Samsung, makers of the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy Note 7, is embroiled in a federal class action suit after receiving consumer complaints that some of its top-loading washing machines allegedly exploded.

Reports say that the machines in question vibrate under heavy loads, wherein the violent vibration during the machines' cycle causes the washer tub to become unstable. With this, it leads the tub to be unfastened, causing a centrifugal explosion that damages the machine and anything nearby.

In court filings in McAllen, Texas, a woman narrated that her washer "exploded with such ferocity that it penetrated the interior wall of her garage," CNN reported. In the same report, a woman from Dallas, Georgia said, "it felt and sounded as if a bomb went off."

With this alarming turn of events, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) issued a warning citing some Samsung Washing Machines might have safety issues in light of the reported explosions. The statement dated Sept. 28, 2016 states "...CPSC is actively and cooperatively working with Samsung to address safety issues related to certain top-load washing machines made between March 2011 and April 2016." The statement also said, "Consumers can contact Samsung for more information. Consumers should report any incidents to CPSC via our website www.SaferProducts.gov."

For its part, Samsung has not released a list of the specific models that are affected, but washer owners can check this link to see if their top-load machines are included on the list by keying in the models' serial number. Samsung advised its top-load washer owners to use the delicate cycle of their machines and issued an official statement:

"In rare cases, affected units may experience abnormal vibrations that could pose a risk of personal injury or property damage when washing bedding, bulky or water-resistant items."
