Samsung — still reeling from its fire-prone Galaxy Note 7 smartphone — is recalling almost 3 million washing machines because they can explode.
Samsung Electronics and federal regulators announced the recall on Friday after reports that the lids of the machines can pop off violently while the laundry is spinning, posing an injury risk.
Samsung said it can happen when bedding, water-resistant or bulky items are washed on high speed. The drum can lose its balance, causing excessive vibrations that dislodge the lid.
