Confirm these details on the official CPSC noticeWhy it was recalled
If moisture gets inside the temperature gauge, the glass cover on the gauge can break, posing a risk of injury to people nearby.
Incidents and injuries

Official remedy
Owners of the recalled grills will receive a free repair kit or replacement temperature gauge directly from the company. The repair kit will consist of a "Glass-Gard" protective film and instructions on how to place the film on the glass covering of the gauge. Testing confirms that the glass does not explode when the Glass-Gard is in place. Consumers should not use the grill until the Glass-Gard has been installed in accordance with the instructions.
