Samsung Recalls Washing Machines

Things are just not looking good for Samsung.

As you probably know, 1 million Samsung Galaxy Note cell phones were recalled in September. The company urged users to stop using them immediately due several reports that the phone would burst into flames while charging.

It seems as though another one of their products is experiencing a similar malfunction. According to CNN, Samsung has been dealing with a class action lawsuit over the Samsung washing machines. The company has since recalled 3 million machines after reports have come in of the machines exploding.

A Texas woman reported that her machine exploded so violently that it "penetrated the interior wall of the garage." On Friday, Samsung Electronics and federal regulators said that these events could happen while cleaning bulky or water resistant products on high. It could cause the machine to vibrate excessively, which in turn could discharge the washing machine lid.

Samsung is offering free in home repair, one year warranty or rebate on new washer as well as free instillation of the new washer and removal of the old.
