Incident: Last May 2012 right after recieving our grill, it exploded in my face. It burnt half my hair, one eyebrow, and eyelashes on one eye. I checked all hook-ups and everything was normal. My husband had it happen to him twice since then, but was not injured. I checked online to see if anyone else had this problem, but there wasn't any information.
