Is it safe to use a microwave that has pitting/burns to inside of oven d/t 
arcing from a metal rack that came with the appliance?

I am asking this question because I want to know if I can continue to use the 
microwave as described above or if it is unsafe and would send waves that 
would contaminate the food that I would then consume.
