For the past month, Fox 23 Solving Problems reporter Emily Sinovic has been investigating a number of gas grill fires. Now, Emily tells us there has been a recall for one model of the perfect flame gas grill.
I've been looking into fires involving perfect flame grills, but this flyer is the only way I heard about the recall. I just happened to find this flyer posted on a desk at a Lowes store here in Tulsa.
It says theres been a safety recall for perfect flame model number
GAC3615, item number 271567.
About a month ago, Chris Jeffers in Tulsa, told me about his grill fire and said, The flames were leaping out the back of it up over the top of it.
Jeffers told us the manufacturer, Lucas Innovation, wanted to keep him quiet about the problem. Jeffers said, They were offering me a sum of money to take down my website and cease all complaints against them.
He didnt take the offer, and I didnt stop telling your stories.
Since then, Ive showed you the dozens of grill owners whove contacted me from across the country, all with the same story of their perfect flame grill bursting into flames.
The manufacturer also planned to send out letters to all grill owners with information about the recall. It warns, the cooking chamber of the grill can melt and/or ignite which poses a risk of fires and burn injuries to consumers. The letter also warned consumers to, stop using it immediately.

I thought this was a good way to get the word out about this recall and the dangers associated with these particular grills. It seems the word isn't going out very effectively from the manufacturer and Lowe's. :burn:
