WASHINGTON, D.C. (WATE) - Thousands of GE front load washers are being recalled because they're a hazard to consumers.
The washer's basket can separate during use and break the washer's top panel possibly injuring a user.
The washers were sold at Best Buy, Lowe's, Sears, Home Depot and other stores nationwide. They were sold from July 2008 to August 2011.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled washers and contact GE for a free repair. You can contact GE Appliances at (888) 641-9739 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday or visit the firm's website.
The model and serial numbers have been posted on the Consumer Product Safety Commission website.
