Last time I bought replacement knobs (LG) from amazon. Take a look here Amazon com LRG30357ST knob. I hope this was helpful. cheers
Yes, email LGKNOBGOD at gmail com solid aluminum replacements, no cheap plastic.
I own an LG range and I came up with a solution along with a friend that has a manufacturing machine shop. www.lgknob.com
Not a cheap solution, but a permanent one that is solid aluminum.
I called LG and the price of replacement knobs are almost as much as what I paid for the stove.
If LG won't replace with new type with metal reinforcement, a quick, cheap method is to go to Home Depot and buy a 1/2" diameter aluminum tube (comes in 3 ft length). The internal diameter of the tube is approximately .40" (or 10mm) and fits almost perfectly over the protruding plastic fitting on the knob which slides onto the "D" shaped rod on the stove (this plastic piece is the part that always cracks - poorly designed, does not take in the torque stress). Cut a 1/4" (0.25") piece off the aluminum tube (you may need to chamfer the edges of this small piece of tube to help it slide over the plastic - especially if you use a tube cutter) and then press the aluminum tube piece over the protruging plastic fitting on the knob (you might need to use a hammer to gently persuade it on - or press against a block of wood). The aluminum tube piece fits very snuggly - no need to use any glue - and will reinforce the plastic, even with cracks, to form a nice tight fitting on the gas regulator rod. Lots better than spending $50+ (up to $127) for EACH knob.
I just called the LG customer service dept. at the number above and they are sending me a replacement set of knobs. The CS rep. said the knobs had been upgraded. Hope so! I bought all three appliances, range, refrig. and dishwasher in 2009 and have already replaced the entire motor in the dishwasher. Thank goodness for an extended warranty! Thanks for the info J. Kuykendall!!! ~cwylie

this happens usually when the oven door is left open during broiling. The new knobs now have a metal reinforcement for this. depending on the age of the unit you can call LG Electronics (800)243-0000 and they will send you new ones.

Found a simple fix. This works if the plastic stem is cracked but not broken. Slide a half-inch brass compression sleeve over the stem. It should be a slip or press fit. If the sleeve is too loose, one can squeeze the sleeve slightly to achieve a snug fit. A package of 5 or 6 sleeves are found in the plumbing section of a local hardware store. See the attached picture.
Here is the picture.
