigchill.com and click on “Voluntary Recall” to schedule your free repair.
  5. Contact the CPSC Hotline at 800-638-2772 for additional questions regarding this recall.
