  My grill I purchased from this company is broken and should be under warranty. I sat on the phone for well over an hour with a technician and the technician ended up getting me electrocuted by the grill. The person on the phone mislead me and wasted my time also with getting me severely injured in the process. I want my product replaced by traeger

  Extremely Disappointed – $500 Smoker Failed After Just 5 Uses
  
  I’m incredibly frustrated and disappointed with my experience with Traeger. I spent $500 on one of your smokers after doing careful research and choosing your brand for its reputation. Sadly, the product completely failed me — and not after years of use, but after just five uses.
  
  When the smoker stopped working, I called your customer service team multiple times. I followed your step-by-step troubleshooting instructions to the letter. I invested more than 12 hours of my own time disassembling, checking connections, and trying every fix suggested. Eventually, Traeger sent me a new control panel and additional replacement parts, but even those didn’t solve the problem. The smoker is still dead. And the “solution” they offer only creates more work for me.
  
  This has been a huge waste of time, money, and energy. I purchased this grill based on trust in your brand — and now I feel completely let down. The product didn’t last, the replacement parts didn’t help, and I’ve received no resolution beyond wasted effort.
  
  For a premium product from a premium company, this is unacceptable. I expected better, and I’ll be sure to share this experience with others so they can avoid the same costly mistake. Clearly, we have a lemon here- this is a brand new grill that DOES NOT WORK.

  Mr. ****** - 

  Thank you so much for the feedback. I see that on your latest call with the team we assisted you with a HBA replacement, which is essentially providing you with a brand new 'brain' to the grill. This will resolve your concern as we are replacing all of the internals of the grill, ensuring that everything will be in functioning order. If for whatever reason you continue to see this concern or the HBA does not resolve it, our team will be eager to hear about it and ensure we can get you taken care of. 

  Please let us know if we can do anything else for you once you have received the replacement part and had it installed. 

  We hope you have a great Wednesday.

  Ever since I have purchased this grill, the make now feature on the app has not worked correctly. This business has been contacted MANY MANY times over the past couple years, always promising to be "working on a fix" and that "I will be the first to know when there is a fix". After years it has become very clear to me that the business has no true intent or will to actually come up with a fix. Since this issue has been reported well within the warranty period, I would like my money back on my purchase.

  Mr. ******* - 

  We appreciate your continued feedback. Although this is something our team is working on resolving, we do not have an exact resolution date at this time. As mentioned on our phone call, once we receive a copy of the receipt we can process through the grill pickup and then the refund. 

  We hope you have a great Tuesday.

  I have called Traeger Pellet Grills customer service over a dozen times since September of 2023. My Smoker, Pro 575, has had more control panels replaced and other parts replaced than normal. Can't use it due the problems it has. Almost all parts have been replaced and still have issues. I spent 800 dollars on an unreliable product.

  Mr. ****** - 

  It was great speaking with you today and ensuring I was able to capture all of your feedback. We have processed a replacement ****** Burner Assembly for your grill, to ensure that we can get you back to cooking as quickly as possible. Please let us know if you have any further questions, or there is anything else that our team can assist you with. 

  We hope you have a great Monday, and are able to get back to cooking as soon as this arrives.

  I have filed a warranty claim and replaced every part on the grill. They still claim the need to send more part prior to replacing the grill. This is false advertisement as I bought the grill woth the warranty so that I would not have to deal with these issues. The grill should be replaced of it is faulty and the client has made attempts totaling more that 2 months of their time to fix it. As a women when I spoke the their representatives they were literally laughing at me.

  I've been trying to get my grill fixed for 4 months now. I'm not sure if I got a lemon or what but the controller board has been changed twice now, the knob once, and i'm still having temperature swings. So much so that so many pellets came out that temperature just kept rising while I was cooking. This caused my food to burn and the food actually caught on fire. Customer service just keeps trying to "troubleshoot" but nothing has actually corrected it. The most recent call got disconnected and the agent never called me back. They don't stand behind their products. This is very disheartening on a grill that was over $1000. I no longer want to use this grill as i'm afraid of it catching fire again. Thats a lot of money down the drain as I have to toss this thing out. I'd like Traeger to take ownership and replace this with a different model as clearly this one isn't cutting it.

  The person calling to assist doesn’t leave a direct number unfortunately and has me contact general support. Then I’m told we need to restart all the troubleshooting steps which I’ve done numerous times since opening my case back in December. It’s an endless loop they never gets anything solved. For such an expensive grill you’d think they’d solve problems fast. It’s time for y’all to replace this grill.

  Traeger has no respect for their customers or their time. They have no idea what’s wrong with the grill and they keep having me swap out parts. Every time they say It’ll work after that. I’ve now changed knobs, two controllers, and now I’m having to change the hopper and more. Every time I have to change parts this is time out of my day and the issue still happens. I can’t trust this grill to not catch fire so I can’t walk away from it. Which is the point of a Traeger is to set the temp and let it cook without having to hover over it. The agent they had me talk to on the phone had no idea on my case and had to keep putting me on hold. We did another video chat with the grill that served no purpose aside from proving that it wasn’t a grease fire. Which I already told them. I was previously told the hopper was working just fine. Now they want me to spend my time swapping it out. They don’t know what’s wrong with the thing and instead of just replacing it or forget it, give me my money back and I’ll throw the thing away, they said we’ll keep wasting your time swapping parts out while we pray you’ll give up and stop trying to get it fixed.

  Ms. ******** - 

  The part we have processed for you is essentially a grill replacement without the frame of the grill, you will have brand new internals that should provide you with a fully functioning product. If that is not the case, please reach out to us at 1-800-TRAEGER and we will ensure we get you taken care of. 

  Have a great Monday.

  1. Date of purchase 1/17/25
  2. $4817.10
  3. This is a purchase of a Timberline XL pellet grill. The grill has never worked. It has never been used and will not even power on. When we called in, we were told it needed new wiring to the control box. My husband has a bad back and cannot do this repair. Traeger needs to make this right and send us a grill that works for the price we paid. It's a defective grill. We were sent a bunch of wires. We are not electricians or work on electronic components and do not know how to rewire a top of the line Traeger grill and shouldn't have to since it's brand new, hasn't even been fired up and is defective.

  3 weeks ago I purchased a Treagor Pro 34 Grill new.Upon using the grill in the smoke mode it seems to cook briskets on the edges into rock hard rawhide.I checked the paperwork I had on the grill had no manual but after getting a manual from Treagor it fails to explain the smoke mode on the temp control ******** now seems that they are telling people that this smoke mode on the temp panel is for starting the grill not a cook mode.The manual after spending $700 on the grill should have operating instructions After spending $200 on briskets each one was destroyed in the grill due to this smoke mode and now any temp mode causes the temp to vary on its own during use going from ****** degrees, it appears to be a defective temp control panel.After contacting Treagor several times they tell you you dont have a smoke mode on your grill, Im looking right at it and tried using it, Treagor insisted on the fact that its normal and a different one stated its due to seasoning etc After today, I did another run on the grill just testing and trying to confirm the problem, the temp shot up to over 475 degrees on the 180 setting showing that the control panel is defective and Traeger still refuses to replace this $50 part after I have spent $700 on this ******** appears that Treagor is refusing to warranty their defective item they sold

  Thank you for the feedback regarding your experience. Our team is happy to ensure you have a working grill - per the last phone call you had with our corporate team, we advised that if the controller was indeed faulty we would be happy to replace it after troubleshooting, and have it to you before the end of the week. You were also offered a resolution in the form of a full refund to ensure that you have a product you enjoy, which you declined to both. 

  If there is anything our team can do to better assist you and ensure you have a fully functioning grill, feel free to reach out at 1-800-TRAEGER or chat in with the team for assistance.

  I am rejecting this response because:
  

  Its obvious that Traeger is making up excuses.

  I keep recorded records of every contract with Traeger recording of all phone calls and printed online contacts etc.

  I have been through this troubleshooting via camera contact while they see the troubleshooting as they walk me through it such as with the yelp setting at 180 shot up to over 400 etc

  I can not stand outside pointing a cell phone camera at the grill while they troubleshoot in the cold, we have done this 2 times and as a 100% disabled vet the cold is a problem for me

  I have not asked for a refund what I asked them for was to replace the part, that I will have to install or

  Refund the price or

  Replace the grill

  I thought or would think Traeger would send the part and I have offered to return the defective part, but all I get is excuses and them making up lies etc

We know your time is valuable and want to prevent you taking apart the grill and replacing a part that is not failing and essentially will give you the same cook results.

  TRAEGER 570 PRO GRILL does not work. First Traeger grill had problems similar to those described below. After many hour & significant aggravation, Traeger replaced grill. New grill worked for about 2 months. New grill had similar problems of replaced grill-- would not ignite. On 1/3/2024, I spoke with Traeger representative Christopher for about an hour to fix grill. Christopher said grill required auger motor & igniter required replacement, there were no Traeger repair contractors in the area & that I would need to install the replacement parts. I said I'm 82 years old & would be unable to install replacement parts. Supervisor Albert interceded & said that matter had been escalated to Solution Team which would contact me in 48 hours. I said I would accept their call. Albert called & said I had 2 options: Either file a legal complaint or a BBB Complaint in which case the Solution team would be activated or accept the parts & install them. I'm 82 years old & feel that I been taken advantage by Traeger.
