Why it was recalled

Advanced Catalyst Systems independently discovered that sustained strong winds blowing into the back scoop of the hood can force hot exhaust through the control panel and could cause it to overheat. If the front panel overheats, it can compromise the integrity of the gas valve assembly, which could cause a fire.

Official remedy

Stop using the grill and immediately contact Advanced Catalyst Systems, LLC to arrange to receive a free, consumer-installed safety retrofit kit. ACS has already notified known purchasers about this safety alert. All grills associated with this recall have been corrected.
