46" Vizio left side stays dark for about 45 minutes . Slapping the back of the TV corrects problem at first. Fade to black eventually moved to right side and even after several hours would not correct itself. Vizio unwilling to assist as TV exceeded warranty period. Problem unfortunately solved by purchasing a brand new LG 60" LED. I will never purchase another VIZIO product again. Extremely disappointed in VIZIO quality and customer service.
Had the same issue with my Vizio, left side top to bottom, bought it at Costco. My TV was still under warranty, the directed me to Vizio, which like some other reply's, asked me to send 3 pic's then call them,, Well turns out, they are sending me a new TV. They must have realized that too many people were complaining. They are also sending me pre-paid label to send it back in the box the new one will come in.. So, for $44.00, I purchased an extended warranty, it is for 4 years, after the 2 years it comes with... So, I would contact Vizio direct at 877-878-4946 Monday-Friday 8:00AM to 10:00PM CST and Saturday/Sunday 10:00AM to 6:00PM CST... They said I will have my NEW TV in 5 to 7 days..... .. My advice to all of you, is just to call, send the requested 3 pic's (they will send you a link), after you receive the conformation they received your pic's, which is right after up-load, call them asap... The whole process took 35 minuets,,,, Good luck
Happy Customer !!
