Default GE Microwave Problem

Originally placed this on New Members Forum but didn't get as many reply's as I expected. Since this problem could be a serious fire hazard thought I'd better repost on this forum.

Recently left the Villages for a week and when we came home the Microwave was running, making sparking noises and the light was flickering. We could not turn it off and had to open door to stop it. When door was closed it started up again. Unplugged it but when plugged it in later it did the same thing. Awaiting reply from GE on email I sent two days ago.

Saw on the internet that GE has had some recent problems with their microwaves and although some smoked, some caught fire.


Have since contacted GE direct by phone because they didn't reply to two emails. GE still not taking responsibility but have scheduled a repair man for next week. I won't have to pay for the service call according to Consumer Relations.
