Oven Door Problem

I have not had a chance to look at this, but discovered a problem today.

Looks like the screws holding the front of the door to the frame have come loose or out. let the forum know what you find and how you correct it

X2, just replaced my oven door front yesterday. The door on my model has 2 slots that tabs slip into on the bottom and 2 screws that hold it tight on top.
Easy fix.

Yes, you are both all over it. I remember the original owner telling me the oven handle was replaced while he owned it. They should have installed four screws to reattach the external door cover. But, they only put the two visible screws in the top. It took three years to hit enough bumps to make the bottom come loose. LAZY repair people . . .

I dropped by a couple of local RV shops after I found them missing. They didn't have anything close to the screws available. I checked Lowes and they didn't have the same type of screw.

I found this assortment at the local auto parts store and the 1/2" screws worked perfect, although they look slightly different.
