Mine doesn't (1987).

I'll give my time-stop at five hours max with the method provided. I've
never tried further. It's an easy cook for a delightful result. If the
glass casserole and contents fits your roaster, go for it. You won't be
disappointed. Add sauce directly to the meat after cooking. It ain't
barbecue. Some ribs may appear to be partially soaking in fat/juice when
done. They're all good. Don't ever drain or even look for four hours.
Works every time. QED. blah, blah, blah. Not barbecue.
