Was told it was a serious problem and was emitting microwaves. This was not a good thing. He unplugged the microwave and made me promise not to use it. Had new parts installed and it was all covered by the extended warranty! Glad I purchased that extended warranty! Don't wait for an email response - call the number on your warranty. If you don't have the warranty I would call GE and speak to a live person. I believe this is a serious problem. Good Luck!
THAT is scary!!

I agree that that speaking to a live person is a must!

This is a situation that I would not accept a repair. I would insist on the microwave being replaced.
