I was auto light as normal on my Char-Broil bistro grill when a large brust of flames came out. The grilling area when into the air and my left air was burnt. After doing some research I saw the item had a recall. I submitted a request to repair the item.

Purchased a Master Forge 2-burner gas grill Model MFA350CNP at Lowe's in July 2011. Just noticed a gas leak from regulator (Chant AZF 1049 model) This regulator was the main factor in a recall of [REDACTED] gas grills but I haven't seen a recall of Master Forge models with this regulator. If the grill were used with this leak, it would almost certainly cause a fire and or explosion with no way to mitigate until it burned or blew itself out. the leak (regulator) is right next to the QCC coupling nut at the tank valve. I will be contacting the manufacturer for relief but the recall / warning initiated for [REDACTED] grills should be expanded to include all grills with this Chant series / date code regulator. Grill has been kept covered and is otherwise in great shape.

The connection between a Weber Platinum propane BBQ grill and a 20 pound propane tank failed. I have had 2 such failures this year. In each case the black plastic threaded connector, the nut that connects the supply hose to the tank, failed by cracking apart. I suspect a thermal expansion mismatch between the plastic and the brass parts on the tank. The BBQ is outside, mostly shaded and the connection is in the shade, but subject to daily temperature fluctuations. If you do not notice the crack and turn the tank on propane will leak out creating a fire hazard.

When turning on our grill instead of the flame coming out of the burners it instead came out of the knob on the front panel and flash burned my hand. This grill has already been recalled once, and we replaced the recalled burners and lid as required last year. I contacted the company and sent them pictures of the grill and they suggested that I clean the new burners that they had already sent me. Not sure how that is supposed to help.

Webber BBQ grill was being used to cook food when flame erupted from a burner control knob. The customer immediately shut off the propane tank and then blew out the flames. The fire resulted in the control knob being melted. This event could have easily resulted in burns to the fingers or hand.

The consumer indicates that as soon as she turned the grill on, it blew up in flames about a foot high. Her deck was scorched but thankfully the consumer was unharmed. The consumer immediately turned the gas off and it went out. The consumer contacted the manufacturer and explained the situation. The representative she spoke to requested photographs. After the photographs were reviewed, she was informed that they would not assist her in any way as the accident was her fault' apparently the consumer had to place the grill grates in the dishwasher so food debris would not accumulate. The consumer asked if the information that she was given was included in the Owner's Manual but she was informed that it is not. The consumer indicates that prior to the incident she would use the unit every other day during Summer.

On 9/29/18 i was grilling dinner on my Kenmore Elite 600 series grill. However the flames were really high on the 4 end burners & more so on the end then in the middle of the burner even when turning back to low. The next morning on 9/30/18 I cleaned the grill and notice the the firebox has a hole that rusted through right next to where you ignite the burner. I contacted Sears by phone and the said I would have to have a service man come and look at it but it would cost $99. The grill was purchased in 6/18/15 but we did not receive it until late July. I have the original packaging sticker and warranty that has 10/25 year warranty on parts. This stick said the firebox stated on sticker "porcelain coated firebox". The firebox should not wrought away. After getting service repair man from Sears, he came out on 9/30/18 to look at grill charge me $99 that had to be paid then and gave me estimate for $452 to repair firebox that they say is not covered. I did not repair and started investigating Kenmore Gas Elite grills on line and found that over 12-15 were in class action lawsuit that were handled by the [REDACTED] law firm and sears /kenmore had defective grills that caused firebox tray to corrode prematurely exposing the propane tank and hose connections to grills burners, potential creating a safety hazard. I have sent a report and filed a copy of my info to the lawfirm. In the suit on March 13, 2017 sears had to pay the cost for repairs and reimburse customers but not all the kenmore grills were recalled, This started back December 2015 the same year I purchased my grill. Sears knew or should have known that the grills are defective, not fit for their intended purpose, and unsafe to use as intended. Sears routing failed to repair grills when the firebox defect manifests, and that owners of the affected kenmore grills had to spend around 300 per repair. I had a gas oven blow up in my face over 15 years ago and had 1s

American Tool Exchange item 94002 portable butane stove was used as a camp stove. Have used previously without issue. On first use on recent camping trip the stove appeared to ignite normally and with frying pan in place suddenly was consumed in a ball of fire. Was able to unload fuel canister while burning. Stove is no longer usable. I disassembled pressure regulator and found a metal part that should have been attached to the rubber diaphragm became detached resulting in a large hole in the rubber diaphragm allowing butane to vent into the butane canister storage compartment.
