Recall on GE Dwashers

Sent to me by a realtor friend.

:shock:

Today (May 16, 2007), GE announced a recall of 2.5 million dishwashers manufactured between September 1997 to December 2001 due to a fire hazard. Several brand names are included (GE, GE Profile, GE Monogram, Hotpoint and Eterns).

GE is offering either $150 or $300 rebates on the purchase of a new dishwasher: http://www.geappliances.com/products/recall/dw07/
