All the details are on the Beko website if you can get on it. I bet it’s a bit hot morning with all the traffic..Re: Beko fridge freeze recall
Quite right, Samsung may have been worse. However, Jeremy Vine did not help the situation on his show today. During the show it did not come accross very well at all. Quite poor really for Jeremy. A bit too sensationalist, rather than a practical sensible debate or advice. Too many Jeremy fans who came on the Vine show instead of the Kyle show. Lots of comments like: “I want a new freezer for this”, “I should be paid to take the day off”.
That said, this has all come out because London Fire Brigade has seen 20 fires due to these appliances. At least one person has died as a direct result of this fault. Nationally it will be a lot worse!!
We need a national recall organisation like they do in the USA. http://www.cpsc.gov/
Too much is left to the companies to sort, and they generally make little or no effort unless forced to by bad publicity…..

None needed really, I expect it will end in tears.
As for the recall thing, I’m out of the UK so I haven’t seen it yet but it does look to be pretty serious and the unfortunate death very sad news indeed.

Re: Beko fridge freeze recall
….I bet there’s quite a run on sourcing defrost timers. Only 89,000 still to cover. Do Connect stock them?
Re: Beko fridge freeze recall
People are asking if they should stop using the appliance if theirs is one affected. They are saying they cannot get through to Beko. People with small children are especially frightened that theirs could catch fire. If unable to get through to Beko I would unplug the machine and claim consequential damage.
