On 15.09.2025, while cooking on our Arçelik brand built-in black glass-based 4-burner stove in our home in Çankaya, Ankara, we suddenly heard a loud explosion. The pot jumped up and the glass part of the stove was completely shattered. The next day, the authorized service that came after the incident did not detect any signs of impact. They stated that there might have been air trapped inside during manufacturing, which could have caused the glass to explode. My product is under warranty until 2032.
Later, we were called by the Arçelik regional office and were told that their engineers had detected an impact, and that the stove could be replaced if we paid 3,800 TL. Despite requesting the engineer and service reports, we were not given any documents. We have been waiting for a solution for over a month and feel like we are constantly being stalled.
Despite contacting customer service multiple times by phone and online, our complaint was only listened to and we were told 'there is nothing to be done.' I request that my stove be replaced free of charge under warranty.
