What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled dishwashers, remove the fuse or shut off the circuit breaker for the dishwasher to disconnect it from its electrical supply, and contact Maytag Corporation to verify that their dishwasher is affected by this recall. Consumers are advised to inform all potential users of the dishwasher that there is a risk of fire associated with the use of the recalled dishwashers. Consumers with affected dishwashers will have the option of scheduling a free in-home repair, or receiving a rebate following the purchase of certain new Maytag-brand stainless-steel tub dishwashers. The rebate is $150 for the purchase of a new model MDB7609 dishwasher or $250 if applied toward the purchase of a new model MDB8959 or MDB7809. Consumers are asked not to return dishwashers to stores. For more information, consumers may contact Maytag Corporation toll-free at 1-800-544-5513, or visit the Maytag recall website .
