Hazard

The regulators on these gas grills, the components that control the amount of gas released to the burner, could leak gas when attached to certain liquid propane tanks. This poses a risk of fire and burn injuries.

Remedy

Consumers with grills that have the "GDA" regulator should contact Brinkmann to receive a free repair kit or replacement hose regulator assembly.

Incidents & injuries

The Brinkmann Corporation has received two reports of a small flame, reportedly due to gas leaking, at or near the propane cylinder. No injuries or property damage have been reported.
