Looks great, several items don't work

First of all, our kitchen opening is 36", the range is also 36". As I understand it most ranges are built about 1/8 inch narrower so they can fit standard openings. My fault for making a wrong assumption that the range would be a bit narrower. Items not working when installing the range: - no LED lights in the knobs. - hot surface indicator not working - convection fan not working - cooktop light not working - oven light not working - LED lights switch not working - random large nut stuck at the back of the stainless cooktop. Not sure if that is a feature? Hopefully we can get these items resolved. In the meantime, I need to get a granite company to shave the granite edge to allow the range to fit.
I have had the product about a month now and so far I must say the design quality is impressive. Cooks well and maintains steady oven temps for my sourdough bread baking adventures.
The seller did a bait and switch (Electronic Express) - horrible experience but stuck as we need an oven. Overall so far - so-so. Very slow for the oven to preheat but once heated maintains a steady temp.
I just spent hours cutting the cabinets in my kitchen to put this new range in place. I plugged it in but the cooktop isn't working. This was a major purchase and I'm feeling very unsure about it at the moment.
