The same happened to a friend - her Sony TV died after only 5 years too
I remember having a Panasonic TV and that sucker lasted me 20 years before finally dying |
V, we had a big screen from them and it ran into some issues as well. I think that with all the technology changes for these newer HD tvs that is why all the issues. But hon you have to know Murphy's Law..once the warranty is getting set to expire then is when the tv will act up. I think for any new tv (HD, DLP) you should definitely take that warranty.
The best way to get the tv fixed is by a local repairman. If you use their authorized repair shops them bastards ring your neck and rip you off so bad.
The old tvs are the best...tube is the only tv that lasts forever and forever.
