Latest AGA Luxury Range Recall Developments
September 2026
September 10, 2026 – AGA Rangemaster recalled about 3,992 freestanding dual fuel ranges in the United States because a missing cap from the gas test port can allow gas to leak, posing fire and explosion hazards that could cause serious injury or death. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission instructed consumers to shut off the gas supply immediately, stop using the gas surface burners, and contact AGA Rangemaster for a free inspection and repair. [1]
What Is the AGA Luxury Range Recall?
The recall involves freestanding AGA Elise and Mercury Series Dual Fuel Ranges in 36- and 48-inch widths and La Cornue CornuFé Series Dual Fuel Ranges in 36- and 43-inch widths. The appliances combine gas surface burners with between one and three electric ovens depending on the model.
AGA Rangemaster Limited manufactured the affected ranges in the United Kingdom between March 19, 2025 and July 24, 2026. They were sold through authorized appliance dealers nationwide from March 2025 through July 2026 for about $6,000 to $20,000.
Which AGA and La Cornue Models Are Recalled?
The recall includes the following models:
- AGA Elise AEL361DF
- AGA Elise AEL481DF
- AGA Mercury AMC36DF
- AGA Mercury AMC48DF
- La Cornue CornuFé 90 LAC9
- La Cornue CornuFé 110 LAC1
All colors, trim options, and natural-gas or LP-gas configurations of these models are included if they were manufactured during the specified production period. Consumers can find the model and serial number on the rating plate located on the bottom panel of the range underneath the storage drawer.
Why Were AGA Luxury Ranges Recalled?
The recalled ranges may be missing a cap from the gas test port. If the cap is absent, gas can escape from the appliance and accumulate in the surrounding area.
Leaking natural gas or LP gas can create a serious hazard if it reaches an ignition source. A burner flame, electrical spark, or other source of ignition could ignite accumulated gas and cause a fire or explosion.
The CPSC describes the defect as posing a risk of serious injury or death. The recall was issued even though no incidents or injuries had been reported when the notice was published.
What Should Owners of Recalled AGA Ranges Do?
Consumers should immediately shut off the gas supply to the range and determine whether their model and serial number are included in the recall. Affected consumers should contact AGA Rangemaster for a free inspection and repair performed by a certified technician.
The gas surface burners should not be used while the gas supply is shut off. According to the CPSC, consumers may continue using the electric oven sections while waiting for inspection and repair.
Who May Be Affected?
Consumers who purchased an AGA Elise, AGA Mercury, La Cornue CornuFé 90, or La Cornue CornuFé 110 range manufactured between March 19, 2025 and July 24, 2026 may own an affected appliance. About 3,992 ranges are included in the U.S. recall, with approximately 336 additional units sold in Canada.
Owners should confirm the model and serial number rather than relying only on the appearance of the appliance. People who experienced a gas leak, fire, explosion, burn, smoke exposure, or property damage involving an affected range may also want to preserve photographs, purchase documents, repair records, fire reports, and other evidence.
What Injuries Can a Gas Range Fire or Explosion Cause?
Gas fires and explosions can expose people to intense heat, flames, smoke, and debris. MedlinePlus identifies flames, hot gases, and smoke as potential causes of burns and inhalation injuries. [2]
Potential injuries may include:
- Superficial, partial-thickness, or full-thickness burns
- Burns to the face, hands, arms, or other exposed areas
- Smoke inhalation and respiratory injuries
- Eye irritation or injury
- Lacerations or trauma from broken materials or debris
- Scarring or disfigurement following severe burns
Smoke inhalation can also injure the respiratory system and lungs. MedlinePlus notes that inhalation injuries can occur from breathing smoke, gases, chemicals, or extreme heat and may cause coughing, breathing difficulty, chest tightness, and other respiratory symptoms. [3]
Have Any AGA Range Injuries Been Reported?
No incidents or injuries had been reported to the CPSC when the September 10, 2026 recall was announced. The recall was based on the potential severity of the gas-leak, fire, and explosion hazard rather than a reported injury count.
The lack of reported incidents at the time of the notice does not mean that the hazard is insignificant. A gas leak can create a dangerous condition before a fire or explosion occurs, which is why consumers were instructed to shut off the gas supply immediately.
Who May Be Liable for an AGA Range Injury?
Potential liability depends on the circumstances of an individual incident and the law governing the claim. Manufacturers, distributors, retailers, installers, or other parties involved with an appliance may potentially be evaluated if an alleged defect or other wrongful conduct contributes to an injury.
Product-liability claims may involve allegations of a manufacturing defect, design defect, inadequate warnings, negligence, or breach of warranty. A claimant generally must establish a legally recognized basis for liability and show that the alleged problem caused or contributed to the claimed injury or loss.
AGA Rangemaster Limited is identified by the CPSC as the manufacturer of the recalled ranges. The recall itself does not automatically establish legal liability in an individual case.
Current AGA Luxury Range Lawsuit Status
The September 10, 2026 CPSC notice announces a consumer product recall and free repair program. The notice does not announce a class action, multidistrict litigation proceeding, personal injury settlement, or other coordinated legal proceeding involving the recalled AGA or La Cornue ranges.
An individual product-liability claim may still be evaluated if a recalled range allegedly caused a fire, explosion, burn injury, inhalation injury, or substantial property damage. Whether a claim is viable depends on the facts, available evidence, causation, damages, and applicable state law.
Do I Qualify for an AGA Luxury Range Claim?
- Did you own or use an AGA Elise, AGA Mercury, La Cornue CornuFé 90, or CornuFé 110 range?
- Was the appliance manufactured between March 19, 2025 and July 24, 2026?
- Did you experience a gas leak, fire, explosion, or related malfunction?
- Did the incident cause an injury, medical treatment, or significant property damage?
Answering yes to one or more questions does not automatically establish a lawsuit. An attorney can review the model and serial number, incident circumstances, repair history, injuries, property damage, and applicable legal deadlines to determine whether further investigation may be appropriate.
Legal Process for an AGA Luxury Range Claim
- Free case review. An attorney reviews the recalled appliance, the circumstances of the incident, and any resulting injuries or property damage.
- Investigation. Evidence may include the range, model and serial information, photographs, purchase records, repair records, fire reports, medical records, and witness information.
- Filing. If the evidence and applicable law support a claim, a lawsuit may be filed against one or more potentially responsible parties.
- Discovery/negotiation. The parties may exchange evidence, take testimony, consult experts, investigate the alleged defect, and discuss possible resolution.
- Resolution. A case may conclude through settlement, dismissal, court ruling, or trial depending on its facts and procedural history.
Compensation in an AGA Range Case
Depending on the circumstances, a product-liability claim may seek damages for medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, scarring, property damage, and other losses permitted under applicable law. The damages available in any particular claim depend on the facts and jurisdiction.
Compensation amounts vary by case. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes.
