Reason for Recall
The burner assembly in the stoves can restrict the flow of gas, which can cause a leak. The leaking gas can ignite and weaken the hose, causing it to separate from the stove and pose a fire hazard to consumers.
Action Taken
The firm that announced the recall is no longer in business. Consumers should stop using the product immediately and contact the previous owner to arrange for returning the product and receiving a refund.
