Char-Broil Bistro Pro Electric Grills Recalled Due to Electric Shock Risk

Char-Broil has recalled certain Bistro Pro Electric Grills due to a potential electric shock hazard. The grounding wire for the grill's heating element can disconnect, which may compromise fault protection and expose users to electrical risk.
