I bought a Sony KDL 46XBR4 in January 2008. Recently, the LCD screen went out. I was advised of prior Sony problems with TV and their extension of warranty. I called Sony and they advised they would send someone out to repair at no cost. Days later, Sony called and advised that the part for the TV was no longer available and they would send me a refurbished TV with similar features with a 2 year warranty. I advised that old TV was mounted on wall and need to be professionally removed and reinstalled. Sony said this was my responsibility and I accepted. I was never told that the old and replacement TV"s were to be swapped.

Less than two years after purchasing a Sony Bravia 52BR 9 TV, the LCD panel went bad. Sony refuses to acknowledge this as a recall problem and read their script every time I called, which was maddening! I spent $2,200 on this TV which gave me 11 months of service. I finally gave up, which is what Sony wants all of us to do. I also found hundreds of postings on this same problem.

Well, here we go, I’ve read at least 100 complaints about this problem on a Sony Bravia KDL-40S4100, left side of screen has colors running through, making watching the set impossible. I have a case, I paid $120 for an authorized Sony repairman to come out and verify it"s the LCD panel. I’ve sent my pictures, proof of purchase receipt as well as the receipt proving I had an authorized repair shop diagnose the problem. No, I’m waiting for the 7 business days for what I know will be an offer to buy a discounted refurbished set for $800 or so. I know if this is the offer, I will be encouraging anyone I know to never deal with this company.

46" LCD TV is no longer working after just 3 years. The screen just started to go black. Now, only 1/3 of the screen is viewable. From the numerous complaints about this TV found on various websites, Sony has known about this issue for years. Their remedy, to force me to buy another one of their products! Why would I give them more money? There are hundreds of people in this situation. I"d like to look into a class action suit based on the sale of a product they knew to be poor. The number of folks out there with this problem should be enough for Sony to take action to make them whole again. Aren"t there lemon laws out there to protect us?

I had a 52" Sony WEGA LCD that got the blue haze in the middle of the screen after only a couple years of use. I thought it was an anomaly. My circa 2000 Sony TVs seemed bulletproof. I"ve learned that Sony"s quality has dwindled to being junk. Their broken-English customer service is reprehensible. Their warranty is garbage. I will never buy anything Sony again! I will inform anyone I can to never buy Sony and don"t expect Best Buy to stand behind, or even try to help their customers! Sony is garbage!Read full review

I bought a Sony Bravia 46 inch LCD TV model #KDL46S4100 from Best Buy 3 years and 2 months ago. The TV completely stopped working and Sony does not stand behind their product.

A 3 to 4 year old Sony TV KDL-46V5100 shouldn"t need a new panel that cost as much as the TV did in the first place. Picture was great, started with a red line on the left side. The next day, I had lines all over the screen. I took it to a repair shop. They told me TV isn"t worth fixing. 1,400 bucks down the drain. I always thought Sony was top of the line, not anymore. Junk is all they sell now. Shame on Sony, they have no class anymore.

I bought a new Sony Bravia KDL-52W3000 in April 2008. A few months ago, the left side of the screen started ghosting and the center was dark until it warmed up. At first, the warm up was 5 minutes. This became 25-30 minutes. Now, the left side is a mess. I had a repairman look at it and he said the LCD panel is defective and that lots of Sony Bravia models have the same issue. I paid a lot of money for this TV and expected more from a brand like Sony. Like others, never again! Sony should recall/replace these TVs. They know there is a problem with them.

Sony is lacking in quality and customer service. I wish I would have found this website prior to buying my Sony 52" LCD flat screen from Costco. I bought it in 2008. Problems started right after warranty ran out. Now, the TV is almost unwatchable. Sony customer service doesn"t care. I have been a long time Sony buyer because I thought they were higher quality. Never again!

We purchased a Sony Bravia 46" flat panel LCD TV in June 2008 (Model: KDL-46S4100). In February 2012, the right side of the screen started ghosting occasionally when we turned it on and then the center of the picture started appearing very dark. After about 1/2 hour, the problem resolves itself. Now, it is happening every time we turn on the TV.

Son Bravia 52 inch LCD TV Model-KDL-52VL150: Does anyone on this site know how to initiate a class action suit against Sony? I have been in touch with Sony Customer Relations several times regarding the failed panel on my TV purchased in August 2009. The picture is dark and blurry when turned on and I must leave it on for 30 minutes now before I turn it off and back on to reset.

My Sony KDL-52XBR6 TV has horizontal lines on the screen. The repairman said I needed a new LCD panel with the cost being over $3500. Sony said they would send me a refurbished one for $650 with a ninety-day guarantee. This TV costs over $4000 when new and is less than 3 years old. I think with a product this costly, it would last a lot longer than this.
