barbecue to cylinder connection, may have activated.
Is LP fuel low or empty?
Is fuel hose bent or kinked?

Did you use the snap igniter several times until the main
burner lit (See Lighting Instructions)?
Does the igniter work (Do you see a spark when you
repeatedly use the snap igniter?

Are the cooking grates and Flavorizer
coated with burned-on grease?
Is the bottom tray "dirty" and not allowing grease to flow
into catch pan?

The lid is porcelain enamel or stainless steel, not paint. It
cannot "peel". What you are seeing is baked on grease
that has turned to carbon and is flaking off.
THIS IS NOT A DEFECT.
Check the adjustment pin on the bottom of each door.
