Ahaa! easy mistake. Report filed on Ripoff. Will campaign BBB
later.
When dealing with Traeger, I was not demanding a new grill, I was open
to their suggestions on resolving the problem. I would have
considered them covering, or sharing the cost of
disassembly,sandblast, refinishing and asembly, a partial; credit on a
replacement unit, or any other solution. Offering a $3.00 can of
spray paint was unacceptable. When George Costner (Traeger Pellet
Grills LLC) immediately drew a line in the sand, I expressed my
dissapointment and initiated sharing my experience. Maybe if they see
other correspondance they will reopen a dialog. Amazon and several
BBQ sites have my review.

I am not sure that the cost of litigation would pay off after attorney
fees, etc.
