I bought a thermometer and it says my oven is 550 when it should be at 375. I particularly don't care (we are renting) because we rarely cook in the oven. I was telling my mom what I am planning on saying to the owner, and when she heard that it was that overheated, she mentioned how once her element blew up, and her neighbors had also, and that they were both lucky it happened with the oven door closed or else they could have lost their faces looking as they know them.
Anyway, the question is, what would cause an element to blow up like that, and should I ask the landlord to fix it since I don't care that it is off (I just go by the thermometer).
Thanks, Emily
