The FAA has grounded all Boeing 7-8-7 Dreamliners in the US until the company can prove it fixed battery problems.
The move came after more incidents where two airlines in Japan grounded the 787's because of similar issues.
The agency said battery failures caused some flammable material to leak.
The only US carrier that flies the planes is United Airlines.
