Purchased it from Costco in mid Jul 2016. This is the 2nd time this happened after owning it for 3 weeks. Returning it back to Costco. It’s so dangerous that I will never buy Traeger again. I called customer service and I asked her if the pellet box will catch on fire and she said she the percentage is so low. Maybe 3 times out of 300. I said hell no. That’s way too many. BTW, I had to put the fire out with water. It got so hot that the metal tray wrap. I was smoking brisket and about 2 hours into the process, the temp continue to drop and I pulled out the brisket. I am in Calif with 70 degree weather so outside temp will not make the grill temp varied.
