LG Is Recalling 500,000 Of These Stoves After Dozens Of Burn Incidents

LG Electronics has just joined a line of 2025 recalls, following 17,000 pounds of sausage from DJ's Boudain, Walmart's broccoli, and more. After a series of fires, LG recalled 500,000 ranges — specifically, the Slide-In Ranges and Freestanding Ranges. According to a notice by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), these fires have caused injuries to both people and pets, as well as property damage. Three of the fires even led to the death of a pet. The accidents were due to the front-mounted knobs, which can easily turn by accident — the CPSC has reported 86 instances of this happening. Further, there have been 28 fires involving these ranges, leading to eight minor injuries and property damage adding up to over $340,000. These stoves were sold nationwide from 2015 to January 2025 at appliance stores including Best Buy, Home Depot, Costco, Lowe's, and LG's website. You can check the model and serial numbers of the ranges involved by reading the CPSC recall notice. Read more: The Best Kitchen Gadgets You Can Buy If your stove is one of the LG ranges being recalled, the CPSC encourages you to "contact LG for a free warning label and placement instructions." The label includes instructions on how to use the Lock Out/Control Lock function to prevent accidentally turning out the range when you're not using it. You can also watch a video detailing how to do this. Finally, the CPSC has encouraged consumers to be cautious with the ranges — specifically, "to keep children and pets away from the knobs, to check the range knobs to ensure they are off before leaving home or going to bed, and not to leave objects on the range when the range is not in use." It's important to keep all of this in mind, as burns are one of the most common kitchen injuries.

More Than 17,000 Pounds of Sausage Have Been Recalled—Here's What to Know

The U.S. Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has announced that 17,720 pounds of DJ's Boudain sausage link products are being recalled due to the possible contamination with foreign materials. The notice cites the specific presence of 'pieces of a pen' in the meat products and urges consumers not to eat any of it. The FSIS has provided a list of the products named in the recall, which can be found here, as well as images of each individual label. The fresh and frozen boudain sausage link products were produced on January 23, 2025 and bear the establishment number 'EST. 13246' inside of the USDA mark of inspection. These products were shipped to distributors, restaurant and retail locations across Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas. 😋😋 🍳🍔 The contamination was discovered thanks to a consumer complaint which detailed the discovery of a piece of a pen while eating the Original Boudain sausage links product. So far, only one report of oral injury associated with consumption of this product has been filed, and the FSIS has received no additional reports of injury or illness as of yet. Those who do find themselves concerned about an injury should always first seek help from a medical professional. While the recall is still ongoing, the FSIS is concerned that some of the products may be in 'consumers', retailers', and restaurants' refrigerators or freezers.' Consumers are urged not to eat these products, and rather throw them away or return to where they were purchased for a refund. Related: The FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to ensure the health and safety of consumers, and claims in the recall notice that a detailed retail distribution list will be posted on the FSIS website at Additionally, those with further questions or concerns related to this product recall can contact Jonathan Wallace, Vice President of Operations at DJ's Boudain, LLC, at 409-842-0558 ext. 111 or jwallace@ For future notice, anyone with food safety questions can call the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline toll-free at 888-MPHotline (888-674-6854), or send a question via email to MPHotline@ The online Electronic Consumer Complaint Monitory System for reporting problems with a meat, poultry or egg product can also be accessed 24 hours a day at Up Next:
