My microwave cuts in at any time and starts running.

It cuts in and starts running anytime. It also at times asks for "set remind time". I cannot remove this. I have unplugged it hoping this would reset it but it doesn't make a difference. It gets really hot when it cuts in all the time and I'm scared it will start a fire. The beeper, beeps constantly with different messages. What can I do with this because I have to unplug it when it is not in use.

If I were you, I'd cut power to the Microwave ASAP and get rid of it. Very dangerous.

If it were me I would toss it as these things tend to kill people while doing repairs. I seldom recommend tossing something but microwave are just to dangerous for me to recommend working on.

Hi Audrey, This is Vikki with GE. Please stop using the microwave and disconnect power to it immediately. You can do this by turning off the circuit breaker or by pulling the power cord whichever is easiest. Please email the details of your situation including the model and serial number to us at eResponse@ge.com and we'll look into this situation for you.
