CPSC Press Release

In cooperation with the Consumer Product Safety Commission, Viking is voluntarily recalling certain Model 325 and Model 450 Viking 24" Dishwashers manufactured between May 26, 2010 and September 15, 2010.
No Model VDB450E, DFB450E, VDB325E, and DDB325E Dishwashers are involved in the recall. In addition, no Model 200 Dishwashers are involved in the recall.

The voluntary recall is being implemented as a result of the potential for fire. In dishwashers manufactured between May 26, 2010 and September 15, 2010, an electrical connector to the dishwasher heater may fail resulting in overheating and creating a risk of fire. If you own a Viking dishwasher and suspect that your unit is affected by this recall or are unsure if your model is affected, please locate the model and serial number on your dishwasher and enter it into the form below.  Once you submit your information, you will be prompted as to whether or not your dishwasher is affected.  If you own an affected product, instructions regarding the next steps will be included.
