Range is 3.5" off the wall - how much would it bother a tenant?

[Sam Leon]

I have a multi unit building and in one of the apartments that I am turning over the range would not back all the way to the wall.  Turned out the electrical box is about 1.5" too high for the range bottom recess for the bulky plug.

Lowering the receptacle box is possible, but involve quite a bit of work because it's an older building, I have to open up thick plastered wall, the receptacle which is a 4-11/16" box mounted on top of a 1" EMT conduit coming up through the concrete slab at the end of a 90 degree bend with #6 conductors inside that I can't seem to pull or push.

What do you think?  Would you just leave it like that and call it a day, or would you do the extra work to get it to push all the way in?  Or would you wait till it's occupied and see if the tenant complains?

From a practical stand point I could see where some like to put salt pepper spice on top but obviously it won't work because it will just keep falling off to the back.

It's a A- property in an A+ location.
