activity: set food in microwave, close door, select time, press run, it runs on, and "Stop" does not break cycle. Must open door to stop. this is random, so far, not consistent. 

Anyone else see this?

Update. When this happens, the turntable is rotating, and fan can be heard, but it does not appear that any heat is being generated. none of the buttons on the panel respond. Only way to stop is to open the door.
