Char-Broil Recalls Vertical Gas Smokers Due to Injury Hazard
In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, Char-Broil LLC, of Columbus, Ga., is voluntarily recalling about 18,450 Char-Broil vertical gas smokers. When the temperature setting is in "low," the smoker's hose/valve/regulator (HVR) assembly does not allow sufficient gas to flow, causing the flame to extinguish. Gas continues to flow and build up inside the smoker. If the smoker is reignited the build-up of propane gas can cause an explosion that bursts the smoker's door open, posing an injury hazard.
