I actually did this, but bad things didn't happen... I just popped the breaker. I was at a rental property I owned, and just pulled the stove out and plugged in to charge my car.
This is where I learned that many (most? all?) stove 14-50 outlets are wired up with 40 amp wiring and breakers. I've done the same thing (with the stove) at a friend's cottage, but now always lower the charging current to 32 amps or less.
That is exactly what I did this summer. Had to go get some new fuses for the stove breaker (is an old farmhouse with fuses rather than breakers) then I did exactly what you did .... Dialled down the current to about32 amps. I guess this thread answers my question indirectly. I bought the NEMA 14-30 adaptor before it became unavailable. It should work fine with the new UMC.
