Latest La Cornue CornuFé Range Recall Developments
September 2026
September 10, 2026 – AGA Rangemaster recalled La Cornue CornuFé 90 and CornuFé 110 dual fuel ranges, along with certain AGA Elise and Mercury ranges, because a missing cap from the gas test port can allow gas to leak. The CPSC warned that the defect poses fire and explosion hazards capable of causing serious injury or death and instructed consumers to shut off the gas supply immediately. [1]
What Is the La Cornue CornuFé Range Recall?
The recall includes freestanding La Cornue CornuFé Series Dual Fuel Ranges in 36- and 43-inch widths. The affected ranges use gas surface burners configured for either natural gas or LP gas and electric ovens.
The recalled La Cornue models are the CornuFé 90, model LAC9, and CornuFé 110, model LAC1. Both were manufactured between March 19, 2025 and July 24, 2026.
The broader recall covers about 3,992 AGA and La Cornue ranges in the United States, with about 336 additional units sold in Canada. They were sold through authorized appliance dealers nationwide from March 2025 through July 2026 for about $6,000 to $20,000.
Which La Cornue CornuFé Models Are Recalled?
- La Cornue CornuFé 90 – Model LAC9
- La Cornue CornuFé 110 – Model LAC1
The recall applies to affected ranges manufactured from March 19, 2025 through July 24, 2026. All colors, trim options, and units configured for natural gas or LP gas are included.
Consumers can locate the serial number on the rating plate on the bottom panel of the range underneath the storage drawer. Owners should use the model and serial number to determine whether their range is covered.
Why Were La Cornue CornuFé Ranges Recalled?
The recalled ranges may be missing a cap from the gas test port. Without the cap, natural gas or LP gas can leak from the appliance.
Gas that accumulates around a range can ignite if it reaches a flame, electrical spark, or another ignition source. The resulting fire or explosion could cause severe injuries, death, or substantial property damage.
The CPSC classified the problem as a risk of serious injury or death from fire or explosion hazards. No incidents or injuries had been reported when the recall was announced.
What Should Owners of Recalled La Cornue Ranges Do?
Consumers should immediately shut off the gas supply and stop using the gas surface burners. Owners should then verify whether their model and serial number are included and contact AGA Rangemaster for the recall remedy.
Affected consumers are eligible for a free inspection and repair by a certified technician. The CPSC states that the electric oven sections may continue to be used while the gas supply remains shut off.
Who May Be Affected?
Consumers who own a La Cornue CornuFé 90 model LAC9 or CornuFé 110 model LAC1 manufactured during the recall period may have an affected range. Owners should verify the model and serial number rather than relying only on the appliance’s appearance.
Consumers who experienced a gas leak, fire, explosion, burn, smoke exposure, or property damage involving one of these ranges may want to preserve photographs, service records, purchase documents, fire reports, and other evidence.
What Injuries Can a Gas Range Fire or Explosion Cause?
A gas-fueled fire or explosion can expose people to intense heat, open flames, and smoke. Potential injuries can include serious burns and respiratory injuries from smoke exposure.
- Superficial, partial-thickness, or full-thickness burns
- Burn injuries to the face, hands, arms, or torso
- Smoke inhalation and respiratory injuries
- Permanent scarring or disfigurement after severe burns
MedlinePlus identifies flames, fire, and hot gases as causes of burn injuries and notes that severe burns may require emergency medical treatment. [2]
Smoke and heated gases can also injure the respiratory system. MedlinePlus explains that inhalation injuries can result from breathing smoke, gases, or extreme heat and may cause coughing, breathing difficulty, chest tightness, and other symptoms. [3]
Have Any La Cornue CornuFé Injuries Been Reported?
No incidents or injuries had been reported to the CPSC when the recall was announced on September 10, 2026. The recall was initiated because of the potential severity of the gas leak, fire, and explosion hazard.
The absence of reported injuries at the time of the notice does not eliminate the potential danger. The CPSC instructed consumers to shut off the gas supply immediately rather than continue using the gas burners until the range has been inspected and repaired.
Who May Be Liable for a La Cornue Range Injury?
Potential liability depends on the facts of an individual incident and applicable law. Manufacturers, distributors, retailers, installers, or other parties connected with an allegedly defective appliance may potentially be evaluated when a product defect or other wrongful conduct contributes to an injury.
Possible product-liability claims may involve manufacturing defects, design defects, inadequate warnings, negligence, or breach of warranty. A claimant generally must establish a legally recognized basis for liability and show that the alleged defect or conduct caused or contributed to the injury or property loss.
AGA Rangemaster Limited is identified by the CPSC as the manufacturer of the recalled La Cornue and AGA ranges. The recall itself does not automatically establish liability in an individual claim.
Current La Cornue CornuFé Lawsuit Status
The September 10, 2026 CPSC notice announces a consumer product recall and free repair program involving the affected La Cornue CornuFé ranges. The notice does not announce a class action, multidistrict litigation proceeding, personal injury settlement, or other coordinated litigation.
An individual legal claim may still be evaluated if an affected CornuFé range allegedly caused a gas leak, fire, explosion, physical injury, or significant property damage. Whether a claim is viable depends on the evidence, causation, damages, applicable law, and filing deadlines.
Do I Qualify for a La Cornue CornuFé Range Claim?
- Did you own or use a La Cornue CornuFé 90 or CornuFé 110 range?
- Was your range manufactured between March 19, 2025 and July 24, 2026?
- Did the appliance leak gas, catch fire, explode, or otherwise 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 deadlines to determine whether further investigation may be appropriate.
Legal Process for a La Cornue CornuFé Range Claim
- Free case review. An attorney reviews the affected appliance, circumstances of the incident, and resulting injuries or property damage.
- Investigation. Evidence may include the range, model and serial number, 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, obtain testimony, consult experts, investigate the alleged defect, and discuss possible resolution.
- Resolution. A claim may conclude through settlement, dismissal, court ruling, or trial depending on its facts and procedural history.
Compensation in a La Cornue 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 depend on the facts and jurisdiction.
Compensation amounts vary by case. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes.
