Question about Kenmore 75503 Stainless Steel Dual Fuel (Electric and Gas) Kitchen Range
The racks in my 75503 fall to the bottom of the oven when you bake.
It's like the dimensions of the oven walls or the racks have changed. The racks are about 1/4" too short to fit properly. Has anybody seen this problem before. It's a first for me
I have the same problem with a Kenmore oven. Looks like the oven walls have bent outward.

I have the same problem with my kenmore oven...it is quite dangerous. The racks seem to also be 1/4 inch to narrow. Has anyone noticed a recall on kenmore ovens?

I have th same problem on my Kenmoore elite. Service man is going to replace the liner. He doesn't belive it will fix it. I have asked sears for a different stove. Can't find any one complaining about GE

This is a 100% fix.

This is a great idea thanks. I found a local welder who supplied and attached these rods on our 3 racks for around $50. Considering that Frigidaire wanted $80 for each oversize rack to cure our problem this was a cheap effective cure. I must say though after this and another problem with Frigidair I will not purchase another cooker from them future!

Add 3/4 inch office supply binder clips to each side of the rack with the rounded handle of the clips pointing to the middle. I added two to each side. The clip in the front is tilted up slightly to make sliding the rack easier, however the racks don't easily slide in and out but heavy pans can now be placed on the rack and they will hold. I've even placed a cast iron dutch oven on the rack without a problem. Depending on your warp, you may have to experiment how many clips to use and where on the rack to position them. It's worked for me for almost a year.

I was worried that welding would be expensive, so I just took some aluminum foil and rolled it into a long thick wire shape. I then coiled it around the rack on either side to extend the width of the rack. I considered picking up some copper wire and doing the same thing, but I had the aluminum foil handy.

Sears has no solution other than call repair and have a costly replacement of oven cavatiy, with no guarantee it will not happen again. Turn power off to stove, a precaution. Unscrew top, mine is ceramic top, pull forward and lift, slide to side. Remember wires are still attached to burners. Unscrew back and side. Looking at stove, I did left side. Open bottom oven door, remember the way this comes out is the way to put it back on, Lift side panel up and twist it towards you, you may have to jiggle or shake it. (The panel slides in at bottom in front of leg.) you may want to use a mask at this point. This exposes the insulation covering the oven measure a piece of 2x4 or 2x3 pieces of wood, I used 2lb rubber mallet, if you don't have use a 2 lbs heavy hammer. Put the wood vertical across all the rack cuts on outside of oven side, using light to medium force hit wood in center and move forward a few inches, repeat til you get to front and repeat going to rear. Test racks for fit. I had to do it once more applying slightly more force and racks fit prefect and snug. ( I slipped and hit oven edge and bent it in don't fret I put wood on inside of oven and moved it flush from inside to out, so be careful). Reassembly the stoves. And yes Kenmore no longer stands behind and is now producing substandard products. My opinion. Good luck.

The liner needs to be replaced. I contacted Sears and surprisingly found out that my Kenmore Elite 790.46603501 model only cost $180.20 to replace the liner! No idea what the labor will run since I am 2 years out of warranty. I love this oven and a compatible model would run me well over $1500 I think I will go with replacing the liner. I won't use the self-cleaning function once it is replace, just in case this was the original cause.

I have the same model Kenmore oven with the same problem. Repair guy came today. They no longer work for Sears but a company called A&E. The liner will cost $216.29 and the labor is $523.80 for a total of $791.90 including tax. This is unacceptable, why should the liner warp unless it was a defect. It looks like I am not alone.

I have the same problem with my LG oven. Racks fall down, they seem smaller than the actual dime tins of the oven. I don't know what to do.

Finally got in touch with my mother who suggested soaking the racks in the bathtub in very warm water with ammonium for as long as it took to loosen the dirt. Works like a charm. Remember to only do in a ventilated area and use gloves.

Hello Kathy Manson - Unfortunately, based on the symptoms you are describing, the oven liner would need to be replaced. The oven liner cannot be adjusted or shimmed to resolve this issue. If I was in your position, I personally recommend consulting an experiencing service technician to assist with the repairs.

I have the same problem - what is the solution?
Same problem here. We have model 79046622505. Repair man is coming out in two days. I'll post what he says. This one is going to be reported to the consumer products safety commission for sure. This is way too dangerous and unacceptable.
