The product, in the report: Traeger Tailgater Pellet Grill, Model number TFB30LVB
Traeger Tailgater Grill (TFB30LVB) catches fire. We have had a number of fires in this grill. The most recent was 16-April-2022. As instructed in the past the grill was thoroughly cleaned. 08-May-2022 the grill was started up for a test, without food, completely clean. Within 30 minutes there was a loud “pop” sound, an explosion inside the grill. The grill was shut down, allowed to cool, and again cleaned. I restarted the grill, this time with separate temperature sensors. First: the temperature readings by the built-in Traeger sensor were found to be wildly inaccurate, occasionally over 50 degrees off. Second: the temperature control was found to be erratic. Third: even with the grill set for a low temperature (225 degrees) the temperature soared past 500 degrees. Given these findings the cause of the fires and explosion are now clearly evident. The electronic controls are malfunctioning and the safety interlocks (if there are any) are not working.
