Wow. Samsung has a pretty deep hole to crawl out of now. Good.
At two years and ten days, a green line appeared on my Samsung LED TV last month. Costco doubles the manufacturer's warranty as part of their membership but my green line showed up ten days after. Online reports on repair sites say it's likely either the main board or the entire display panel that is bad. Last Samsung product I'll buy, ever.

Greg,
Bummer on the TV problem. Indeed it could be the main board or the display panel. It could also be in the cabling between them too, but that is probably less likely (worth checking if you haven't though). You could try Shopjimmy.com for a replacement board to see if you want to try to shotgun a part into it. May be a bit pricy for a whim though. The funny thing is that I have run nothing but Samsung computer monitors since about 1998 and they have been almost 100% perfect. I did repair two LCD's with fluorescent backlights, one was bad caps and the other had a bad inverter transformer. I have been looking at buying a new 4K TV and all I have looked at have been Samsung models. All brands will have occasional failures, not sure Samsung is worse then any of the rest. I wouldn't consider a Samsung appliance, or phone for that matter. Although the phone choice is because I don't want a phone running a 'free' OS... |

I don't think one pixel being bad would cause a line across the entire screen. My Panasonic plasma had one bad pixel fresh out-of-the-box, which has remained the same for the duration. It passed 14 years old two months ago. I can find the pixel if I look close on a blue or white screen but it's unnoticeable at normal viewing distance. |

Sam-Sung (he already had his turn) finished now. Go away, you're done!
Remember Yugo? Yugo went, a very long time ago and didn't come back. Hence, Samsung............bye bye
Ought to see behind our local Lowes Store. There are about 55 machines behind the store, and the sign reads "UNDER INVESTIGATION - NOT FOR SALE"
