The AGA La Cornue dual fuel range recall requires some owners to stop using the gas functions immediately. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has recalled specified AGA Elise, AGA Mercury and La Cornue CornuFé dual-fuel ranges because some units may be missing a cap from the gas test port. A missing cap can allow gas to leak and create a fire or explosion hazard.
Direct answer: if you own one of the named range families, shut off the gas supply and check the exact model and serial number against the recall information. If your unit is included, arrange the free inspection and repair. CPSC says the electric oven sections may still be used, but the gas surface burners cannot be used while the gas supply is shut off.
Which AGA and La Cornue ranges are involved?
The recall covers specified models in the AGA Elise, AGA Mercury and La Cornue CornuFé dual-fuel range families. It does not mean every appliance sold under the AGA or La Cornue brands is recalled.
Model-family recognition is only the first step. Owners should use the model and serial number to confirm whether their individual range is within the recall scope rather than assuming eligibility from the brand name alone.
Why were the ranges recalled?
CPSC says affected ranges can be missing a cap from the gas test port. Without the cap, gas can leak from the range, creating a risk of fire or explosion and possible serious injury or death.
The recall notice reported no incidents or injuries. That does not reduce the importance of the immediate shutoff instruction because the hazard concerns what can happen if gas escapes from an affected unit.
What should you do now?
You own an AGA Elise, AGA Mercury or La Cornue CornuFé
Shut off the gas supply and locate the range’s model and serial information so you can check recall eligibility.
Your model and serial number are included
Keep the gas supply shut off and arrange the free inspection and repair offered through the recall process.
Your unit is not in the affected model and serial range
Do not assume another appliance problem is covered by this recall. Follow the manufacturer’s current service guidance for the issue you are experiencing.
You cannot determine whether your unit is affected
Keep the gas supply shut off until you can verify the model and serial information through the current recall guidance or manufacturer support.
Can you still use the oven?
Yes, the CPSC recall says the electric oven sections may continue to be used. The gas surface burners are different: they cannot be used when the gas supply has been shut off under the recall instruction.
This distinction matters because a dual-fuel range combines electric oven functions with gas cooking functions. The recall does not require owners to treat both energy sources as if they have the same operating restriction.
Can you use the gas burners?
No. Consumers are instructed to shut off the gas supply immediately. With the gas supply shut off, the gas surface burners must not be used until the unit has been checked and the required repair completed.
How do you check the model and serial number?
The identifying information is on the range’s rating plate. CPSC guidance places the rating plate on the bottom panel under the storage drawer. Record the model and serial number exactly before checking whether the unit is included.
Do not rely on appearance alone. Two ranges that look similar can have different model, production or serial-number eligibility.
What is the recall remedy?
Consumers with included units are offered a free inspection and repair by a certified technician. The inspection determines whether the gas-test-port cap issue is present and allows the required corrective work to be completed through the recall process.
Owners should not attempt an improvised gas-system repair based on the recall description. The controlling remedy is the certified inspection and repair arranged through the recall program.
How many ranges are affected?
CPSC says about 3,992 units are affected in the United States. The recall notice identifies ranges manufactured from March 19, 2025 through July 24, 2026. Canada has a related recall covering additional units, but U.S. owners should use the U.S. CPSC scope and model/serial information for their eligibility decision.
Does owning an AGA or La Cornue automatically mean your range is recalled?
No. The recall is limited to specified dual-fuel models and eligible model/serial combinations. Other AGA or La Cornue appliances should not be labelled recalled unless they are included in the controlling recall scope.
What should owners verify before using the range again?
- The exact model and serial number on the rating plate.
- Whether the unit is included in the current recall scope.
- That the gas supply remains shut off until the applicable inspection and repair are completed.
- Whether the manufacturer or CPSC has issued a later scope, remedy or safety update.
- That any repair is completed through the recall process rather than through an improvised gas-system fix.
What remains unknown?
The recall notice does not establish how many individual ranges actually have the cap missing, how many inspections or repairs have already been completed, or whether later incidents will be reported. Unit-specific defect status also cannot be determined from the brand name alone.
Verification note
ThePulseSignal reviewed the U.S. CPSC recall notice as the controlling U.S. source and checked the related Health Canada recall for independent confirmation of the product family, hazard and consumer action. The central recall, gas-shutoff instruction and free inspection/repair route are confirmed; owner-specific eligibility still depends on the exact model and serial number.
