GE Appliances is recalling about 11,000 JP3030 model knob-controlled electric radiant cooktops manufactured between July and September 2022. The cooktop's burners can fail to turn off or regulate temperature properly, even when the control knob is set to the "off" position, because of misaligned or fractured knob components. GE has received 83 reports of this malfunction occurring, though no injuries have been reported to date. These units have black or white glass surfaces with four radiant burners and four control knobs located on the right side. Consumers are advised to contact GE for a free replacement knob assembly.
The burners can stay powered on and hot after use even after being turned to the "off" position, posing a significant burn hazard. While the main "On" indicator light may turn off, the "Hot Cooktop" light for the affected burner will remain lit until power is disconnected at the circuit breaker.
Consumers should immediately contact GE Appliances to arrange for free installation of a replacement burner knob assembly. When not in use, turn the unit off at the circuit breaker. Do not leave flammable materials or empty cookware on or near the cooktop. In the affected units, the burner can remain on following use even after being turned to the "off" position. In this case, the "On" indicator light will not be illuminated, but the "Hot Cooktop" light corresponding to the burner will remain illuminated until power to the cooktop is turned off at the breaker switch.
