Mitsubishi TVs and Electronics

I own 3 DLP TVs--60," 65," and the 73." The 73" has the dots so I know that I am in trouble. Please get this right. I have received no support from Mitsubishi. They are manufacturing defective TVs, for sure. Now, I have three TVs to worry about. Dummy me!

I purchased this TV new in October 2007. I replaced the bulb twice. Now it has white spots showing up all over the screen. Based upon the comments here, I will replace other than attempt to have it repaired.

I purchased a Mitsubitshi TV 65inch model WD65737 in July 2009. It now has white spots appearing on the screen, multiplying almost daily. My wife and I are retired and living on social security and cannot afford another TV or a very large repair bill. From reading all the complaints about this same problem from other Mitsibushi TV owners, I feel this is something the company should take care of. I am sure they know about this problem. I would appreciate any help or advice I can get.

I have the exact same problem as everyone else here. It's almost a pathetic and disappointing song and dance. I bought an expensive 73" Mitsubishi Diamond series TV in early 2008. I was very happy until bulb blew up like a gun shot. Replaced bulb and within two months, white and black spots covering the majority of the screen. Warranty is out--surprise! TV repairman says it is the DLP chip and I can order one online for about $250 and when it gets in he will charge me a $60 service fee and $150 hourly rate. I thought this was some rare occurrence until I started investigating and found hundreds, if not thousands of people with the exact same problem. If Mitsubishi knew about this problem with the chip, they should have fixed it. If they didn't, they have known about it since before I bought my TV obviously so that is extremely corrupt. I will join a class action suit also. This TV is very expensive--$4000 and is not disposable! Mitsubishi: do something about this! Never buy anything from Mitsubishi again.

I bought a Mitsubishi 73 inch TV and it lasted for a year then boom the light bulb blew up. I was never told about this problem when I was buying this TV. I paid over $3,000 for it. My other big screen I've had it for over 10 years and I have never had one problem. Anyways, a couple of months after I fixed the bulb, it started getting white dots everywhere. I thought that's weird, a TV that has a key selling point of a great picture have such a problem. It got so bad I can't even watch it anymore. So I tried to get a new one from Mitsubishi and they said that they could not sell me that part even though they showed it on the picture of parts. They were impossible to deal with. I can't believe a big name company like Mitsubishi would run their business like that, not to mention that some people have written on the internet that they got that same part for free. I will never buy anything from Mitsubishi ever again. Tell everyone you know about this. They are selling junk.

I paid $5,000 for a 73" TV from Leadbetter's TV in Maryville. It lasted 1 month. They sent it to a repair shop in Knoxville. They kept it one year, and could not fix it. Leadbetter's replaced it with one costing about $2,000, cheating us out of rest of the money. The original bulb in the 2nd TV sounded like it exploded. I replaced the bulb, and now have white spots all over the TV screen. Both of the TVs have made loud popping sounds all hours of the day and night, even after they have been off for 24 hours. Southern TV says it needs a light engine. It was burnt on its LCD prism.

I purchased a Mitsubishi (wd65737) from Paul's TV on 1/17/10. When they delivered the set and plugged it, it came on for a minute, and then shut itself down. The delivery guys (not from Paul's TV) said that every other set they tried to deliver did the same thing. 50% washout rate right there! They brought me another set two days later, and it worked. Fourteen months later, the new set started to do the same thing. I called Paul's TV only to be given Mitsubishi's complaint number, and a list of authorized repair shops. So far two shops have looked at it.

One could not fix it, and the other said they could for $650, had the TV for three months, but couldn't get the parts from Mitsubishi. I had two other shops refuse to even look at it, as they say Mitsubishi has become difficult, if not impossible to deal with. I am now in the process of dealing with yet another authorized Mitsubishi repair shop, who says they can fix it for $380. My problem is, do I sink another $380 into this TV, only to end up with pixel and lamp problems? I paid $1,440 for the set (I see them on sale now for $1100), so I really feel for those who spent thousands more than me, but I don't think $1,440 should be considered a disposable TV.

I owned three Mitsubishi TVs before this, and always considered them a top brand. I have an old projection, that has never had a problem. I believe that Mitsubishi has been dishonest in dumping these flawed sets onto the public, and would like to be added to the hundreds (thousands?), who would be part of a class action law suit. There must be at least one lawyer out there, that has bought one of these junk sets?

We purchased a Mitsubishi 60" WD60735 in 2008, and just a month ago, it began developing white spots and small black flecks on the screen as well. We have never had any problems with any other of our HD TV's (from other brands), and we have owned them for much longer! The white and black spots continue to multiply. We have put in a call to customer service at Mitsubishi, but from all we have been reading in the forums, we do not feel very hopeful for a satisfactory response from this company. For the money we spent on this TV, we should not be having these issues.

I bought my TV on February 9, 2011, thru Dell and it took me a month to even get the Mitsubishi TV customer service number. On March 2, 2011, I filed my first complaint. It took me until December 8, just to get them to send out a repair technician. Many parts later and terrible phone calls later, they are trying to replace my TV with their lowest model they make now. I understand it is bigger, but I live in a condo and don't need bigger.

Almost a year later, they are trying to make me pay to upgrade to a TV, equivalent to mine and I lost out on my extended warranty that I paid for and they want to do nothing for me. Within the first month, I wanted them to just take back the TV and give me my money, but no such luck. I really don't want to go through the problems that the rest of you are having and can not stand paying for something that I haven't been able to watch and don't even have right now to make a real expensive clothes hanger out of.

We have now replaced our lamp 6 times since we purchased in 2007. A year ago, the light engine was replaced and the color wheel. This was done after a month of describing our "lemon" 65-inch DLP's problems to Mitsubishi personnel. We sent our TV out to an electronics repair shop approved by Mitsubishi, but not us. We didn't get our TV back for almost 3 months. One month after the supposed repairs were done, we began to see wavy muted blotchy pictures. Mitsubishi said this was from a bad cable. None of my other TVs had this problem. This has never been resolved, we just couldn't wait on the phone for help or discussions for another month. Our bulb is out again! Mitsubishi knows fully well they have a problem product, as do the electronics stores that sell them. We have paid far too much money and time for this TV. We should get our money back, period!

About 4 years ago, my husband bought me a 60 inch Mitsubishi 1080P 57734 model TV as I had to have both hips replaced for a total of 13 surgeries and could do nothing but lay down and watch TV or read. I was not that into TV but you can't help noticing something that big. We bought the extended warranty. It's a good thing we did as the lamp blew out quite frequently. Sometimes it would just not turn back on and then other times it literally exploded like a gunshot.

We figured, oh well, we had paid thousands for it and still had to spend a couple hundred each time the lamp blew on average of a bulb every 6 to 8 months but I had gone from an active horsewoman and certified Master All Breed Pet Groomer to a cripple whose sanity pretty much depended on living life vicariously through this God awful machine. If not being able to walk isn't bad enough, you develop pneumonia because your body doesn't work any better than the TV does and when you come home from the hospital you turn the TV on and realize you now have a entire constellation or ten on the screen with more white dots aka stars appearing daily.

I looked up this unusual problem only to realize it is far from unusual and Mitsubishi has known about this for years. Not only have they known about it but they have managed to mass produce the faulty product and only repair a few of them here or there. Now I am normally a very tolerant person but under the circumstances I must admit I am severely angry about this and I find myself laying here squinting to see the TV through all the spots and wiping away the tears that could be from the depression this development with my TV is causing or it could just be from eye strain trying to watch it in this condition.

I cannot afford a new TV and can't afford to fix this one either. I know it may sound ridiculous to some people but I have come to rely on my TV for my soul source of a very limited life and enjoyment. I watch the news to keep current on world affairs. I watch horse shows and rodeos dreaming of a time gone by but by immersing yourself into the show you feel the horse under you again. You watch movies to steal away from the pain you are constantly in and when it hurts so bad your pain meds don't phase you and you can't sleep, there is always some kind of show you can turn on and concentrate on that instead of the agony your in.

Take away that escape and you might as well shoot me and get it over with. Mitsubishi I hope you make it right for all the people you have, are or will be ripping off. No one deserves to get taken the way you have been doing people when you used to have one of the best reputations for quality products there was. There are some people who will file their complaints, buy different TVs and go on with life with anger in their hearts and lighter pocketbooks and bank accounts. Then there are the people like me, the ones whose televisions are such a vital part of their life that it is a medical necessity to help get you from one day to the next.

I'm not throwing a pity party. In fact quite the opposite. I'm tired of dealing with repairmen, parts companies and the constant cost that I just can't afford to keep putting into an obviously malfunction product that just keeps getting worse. I and others like me, have to spend our limited funds on hospitals and medicines. Can a television be classified as a needed medication? Nope, but I bet you didn't think about that when you gladly marketed a product long over due for a recall. I hope all the peoples voices finally fall on priorly deaf ears and you do the right thing and at least replace the problem that is the cause of the TVs going out permanently premature.

It'd be heavenly if you replaced the TVs that you know have multiple problems. I hope you at least consider everything everyone's said and if a lawsuit is filed, I hope to be around to be included in it. Please do the right thing..

I purchased the 65" Mitsubishi TV WD-C657 on 12/06/07 and also purchased the 24-month on site service plan for an extra $210.99.This service plan would start after the Mitsubishi one-year warranty ended. 12/15/11 TV started with one white spot in the middle of the screen. One week later two more spots showed up within a 12-inch area in the center of the screen. Two weeks later the lamp goes out. Replaced the lamp and now I have a hole bunch of black spots all over the entire screen plus the white spots I had before. Great TV until it started going south. Hope that Mitsubishi stands behind their products and do the right thing.

I purchased the WD-73733 73 inch DLP 1080P TV and within 3 months, it has crashed and appears to be the lamp to start off with. It is ridiculous that I am even having to worry about this when it wasn't 3 months ago. It was a brand new addition and now, I'm facing dumping more money in a brand new TV. If any one is wanting to start a lawsuit, I've joined other sites that are trying to get one together and just wanting to put my story out there for strength and numbers. There is no way this many people have had this problem and they have done nothing about it. This is as bad as someone breaking into your house and stealing out of your wallet to me, only they did it with lies and a smile to my face.

I bought a 65 inch Mitsubishi about 4 years ago . I changed the bulb 3 times and now I have thousands of white dots. After reading all the complaints with the same problems, I also fell Mitsubishi should be held accountable and fix or replace the TVs . It's too many people with the same problem. It has to be a defect.

I purchased the 73" Mitsubishi Diamond TV when it first came out, and I paid $5,000 for it. The first 3 years I had the TV, it was fine. Then all of the sudden, it started turning off by itself randomly before it finally died. I didn't know what it was so I called the warranty service, they sent an authorized Mitsubishi TV repairman and he had no clue what was wrong with the TV. So, he wrote it off as a loss and suggested that I call the warranty service, and get my check to buy a new replacement TV.

From my understanding, in regards to the warranty, I was supposed to get the amount that I paid for the TV so that I can purchase another one. To my surprise, the warranty company wouldn't even give me $2,500 because of the depreciation of the TV.

Just out of curiosity, I thought I'll risk it and purchase a new bulb. I spent $200 for a new bulb and the TV turned back on. I was really happy until the bulb went out again just a little over a year later. This time, I was going to be smart and shop around for the bulb. I found one online for $89, I was happy to find one at that price. The bulb lasted no more than 3 weeks before it literally made a loud noise and blew-up while I was watching TV.

This time, I wasn't going to risk buying the bulb online again. So I went to Fry's Electronics and purchase the bulb there for $130. When I was there, I found out from the sales rep that there were two types of bulbs for this TV. One that was the "generic" brand and the other was the brand that Mitsubishi had recommended. Yes, the generic brand was cheaper all of them seem to be under $100. I told the sales rep at Fry's Electronic that I want the one that Mitsubishi recommended which was $180 at Fry's, but since they do price matching, I was able to get it for $130.

A couple of months later, I started noticing a couple of white dots and a couple of black dots. Then it just started multiplying, and it seems to be multiplying faster and faster. Now, more than 60% of my TV is covered by these dots. After reading everyone's complaints, it looks like I'll need a new bulb. Seriously, I don't want to spend another $100+ for another bulb for fear that it's only going to last a couple of months before it goes out again, or it started producing dots.

I used to love this TV and would highly recommend it. Now, I will never buy another Mitsubishi TV ever again.

I am looking for yet another lamp for my wd-65831. This is my fourth lamp in six years. I have not experienced any white spots yet. In reading other posts, I am afraid to buy another lamp because someone suggested that the spots show up after a lamp change. All the lamps that I have purchased cost me $249-279 and until now, I have had no white spots. I noticed that there are now replacement lamps for my model that cost $64. My question is "are these low cost lamps contributing to the proliferation of white spots showing up on TVs?"

Apparently, I have one of these Mitsubishi televisions that everyone else is having problems with. There should be something that we can all do. If the company knew that something was defective, then they should have notified all of us for a recall.

I purchased a Mitsubishi 73" DLP from Costco less than 3 years ago. Replaced the lamp several months back and soon after got my first white dot on the screen. As of today I have a couple dozen white dots and several dozen black specs (on white backgrounds) covering the screen. Mitsubishi will not sell light engines to anyone other than a recognized Mitsubishi service center, and they want more for that part than the value of the entire television. I will never purchase another Mitsubishi product ever again. $2000 televisions are not what I consider disposable products. Mitsubishi should be forced to replace all these defective DLP light engines!

I have a 65-inch Mitsubishi DLP, I recently changed the lamp and I have white spots on the screen, so far I have gotten one per day. The TV cost me almost $2000.00, I'm out of warranty but I still think we are getting ripped off. I had always believed Mitsubishi was a top of the line. I guess I was wrong. I'm also going to look into a lawsuit.

I bought a new Mitsubishi model WD62725 for $3599.00 in June 2005. On September 14, 2006 I had to replace the lamp. Since then I have had to replace the lamp four other times plus a number of calls regarding the TV just turning it self off for no reason. To date I have spent $2070.00 in repairs. Now our TV repair man indicated I need to spend another $724.00 to resolve other problems. I have a case number that has been opened for about two years, to no results. This TV has been a constant problem since I bought it. This TV was a problem from the date it was released. They new. The repair man said it was a problem also. Now Mitsubishi it telling me it is out of warranty and can only replace the parts that total to $300.00. Nothing but lip service. Please help me.

My 60" WD62528 has been giving me problems beginning of 2008 (2 years after I purchased it in 2006). I have had to replace the lamp, at my cost. The TV went to the shop 3 times. I cannot stop the worry if this television is going to come on or not. Today, it keeps freezing and turns itself off. This is the same problem I had before. I am sick and tired of this TV. I have spent over $600.00 for repair.

I have a Mitsubishi wd65733 which is just 4 years old and has a complete summer night on whole right half of screen! It's unbearable to watch and definitely a known big problem! Just Google it! I contacted Mitsubishi back and forth for over a week now and was told for $105 a repairman would come out replace DMD chip for me! Don't believe I should have to pay anything especially after the first costumer service rep told me this was a problem they were aware of and he would file claim. So anyway they call me back week later to tell me they'd fixed it since I gave in for $105.

Called repair company while I hold for 20 minutes and come back to tell me I was quoted wrong price and would now be $150! I told them to have a supervisor call me back because that wasn't what we agreed to. I took upon myself to contact corporate in Ca, USA. I'm still awaiting a call back from there! Don't believe anyone should have to shell out even more money for something they realize was wrong with these chips when sold! A $200 plus TV should last longer than 4 years!

We have a 60" TV (model #WD-60737). It is less than 3 years old. We have replaced the lamp, which cost over $500.00. Now, we have white dots starting all over our TV screen. This is beyond poor quality. We are severely dissatisfied, and want to hear from you immediately. This needs to be recalled.

We have a 65 in 1080p that is not even four years old. Suddenly, these white dots have started showing up all over the screen. We spent good money on this television, and are not happy.

Horrible! I am still waiting to hear back from Mitsubishi. Let's get together and file a law suit. I paid $4,000 for a 73" TV four years ago. Then, it started getting white dots and started multiplying every day. As of today, we have at least three to four dozen dots all over the screen. According to the TV repair person, we need to replace the "Light Engine Assembly" which is going to cost around $1,225 plus tax for part and $350 for labor.

I had to put 1 star as couldn't put zero. We bought a 73787 DLP less than two years ago. I have changed the bulb already, now to have the TV stuck on welcome, with a perpetual blue screen. I tried contacting the reps, poor service. Hopefully, a class action suit will be initiated and people can be helped because the company sure isn't! Do not buy one! Don't say you weren't warned.

We bought the Mitsubishi 73-inch TV WD 73734 about 3 years ago and paid $4500.00 for the TV. The lamp had been replaced on 7-3-10, which my husband did by himself after purchasing the lamp from a Mitsubishi center. Don't pay someone to change it for you as they would charge $300.00 to change it. It took my husband about 15 min. to change it.

The bigger problem now is the spots are showing up all over our TV, there are white and black spots. Once they start, they just keep appearing every day. We are so upset and frustrated! We have learned it is the DMD chip that needs to be replaced. I am starting the process of contacting Mitsubishi to see if they will make good on it. No way this should be happening to these TV's after such a short time!

I purchased a 65 inch DLP HDTV from Costco in 2008. It is out of warranty. Now it has a multitude of white spots. Contact me if there is a class action or other type of lawsuit filed on this issue so I can join it.

I bought my 57" 3 years ago. I replaced the lamp twice and it's now full of white dots. Mitsubishi sent a tech to look at it and tried to stiff me with the service call! Finally, I got them to pay for that. Told me they'd take care of everything but now want me to pay for half of the labor! I told them (again) I am not putting another dime into this TV! They are supposed to call me back in a few days. Told them I am looking for class action suit. Is there one?

I purchased a 60 Mitsubishi DLP TV. All of a sudden, we had to replace the lamp; after replacing the lamp, I was so excited to be back using the TV. Then 1 day out the clear blue sky when I turned the TV off, there were these 2 little white dots on the screen. I didn't really think nothing of it; I kind of shrugged it off. The next day there were 5, then 7, then 9. Within weeks to a month, I have millions of white dots covering my entire TV (looks like the galaxy and gives me the creeps). I called Mitsubishi before the entire screen was covered when I noticed that more and more were covering the screen; they told me to unplug the cable box. I stated that there was no cable box plugged to the TV. I'm still waiting on a call back from Mitsubishi to tell me what the problem is. After reading all of the posts/complaints, it behooves me that Mitsubishi act as if this is their first time hearing of this problem when I called.

We have a 72 inch Mitsubishi DLP HDT that has dots all over the screen. I've also been calling and complaining to Mitsubishi for three month's and we have a warranty with them and all we've been getting is the run around we will never buy anything with the Mitsubishi name on it ever again!

As everyone else in this page, I'm sick and tired dealing with Mitsubishi TV. This problem is never going to go away, just want to include myself for a class action suit. The more we are, the more chances for our voices to be heard.

I purchased a DLP HDTV of theirs, almost 4 years ago. It's a WD-65733. It has been an awesome TV, flawless, until I replaced the bulb (with an OEM Philips unit). Then about a week later, a white spot showed up, and today another. By going with others' reviews, I read a lot of reviews, and it seems it starts happening a lot, right after a bulb changed. Is this a coincidence, or is the new bulb somehow causing the issue? If this problem isn't fixed easily, I will never buy Mitsubishi and/or DLP ever again. Like others here, if there is a class action suit, please contact me.

Since the first month, we had the 65 inch our screen would turn a shade of red green and a high pitched squeal would start, the screen would then become jumpy like a bad streaming video. They said that what I described has never happened with their TV but proceeded to tell me it was the color wheel, whatever that is. We absorbed a 50 dollar fee for shipping and the service guys could not find the problem but changed color wheel anyway.

On February 2012, our TV will be 2 years old. After servicing the problem, it didn't come back for 6 months. We thought it was fixed. Now, of course, we are out of warranty. This has been a nightmare and Mitsubishi doesn't want to even try to help. When I call them, we are not even in the records as having a issue. Plus, they said the problem I described isn't color wheel. They say no one has ever complained about what I described and tried to blame it on delivery guys assuming they may have dropped the TV or something, which in that case not their problem.

I want my TV to work or my money back. We have had a 65 inch TV for 1 year and 10 months and have used it for about 9 months. We watch a 35 inch in its place. I have recorded the problem so they could see what It's doing but they do not want the short video. Someone please help us, I feel completely robbed. They stooped 1,700 dollars from us, I should get more out of a TV than 9 months of turning it off for 1 hour and problem goes away for a day or so. This has been a nightmare and Mitsubishi has shown me they do not care.

I have been considering buying a Mitsubishi 92 inch DLP TV. If you purchase this or any other TV from Amazon and the re-seller is not listed as an authorized reseller, then Mitsubishi will not honor their product warranty. This is a direct quote from a customer service rep as of a few minutes ago. In addition, various resellers have indicated that Mitsubishi is playing hardball with regard to their MSRP. I have forwarded the details of all of this to the FTC. Considering the poor performance (with regard to reliability) of Mitsubishi TVs from personal experience and recent Consumer Reports, I believe that this info needs to be shared.

I bought a Mitsubishi 73-in TV, Model# WD-73736. I've had it since July 2009. I have white spots all over the screen. With all the complaints of the same problem, you would think Mitsubishi would be honorable to its customers who have spent hard earned money on their products take full responsibility for the obvious production of inferior parts. The claims of high quality and long life turned out to be the total opposite. Please contact me if anybody does a class action suit and hopefully Mitsubishi will soon make a responsible decision to replace these TVs.

There were white dots on TV after bulb replacement. Same problem as everyone. I was glad that I didn't have to throw away $300 for extended warranty. My bulb lasted 4 years, and now that I've replaced it, I noticed two white dots on the left side of my TV. I thought it was nothing, until the dots started adding up and most of the screen is covered with them. I'm glad I only bought one bulb and are now looking for a new TV. If there's a lawsuit out there, please include me.

Mitsubishi 57in Model WD-57733: I got this TV back in Sept 2008 at Circuit City who is now out of business in the Atlanta area. On Nov. 23, 2011, my husband heard a popping noise. The TV went dark, only producing sound. A local TV repairman came and replaced the light bulb at $259 that included labor and one bulb replacement. The week before Christmas 2011, the little dots/specs/stars everyone is talking about came to visit. I took someone's advice that posted a complaint on this website and called Mitsubishi and complained. I told them I knew it was the DMD chip because of this website. They have offered to send out a Mitsubishi authorized dealer in my area here in Georgia and my part of the tab is to pay $300.

I think that is decent considering that I do not have the original receipt and am out of warranty. I will let you know how it goes. Mitsubishi says to give them 48 hours to contact the local authorized dealer and provide them with an authorization number to pay for the other portion. Thank you all for your postings. If it were not for this website, I would have been totally ignorant as to what my recourse would have been, which is the only positive thing that came out of this example of a purchasing an inferior product.

Replaced bulb after 3 years of use. 2 weeks later, white dots began appearing on screen.

I bought a WD60735 in April 2009. Same problems as others with picture quality (i.e. white and black spots and lamps burning out well before their rated life). Mitsubishi offers no help in resolving these issues through their customer service. When the TV works it's fantastic; but like I said, it rarely works. If there is a class action suit started, I wish to be included in it, please!

Contacted Conn's to renew warranty 1 week after it expired. They said to contact Mitsubishi, we said, "never mind", after that being told. They were good to sell $3000. Mitsubishi HDTV in December 2007. We paid off bill in one year. Then they didn't want anything to do with us. Our TV had the bulb replaced after 1 yr. Now, it is Jan 1, 2012 and TV looks like it has the measles. Maybe 400 dots, this is not good. Help, please.

We have a 73 " model wd73837 and we're getting both white and black spots. It was purchased last 10/26/09.

I have a 65 inch replaced bulb twice. Now there are so many white dots I can barely watch it. It is only 4 years old. Mitsubishi says get a tech. Maybe we will help expensive TV. Would appreciated more support who knows what you are talking to and where they are.

I bought a Mitsubishi 62-in TV, serial# 101807 model#wd-65c9. I've had it since 2-26-11. I have white spots all over the screen. I've had a TV repair man charge me 95 dollars to tell me it will cost another 800 dollars to fix it. With all the complaints of the same problem, you would think Mitsubishi would be honorable to its customers who have spent hard earned money on there products.

I have the same complaint. After only two and a half years, I have spots all over my screen. This is ridiculous considering the initial investment. I watched this TV be advertised as the great alternative to much higher cost televisions on MSN shopping channel. The claims of high quality and long life turned out to be a load of crap. I will now begin the process of trying to get Mitsubishi to take responsibility for the obvious production of inferior parts. Please contact me if anybody does a class action suit and I will continue to share the information as to get them to make a responsible decision to replace these TVs.

I paid around $1800 in 2008 at BEST BUY for a Mitsubishi TV (model number wd65733). It has spots showing up all over the screen. I haven't been able to contact anyone from Mitsubishi about it. I think they should recall them but it's probably not going to happen. It's an $1800 ** going to be in dumpster soon.

WD-57831 Unit had been working great. I purchased it on the end of 2007. The lamp went out and I knew that replacing lamps would happen but well below their stated normal life span. Well now after a $100.00 service fee and two lamp replacements, I discovered that my light engine has also failed, $800.00 to replace. Not even four years and my repair costs are over $1,000.

I have a Mitsubishi WD65735. I purchased the TV brand new on December 28, 2008. It's now December 28, 2011 and the TV is exactly 3 years old. I just replaced the lamp for the first time in November 2011 and I was really pleased with the life of the original lamp. To my surprise, a week or so ago, I noticed a small white spot in the middle right on screen. I didn't think much of it at first, thought it was a possible broadcast issue with a movie we were watching. Today, I noticed another spot. The spots seem to show up when the screen changes frames and then disappear. Concerned, I started doing some research on the Internet for possible causes. I came across numerous reviews about the light engine failing in the television within 2 to 3 years of use. When the light engine begins to fail, you begin to see white and black spots on your TV screen.

I bought this TV for $1800.00 from Circuit City in 2008. The lamp was a little over $100.00 from ****. The whole purpose of buying this TV was to save money. I had it figured, that if I changed a lamp for a $100.00 once every 18 months I'd still be ahead compared to the pricey Plasma and LCD models of the same size. Now, it seems I bought a TV for $1800.00 that will not only need a new lamp occasionally but will undoubtedly need costly repairs every couple of years. I've been very happy with the TV up to this point and I hope Mitsubishi assumes responsibility for a defective light engine. After doing exhausting research on the matter and reading countless consumer complaint reviews about the same problem, I sincerely believe Mitsubishi should recall this specific light engine. It's obvious there's a problem with the light engine if it fails within 3 years. Before this problem occurred, I thought Mitsubishi sold quality products at a reasonable price. Now I'm not so sure.

The Mitsubishi WD-65736 purchased on Dec 8, 2010 began exhibiting white spots several months ago. Now it has about 100 white spots and many black spots too, due to the mirrors on the DLP chip failing and getting stuck in either the open or closed position. I paid $100 to have Mitsubishi's authorized technician to come out and tell me what I already knew. It needs a new DLP chip or a new light engine. Now I am waiting on Mitsubishi Consumer Relations to respond with a resolution. This appears to be a very widespread and common problem with poor quality, defective DLP chips. I expect a TV to last more than 2-1/2 years. If a class action is initiated, I want to know about it.

As many of you have experienced, there are problems that arise from these TVs. Here is my solution. If you do not get any satisfaction from the original seller, return it to them through the front window of their business. Guaranteed to get some notice from them. After the second or third TV that magically appears on there business premises, I guarantee they will be doing something for you. Worked great for me.

I bought a Mitsubishi 73" DLP model 73734 in August 2008. I have replaced the bulb 4 times within 3 years. I had an extended warranty that covered all but the cost of one bulb. Due to the bulbs not being readily available, (I assume because of the high demand for them) I had to purchase an off brand bulb at my expense or just go without TV for 4 weeks. It appears that I will have to shell out at least $250 a year for a new bulb from here on out as this seems to be the life span of them. The last bulb was replaced under warranty in August 2011, one day prior to the warranty expiring. Prior to this, I started to notice a couple of small white dots on the left side of the screen. I was told by the technician that a new bulb would remedy the problem as it was probably dust on the bulb. After installation, I did not watch TV for a few days and upon turning it on, realized that there were even more dots, both black and white. Now I have hundreds of dots that make it miserable to watch TV.

When I called the technician to complain about the dots, I was told that my warranty had expired and I would have to contact Mitsubishi for assistance, as it appeared to be the DMD Chip going out. I contacted Mitsubishi and was instructed to call an authorized service center for evaluation and fax the documents to them; more money out of my pocket ($90). Mitsubishi contacted me (after I initiated the call) a few days later and offered to pay $100 towards a $700 repair. What a crock. As if it's not bad enough that the cost of the bulbs are going to make the TV a bad purchase, but now such a huge expense with a 3-year old TV that will have no guarantee once fixed.

After reading all of the complaints posted here and on many other sites, I regret spending (and will continue to spend) my hard-earned money on such a substandard product. Every one of these TV should be recalled and Mitsubishi should be required to provide a quality replacement product that don't fail just as the warranty runs out. I am waiting on the "higher level" at Mitsubishi to call me as I refused their ridiculous offer of compromise. Buyer beware if considering a Mitsubishi product.

I purchased my 57" DLP 1080p WD57734 television approximately 3 years ago. I am beginning to get small white dots on the right side of the screen. I contacted the company who wants me to put out another $262.15 to have a service repair on the TV. They will cover the cost of the chip which runs anywhere from $150-250.00. This will "supposedly" fix the problem. If not, it will cost an additional $95.00 to have the service people come out to look at it again. I refuse to dump any more money into a TV that appears to have a manufacturing defect.

I purchased a new 65" Mitsubishi DLP in March 2009. It worked well but then we had to replace the bulb in April 2011. Now, we have the start of "white spot syndrome." It started with just a couple and within a few weeks, it is multiplying. I would like to be made aware of any further action to be taken to solve this issue. Mitsubishi should stand behind their product and try to salvage their reputation. Prior to this purchase, we believed that they made a reliable product. Now, question their integrity.

We have noticed about 20 white dots and even more black dots on our 65" Mitsubishi TV. We bought it from RCWileys in 2008. We have also had to replace 2 bulbs since we bought it. I think there are enough people having the same issue so we should have a class action lawsuit. I will never buy another Mitsubishi product.

I purchased my Mitsubishi DLP HD Model 57734 57-inch on 2/26/2008. We noticed the "white dot syndrome" about 6 months ago. I have contacted Mitsubishi and got the same response as everyone on this page, TV is out of warranty and I would be responsible for all replacement parts and labor.

I just wanted to say that if a class action lawsuit is filed, please notify me and I will be glad to join.

We bought our 53-inch Mitsubishi TV on 8/30/2005. We have just ordered our 6th bulb! The last one was ordered on 7/18/11. We feel that the least you could do is ship it overnight without charging $54 (that's what the phone rep said) for overnight. In fact, we should be compensated for having to put out that kind of money so often. The picture is very good and we're pleased with it otherwise. Thanks.

I have a 60" DLP with a failed DMD chip. There are white and black spots all over the screen. It seems this same chip (from TI) is being replaced by Samsung at no cost. Mitsubishi only replaces the chip if people scream loud enough but that shouldn't be necessary. This same chip is guaranteed for three years in their projectors. Why only one year in their TVs?

We purchased a 65-inch Mitsubishi DLP WD65833 from Toton's TV in 2008. Within 3 months, my first bulb went out. They explained this was very uncommon. Since then, I am on my sixth bulb in three years with no help from Toton's or Mitsubishi. I'm stuck this, the most I ever paid for any TV. Now. I too have a white dot on my screen. I will never buy anything from anyone who sells Mitsubishi products and would hope this government would take action against selling people ** like this.

Mitsubishi 57in Model WD-57733: I got this TV back in Sept. 2007. On Nov. 23, 2011, I noticed the TV was really dark and not so bright. I have 5-year warranty that includes one bulb replacement. The repair shop picked it up on Dec. 8, 2012 and only took them 2 days to get it back. The TV looked great for about a week on Dec. 19, 2012. Just out of the blue a white and black spot appeared on the center right hand corner. I am about to go back to the store and file another service request. I spoke to the repair shop and the lady told me this is a common problem with these TVs. The optical engine, which is tiny little mirrors, goes out. I have had zero issues with this TV for over 4 years. It goes into the shop for repairs on a lamp and now in less than 10 days there's another problem. Let see what the store reps say. My service contract better cover this.

I bought my Mitsubishi 65" DLP TV in Nov. 2010 and within 6 months we started having white dots on the screen. They sent a technician out and he had to replace the entire "brains" in the back. When I asked the tech, he said its about $1500. We only paid $750 for it new from Dell! Now I see they have sent me some extended warranty information. 3 years for something like $450, not sure what I should do. I sure wish I hadn't bought this TV! I wonder when this problem will happen again, heck we had only had it for 6 months!

I own a Mitsubishi DLP TV 57" that developed white dots like everyone else on this page. If you are reading these posting as you research your purchase of a TV, please look at another MFG. Do not buy anything Mitsubishi. As you read you will note a high dissatisfaction rate. You spend a lot of money for a TV set. You expect to have it more than 3 years, problem free, and a company that will back its product.

I have Mitsubishi DLP 73" TV, purchased in November 2007, which started developing white dots two weeks ago. They are growing exponentially, and covering the entire screen. I called Mitsubishi and was put on hold for a few minutes, and rep told me that an adviser would call me to discuss the problem.

suit.

As with many others on this posting, I purchased a 57" WD-57733 1080p DLP HDTV. I purchased this unit on 12/12/07 and it was delivered on 12/14/07. I purchased the unit from Mathis Brothers Furniture in Tulsa, OK along with a 3 year extended warranty. The literature that came with the extended service warranty states "Coverage under this plan is effective immediately upon the expiration of the shortest portion of the manufacturer's original written parts and labor warranty." Within the owner's guide, it states that both the embedded software and the lens have a one year period of warranty from the original purchase date.

As luck would have it, I got my first white dot or dead pixel as I have seen it called here. I initially tried a new lamp, which obviously did not rectify the situation. So, I researched and saw that it was going to be a $1300 fix. The problem now is that Mathis Brothers is telling me my warranty was for 3 years from date of purchase and not 3 years from the end of the one year manufacturer warranty. I am obviously not happy as this is a 4 year old TV. And a $1300 estimate to fix the problem is leading me to look into purchasing a new TV, as the repair cost is nearly the cost of a larger and newer unit.

My complaint is more geared towards Mathis Brothers, the seller of the unit, and their description of the extended warranty essentially not providing coverage according to the coverage listed within the actual service plan description. I am, however, very dissatisfied with Mitsubishi regarding this defect in a 4 year old television. In my mind, this is unacceptable and I cannot believe they are simply washing their hands off this defect. I will not buy another TV from Mitsubishi and I definitely will not purchase anything from Mathis Brothers Furniture in the future either.

Like everyone else on this page, I am having the problems with white and black specs showing up on the screen. I have model # 57733 HD/DLP Mitsubishi TV that was bought in 04/07. The original one that I purchased had overheating problems. The store I bought it from tried to fix it and finally gave this current model as a replacement. I am on my 3rd light bulb and get any satisfaction from Mitsubishi. Please include me in any litigation if action is taken.

Model: Mitsubishi 1080P 52-inch. There's a growing "infestation" of white spots after spending hundreds of dollars on replacing a bulb. The TV is not even 3 years old!

I purchased a Mitsubishi DLP TV about 3 years ago. Two weeks after, I replaced the bulb, the screen began to fill with with spots. About 2 per day, I now have about 38 and counting. I have to put my fairly new big screen TV out on the curb.

I also have white spots that increase with each passing day. My model is WD73735. From what I see in the growing complaints about this particular problem, I think a class action suit would be the only way to make Mitsubishi to fix their inferior televisions.

It all began with two white dots in the center of my screen. Right then I felt like this could potentially spread. As the days past, it had exponentially gotten worse. I am so upset by this. I can't afford big screen pieces of trash.

We have started having the same problem with "dead" pixels. We bought the TV at Costco in Sept 2007, model WD-C657. The problem started in November with one pixel, and is now up to four. I sent a complaint to Mitsubishi, and they said to get an estimate to repair, then call their 'out of warranty' department. The repairman is coming later this week. This is the first problem with the TV. It even has the original lamp. But, with a new DLP chip costing $300, or an entire Light Engine around $1,000, I am not too happy, specially when we had a Mitsubishi 45" rear-projection TV for over 12 years, with no problems.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out. Thankfully, it's still 'watchable', but from reading other comments, it seems like it's just a matter of time until it gets really bad. If a class-action suit is filed, I'm interested, considering this does not appear to be an isolated problem.

I purchased the set brand new from Merit TV. I was told that I would never need another TV because it was one of the best. Well, the set stopped working. There was no picture. The sound is good with these new TVs. Is it better to get a new one or have this one repaired? It's a 55-inch HD ready set. Please inform.

I have a 65" HD/DLP TV. Like most everyone else I had to replace a bulb early on at my own expense. That was almost 3 1/2 years ago. Since then, I've had pretty good luck with it. But, occasionally I'll get a message across the bottom of the screen that says it's "too hot and the TV will shut off in 1 minute" or something to that effect. It has actually shut off on occasion and I have to let it set for a short period of time before turning it back on.

However, if I see the message in time and cycle the unit on and off it solves the problem. Knock on wood. I have not experienced the issue with the dots appearing on the screen that almost everyone else has been saddled with. Within the last 3 months I have been having an issue that I didn't see in any of the complaints I read herein. One day, out of the blue, the volume on my set mysteriously just increased itself to maximum. The volume bar appeared on the screen and the bar slid from left to right on its own. The set would not respond to the remote control and the volume had to be reduced by hand.

Sometimes it worked the 1st time and others I had to adjust it several times by hand. Since then, it has progressed to the point that not only will the volume control not respond to the remote, but the on/off feature won't either. It's an intermittent problem with no rhyme or reason to when it works and when it doesn't. All other functions on the remote work fine. I've changed the batteries in the remote and contacted my cable company to see if it might be somehow connected to their equipment. They've run online diagnostics to test their equipment and everything on their end is functioning correctly.

Even when the volume/on-off issues occur, I have no problem changing channels or accessing channel guides with the remote. I talked to the sales folks at Best Buy to see if they'd heard of similar predicaments from other customers but they just looked at me and shrugged their shoulders. No help there. Anyone else ever experienced this issue? Resolution?

I purchased a Mitsubishi WD-65734 65" TV through Shop NBC in February 2008 and in March 2011, I started seeing a few small white dots on my TV. Then eventually, the whole TV was covered with white and dark dots. To my surprise, when I researched what could have been the problem, I noticed an overwhelming response of consumers who purchased this product had the same exact complaints. Mitsubishi, knew of their defected DMD engine light before selling this product to the buyers. They have not stood behind their product and are ripping customers off. I would like to be included in the class action suit when the decision becomes available. Thank you.

I bought 65" Mitsubishi 1080 HD TV at Circuit City in 2008. I also purchased the warranty. I have since replaced two bulbs and only one of which was under the warranty. Now, I have the infamous white dots appearing all over my screen. I have all my paperwork from when I bought the TV and I am going to take pictures. I want in on the lawsuit if it ever comes into play. I spent almost $2,000.00 and mine was a floor model so it was discounted. I haven't got my money's worth yet on this TV. I will never buy a Mitsubishi anything from now on.

My son and I both bought Mitsubishi TVs. We've both replaced the bulbs. Now we both have screens littered with white dots. It's sad when so many people can be ripped off.

White and black dots on screen, getting worse, if there is a class action suit, please include me.

I purchased 60-inch dlp about two years ago. Year one, the bulb went out. Six months later, I got a white dot on the screen. Now I have 70 white dots and in no time will have 1000. They need to recall these pieces of junk. It's absolutely miserable to watch now. I am now going to buy a new TV and it will not be a Mitsubishi. From now on I will be purchasing extended warranties, which is something I hate and very expensive. Recall!

We have a four-year-old Mitsubishi 65" 1080P DLP HDTV. We have owned Mitsubishi TVs for over 20 years and never had a problem until recently. We have started to notice white dots appearing in the middle of the television. Of course, we bought the extended warranty and it expired 4 months ago. I called several times to consumer affairs and was told that they would neither pay for anyone to come look at the TV and give a diagnosis nor would they pay for the repairs which will be around $1000.

There are many complaints regarding Mitsubishi on the Internet. They will not stand by their product, and I was asked to be on hold while the customer care representative talked to a supervisor, and then I was hung up on.

My husband and I purchased a 73-inch 1080p television in 2007. We started getting white dots all over the TV. I was hoping this TV was affected by a recall but apparently not! This is so frustrating. We spent over $4000! Obviously, Mitsubishi is not going to do anything about it. It saddens me to see all these comments and our hard earned money wasted. They don't stand behind their products! I will never ever buy a Mitsubishi anything again! I hope this problem will be resolved soon! Good luck to all of us.

I am extremely disappointed with Mitsubishi's customer service. Our television has a defective part (DMD chip) from the factory. This is a well known problem amongst these models. An authorized technician confirmed the malfunction. My wife called numerous times to rectify the situation. She is still waiting for a call from our "case adviser". They refused to pay for the part and labor. Do not buy Mitsubishi TVs. They won't stand behind their products, even when they know this is a factory issue. Spend your hard earned money elsewhere! $2,000.00 wasted.

Also purchased a 65" DLP Mitsubishi WD C657 TV from Costco in 1/2008. First bulb blew within 8 months of purchase and I tried to return at that point; however I was told it was still under warranty and just needed a bulb replacement. This was done at no cost to me. Since then, I have replaced bulb 2 additional times and the one I have now is ready to blow at $150 a pop. In the last couple of months, I noticed the white and black spots and now they are beginning to multiply on the screen as well.

I believe that Mitsubishi sold all of us a defective product and should be held accountable for repairs the same as recalled vehicles or other manufacturer liable for a defective product. I can't believe that they knowingly put defective parts in their TV's, but has anyone looked into when these products began to fail and they knew they theses TV's contained defective parts. Did they correct the issue in future models but continue to sell off the defective inventory? I have another DLP TV from Samsung which I purchased in 2003 and have never replaced the bulb and it has no spots.

I contacted Mitsubishi and they told me my TV was no longer under warranty so it's not their problem and gave me the names of 2 local technicians. They didn't even acknowledge that this was a known issue. Is anybody doing anything about this? What about Costco who sold these pieces of junk to their customers? Can't they make them stand behind this defective product?

There were little white and black dots.

Three years ago, my ex-husband and I bought a Mitsubishi 1080P 56 inches TV. I got the TV in the divorce and now I'm regretting it. I have replaced the bulb three times in three years and now I am noticing white dots all over the screen. I am a single mom with no job currently. I cannot afford to just go out and buy a new TV! Why won't Mitsubishi stand behind their products and do something about their issue?

I will never buy another projector TV or a Mitsubishi for that matter of fact!

I purchased one of these Mitsubishi projection TV's that I just found out are junk. I as well am having trouble with black and white dots, but after calling the tech line, they told me that they had never had this complaint before and pushed me off to a repair man list. I just read all these posts, and I find myself furious. I am in on that lawsuit. I purchased my TV at Coconis Furniture, and of course, it only had a one year warranty. I had a few dots at first, but now the whole screen is covered with dots. I have only had the TV for 2 years. That is too much money for two years of use, and not even two good years of use.

I purchased a Mitsubishi DLP TV 57" 3 years ago. I have replaced the lamp twice, and now I'm getting the white dots rapidly. Judging all the comments, there's a lot of disappointed folks, such as myself! Does anybody have a resolution?

Like everyone else, after we bought a 65" WD65733 we had to replace the lamp. We started having white and black spots within 2 months, after replacing the lamp (bought lamp through Amazon for $62.50). I do feel lucky that it took three years for the first lamp to go out, after seeing all the others that had problems right away after purchase. We love our TV and wish Mitsubishi would fix their problems with the TV, but it doesn't look like they will. We will not replace it with Mitsubishi.

I had a Mitsubishi Unitem 164 installed in my home on May 21, 2011. Two weeks after installation, it started shutting off with a loud pop. It sounded like a relay. I have since had six service calls and they have replaced every electronic component. It still has the same problem. On Wed. 11/23, they replaced the LCD module and now I have no TV at all. It goes black every three minutes and is like that for approx. one minute all day. Mitsubishi has just given me the runaround because it seems no one can make a decision about what to do. It's very frustrating to call them and get passed around from idiot to idiot.

I bought a Mitsubishi 60" WD60C9 DLP HDTV on 9-7-2009. In 2010, I had to replace a lamp assemble at my cost of $175. On 9-19-2011, white dots started appearing on the picture screen. Later, black dots appeared as well. Now there is over 500 dots. I contacted to where I bought the TV and they will not do anything about it.

After researching the internet and finding out that it is a DMD chip that has gone bad. Countless people have posted and commented on this same exact problem with Mitsubishi TV on several internet sites. Mitsubishi want the customer to pay a services fee before they will schedule an authorized repair to come out an evaluate the problem. Then, the customer has to pay for all cost of labor, repair and parts then prove it to Mitsubishi and than they may pay you back for only the part.

I am not going to go through that hassle for a defective TV that should have lasted longer than it has nor can I afford to pay out-of-pocket expense. Why pay for a repair and part to have the same thing happen again in 2 or 3 years? I have traced this problem through complaints on the internet all the way back to 2008. Mitsubishi are well aware of the problem with their TV's and are unwilling to satisfy their customers. A salesman told me today they have 2 of the same TV left in their store and are trying to get rid of them for a low price. If there is a lawsuit in the future against Mitsubishi, I am a willing victim that will participate. I have all my documents and dates.

We purchased a 57-inch Mitsubishi TV three and a half years ago. We had to replace the bulb about three or four months ago and white dots started appearing about two weeks ago. This is ridiculous. Mitsubishi wants me to take it, get a diagnosis and fax the information. Then, they will see what they can do. That's just a bunch of **. If there is a class action suit, count me in!

Mitsubishi WD-73736, 73-inch was purchased on July 2008. White dots have begun to appear on the screen since November 2011. My cost in July 2008 was $2578.88 from Electronics Expo on ****.

I bought a Mitsubishi WD-60737 in 2009. I thought it was a great deal. Within two months, I noticed a white dot, then another and another not long after my bulb went out. So I replaced it. It was good for a couple of months, then the bulb went out again. I replaced that one but two weeks later, that bulb went out. No response from customer service, I got a runaround. Mitsubishi is the worst. If there is a class action lawsuit, count me in.

I have a WD60737 from March 2009. Last month, it started developing white and black spots and a hazy mark around the periphery of the screen. I was wondering what this is, and it seems to be a big time defect on all these TVs that they sold at that time. The DMD chip is a problem where the mirrors seem to be stuck at an on or an off position, and the haze is caused by something in the engine. Their authorized repair tech come in, charged me $86.13 to see the set and gave a quote. I am working with the customer service at this moment, but I am not going to pay a single cent to get this fixed!

Mitsubishi needs to pay for these repairs, that is $1012 as quoted by the repair tech to replace the engine. Mitsubishi should step up to its name and get this fixed without charging the customer, irrespective of the warranty. A TV should not get spoiled in 2 years. I will follow up on this site (and other sites) based on Mitsubishi's response and manner in which they handle the complaints.

It started out with 2 white dots on our screen which was no big deal. However, now it has almost 50 and seems to be multiplying. After reading the reviews on the Mitsubishi DLP High Definition TVs, I am wondering if I got a bad deal! I called consumer affairs and they told me to have a tech come out and diagnose the problem and fax it to them, and they would see what they could do. If this is a known problem and it obviously is, then why don't Mitsubishi just have a recall on these TVs and fix the problem?

I currently own a 3 year old a Mitsubishi 73-inch, 1080P, purchased in January 2008. Six months ago, a small black dot appeared, and now the screen is working on it's fourth spot. After reading these complaints, I am afraid of what I have to look forward to (If I had known this was going to happen, I never would've made the investment of $3,700.00). I was going to call Mitsubishi, but why bother, only to get the response (run around) everyone on this web site has received. I see I am just another victim. I highly agree that no one should purchase anything from Mitsubishi. Please contact me if a class action suit materializes.

My WD-73734 2007 model developed white spots. I guess I finally joined the rest of the junk TV crowd. The light engine replacement will cost 1000 bucks. Mine will be hung on a tree beside the road with. Don't buy Mitsubishi in big white letters on the screen.

I purchased wd65833 in 2008. I love my 65-inch but TV after replacing bulb, about 6 months later, I started getting the the dead cells . I'm so pissed after paying so much for their top of the line Diamond Sires TV and hearing of other consumer same problem and Mitsubishi's don't give a ** attitude. Count me in on that class suit action.

I bought my 65" Mitsubishi DLP back in 2007 and replaced the bulb about a year ago. My first white dot showed up on the screen in August of 2011. As of today, there are 100 plus and still more showing up each week. I have read the complaints online and the struggles with the poorly run Japanese company. I'm just going to sit back and wait on the lawsuit. There is no doubt that I will have to purchase another TV soon. And I will put the Mitsubishsi DLP piece of junk in storage to collect on the lawsuit later (it will happen)!

My now 3-year-old 55" Mitsubishi DLP television began developing 'white dot syndrome' about three months ago. Repair quotes to repair the TV amount to just under $750 with no guarantee that the new part will hold up for at least 3 more years. That cost is almost half of the original cost of the television. I considered myself a loyal Mitsubishi customer, having big screen TVs bearing their label for over 15 years. My contact with Mitsubishi has convinced me that they are not an honorable company and that they will not even admit that there is a defect.

They just lost one customer, who will now help spread the word about Mitsubishi's failure. There are good competitors out there and that is where I am going this week.

I have the same problem with white spots. I bought the TV at Costco in 2007. It is a WD C657. The problem started in early November and has gotten progressively worse.

I bought a WD73734 about 3 1/2 years ago. I already replaced a bulb about a year ago. Now, the white dots started appearing. I dread it taking over my TV. I haven't called in yet and I'm not too hopeful after reading all the reports. There should definitely be a class action! Terrible, just terrible.

I purchased a Mitsubishi 65-inch DLP on December 2008. About two months ago, a small black dot appeared and now my whole screen is covered. I called Mitsubishi who states that we need to get a diagnosis before anything can be considered. Don't purchase anything from Mitsubishi.

I bought a Mitsubishi 65-inch DLP TV December of last year. It had a lot of white dots. I was told by Mitsubishi to call a repairman.

I have a 65" DLP from Mitsubishi. I purchased this TV in 2007. I have replaced the lamp 3 times and now I have white dots on my screen. I paid $1599 for the TV on Black Friday of that year. I hope that Mitsubishi decides to keep some of their customers and take care of these problems for their customers.

I have a 60" Mitsubishi DLP TV for approximately 2.5 years when the white dots began to appear. It took a short time before the entire screen is filled with both white and black dots. The warranty has expired and they will not cover any parts or labor, which is exceeding $1,000. I cannot afford another TV and it should not be my responsibility when this is clearly a malfunction of Mitsubishi manufacturing.

My 65-inch Mitsubishi WD-65733 DLP TV starts showing white dots on the screen. A new dot appears every few days and is getting progressively worst. I called and check up about it and found it its a manufacture fault. Google it! If you have warranty, extend it.

The epidemic seems to happen right after the warranty expires and or after changing the lamp. I have been dealing, arguing over the phone for the past week, trying to get it resolved through the manufacture and it's a nightmare. It sucks because they know its their fault and it has happen to hundreds of people and their has not been any attempt to fix the problem. I have been on the phone back and forth for over two weeks and all day today and still they refuse to fix the problem. This is horrible that they know it's their defective part and yet the company wants to charge its customers for the repair.

I know I am not the only person that Mitsubishi has provided a defective product too. I spent over $2,700 for my television (73" DLP) a little over four (4) years ago. I purchased the television on 12/8/2007 for one white spot to appear on 4/2011 to nearly a thousand white spots to appear today. I've tried to negotiate with their customer service department but they will only paid for the initial service call and for the part (which probably cost them $5). They are refusing to pay for the installation of the part and expect me to pay $195.00.

I am really surprised that Mitsubishi does not back their product. Even if I was to have purchased the extended warranty, it would have well expired. With all the trouble that I've had trying to get Mitsubishi to pay for this defect, I am now having to make this public. I would like to start a class action and have Mitsubishi pay for everyone's television with the similar problem and/or reimburse the poor customers that were unfortunate to have to pay to get their televisions repaired.

If you are interested in a possible class action, please keep your repair bills, the purchase documents and any photographs that you can provide showing the white spots. If we get enough people, I will see if I can get my law office to have a nationwide recall on this manufacturer defect. Good luck with negotiating with Mitsubishi, they don't want to admit to the defect and they could care less about customer loyalty. You can also call Consumer Reports to indicate this problem and they will rank the television's performance. Thanks all.

If you all want to see what a $2,700 television looks like with white spots on the entire screen, I'll send pictures or watch Star Wars or Star Trek.

A textbook white/black dot syndrome is showing on my Mitsubishi WD57733. It is 3 years old and should have lasted longer. I'm trying to get a relief from Mitsubishi but not hopeful. Count me in if there's ever a class action suit.

I also purchased a Mitsubishi WD-C657 from Costco on 10/26/2007, for $1,799.99 + tax. I changed out the lamp 11/2010. In the beginning of September of this year, we got our first white dot. We were going out of state for a couple of months, and didn't have time before we left, to deal with it. Our daughter updated us, before returning home that, we had about 50-100 white dots at the end of October. I have just contacted Mitsubishi, have a case # and have sent in the proof of purchase, diagnostic, and estimate. Just waiting on resolution now. Definitely should have a class action suit for this issue.

Very poor, it has been the worst TV ever. I have replaced the bulb several times and now it has white spots all over the screen and is getting unwatchable. Why won't these guys fix this problem? If they don't offer to fix my TV, I will never buy any of their TV or other products.

I bought my TV about 3 years ago. Out of nowhere some permanent white dots appeared. These dots are always white regardless of what the picture is showing. Over time they have multiplied and now there are probably about a thousand of these small white dots on the screen; rendering the TV unwatchable.

I purchased a WD 57734 in 2007 and it worked properly for approximately 9 months. Then the screen would just cut out, go black and wouldn't power on for 30 minutes to an hour. I called Mitsubishi and got the run around. I replaced the bulb once already. TV is still powering off at will. Whenever the class action lawsuit commences, count me in.

My LCD went out after 2 years. I've been waiting for the parts to come in for 4 weeks. I have to pay for the service amounting to around $250. Now, I have no TV.

I purchased a WD-57734 in November 2007. I watch a fair amount of TV and have never replaced a bulb yet, but the notorious "white spots" have been spreading for the last six months now. My screen is almost completely filled. I was able to find the DMD chip online for $325 but I am hesitant to purchase. I fear that the repair may be beyond my level of expertise. Haven't any lawyers had a problem with their TV's yet? What does it take to get a class action suit going?

About 4 years ago, we purchased a WD 65733, from Best Buy. 2 years ago, we started having issues with the bulb. So, 2 bulbs later, we started seeing white dots. First 1, and now hundreds. Mitsubishi should be held to the same standards, as well as other companies, regarding these kinds of problems, and should be paying to have them fixed, not giving consumers the run around. A class action lawsuit should be filed!

I bought a 73" 1080p a little over 3 years ago. It was about 6 months ago when I had the lamp replaced. A month after that, a white spot showed up on my screen. Two months later, my whole screen is filled with them. I should have my TV fixed, replaced or my money back for the TV and the lamp I bought.

We bought a 65" DLP TV #WD-65733 about 3 years ago. We actually love the TV, but last year, the picture started looking less than perfect and finally, we turned it on and we had no picture. We were told when we bought it that these kind of TV's go through bulbs and we should expect to have to replace the bulb. So, we started looking up information on the bulbs and getting prices, etc. We finally got a new bulb, installed it and all was well again.

A few months later, we started seeing one white dot on the screen. At first we thought it was something on the screen, a piece of dust or something, but we realized it was inside the TV and we couldn't fix it. Our first dot actually stayed single for many weeks. A month ago or so we got the second dot, now there is a third. We feel grateful that we can still watch TV, but it's so irritating to see those dots. You have to work to keep yourself from focusing on them. After doing some research and seeing the problems everyone else has had, we're pretty ticked off and we are waiting for the multitude of dots to attack our TV, which we know will happen.

We haven't called Mitsubishi yet and may just wait for the class action law suit, which has to happen, I would think. If Samsung acknowledge the defective part and started fixing their TV's and Mitsubishi acknowledge they used the same part, I don't know how they could go on and not take responsibility for it and fix the TV's. If anyone has any information about a class action suit, please post it.

I feel conflicted because I love this TV and since they have fixed this problem, I probably would buy another one, only an 82" or 92" this time. I am very disappointed in how Mitsubishi is handling this situation, it is very discouraging. Most of us don't have a lot of money and we save or use tax returns or whatever to get a major purchase like this and we don't have unlimited funds to keep repairing it. To think that Mitsubishi knows they used a defective part and see them still making people get evaluations and go through all that they make them go through is very upsetting. I'm glad that we can still watch TV, but boy, I feel so bad for those of you who can't. I'd be so pissed if I had to watch my small TV right now, while this 65" is sitting unused.

I have a 56-inch Mitsubishi TV purchased in 2008. The bulb was changed 3 months ago. Since then, we have noticed a white dot of light shining through and now, another. It is so disappointing to read about all of these dying TVs and Mitsubishi does not have a recall or back up of their products. Come on now. Where is your integrity, Mitsubishi? I hope that you will demonstrate your decent conscience for all of these sales and production of a defective product, and remedy all of these faithful customers' complaints.

I bought a 57 inch TV from Mitsubishi and it's only 4 years old and have already had to replace the lamp 3 times now. I have white spots all over the screen. When I called to try to talk to Mitsubishi about the problem, they give you the run around and a bunch of excuses but not any kind of resolution. I know there are a lot of complaints with the same issues. Why isn't there something done with Mitsubishi? I will never buy another Mitsubishi product.

I have a Mitsubishi 57" HD TV which is four years old and now is covered with white spots. The cost to repair it is more than a new TV. I see this is a common issue and Mitsubishi knows about it.

I have white and black spots. The TV was 2 1/2 years old when it started. Three months later and I now have well over 200 spots.

I also bought my 65" Mitsubishi TV in 2008 and since then, I have replaced the lamp twice and recently had a few white spots on my TV. Over the course of the last 4 weeks, it has grown to thousands of white spots. I have been told by numerous sources that the problem is the DMD dlp chip.

I have contacted Mitsubishi and they won't acknowledge there is a mass problem with there DMD chips. They are a defective product and they don't even offer the chips for replacement. You have to buy the entire optical engine assembly which I was told was 1,014.00 with a 300 dollar core so 714.00 for a part they know is defective. A class action lawsuit needs to be filed against them because of this widespread issue.

I have a 65'' DLP I bought in January of 2008 for $1800. I have gone through 2 bulbs at $250 each and now, have white and black spots on the screen. This is unacceptable! I have seen on internet forums that this repair could cost an additional $700 and that Mitsubishi will do nothing to fix the problem! I will never buy another Mitsubishi product again and I will let my family and friends know that Mitsubishi's products and customer service are subpar.

I have a 65-inch TV LT-40133, which I bought in 2008. I had the bulb replaced about a year after I bought the television, and now I have white-and-black spots all over the TV. My warranty expired in March 26, 2011. After doing research and trying to get information on this matter, I found that there are plenty of consumers with the same problems, and with no resolve. I want to know if there is anyone out there that can help with this problem because I cannot afford to have this TV serviced and I can't afford to buy another television as I am now on a fixed income.

73" Mitsubishi TV model #73736 There are white dots all over screen. I talked to someone about fixing it. They told me to pay the labor and Mitsubishi will supply the part! "Labor is $250," the TV repair man said. I said, "okay." Then he said, " $95 for tech fee." What? It has been 2 weeks. I'm waiting to see if Mitsubishi will pay the tech fee. The repair shop said that Mitsubishi has not answered them back. It's a shame for a 3 year old $2500 TV and this isn't a recall! Can somebody let me know if I need to pay the whole thing? So I can get it fixed. Thanks.

We bought our 56" Mitsubishi TV almost three years ago. We have had to replace the light bulb and when it came back from repairs, we turned it on and there was this white dot on the screen. Weeks went by, we sent it back in because there was now about 80% of the screen that had these dots on it and the repairs will cost us $689 to fix. We already paid $190 for the light bulb. Our warranty was out. We now can not see a picture on the screen, only the top edge and right side edge. The rest of the screen is covered with white dots.

I've got white spots appearing on my TV. I spent 93 minutes waiting for a Mitsubishi customer service and I got no help.

I broke my 65" screen. I called Mitsubishi Customer support and told them that I needed a new screen.He said that they don't deal with consumers. So I bought what I thought was the screen from a company for $130+$160 shipping but, I only received the lens screen. I asked if I could get the smokey screen and the agent said that only a technician can do that and the screen has to be aligned.The technician just came and said he's affiliated with Mitsubishi and he can barely get things done through you. He said that there's nothing to put the screen in. He'd just have to ship the smokey screen to me and that I could replace it myself since he said that there's nothing to it.

I'd like to leave you with Mitsubishi as having the worst customer support I've ever seen.

I have a Mitsubishi 65-inch DLP purchased in 2009. We have gone through 3 bulbs in 2 years, and now, we have white spots on the screen. I have gotten no support from Mitsubishi customer service. Based on my research, this looks like a recall issue and the government is not supporting the consumers. Who do we contact to get Mitsubishi to take responsibility for such a large magnitude of an issue as this?

We bought our 56" Mitsubishi TV almost two years ago. We have had to replace the light bulb and when it came back from repairs, we turned it on and there was this white dot on the screen. Weeks went by, we sent it back in because there was now about 20% of the screen that had these dots on it and the repairs will cost us $689 to fix. We already paid $190 for the light bulb. Our warranty was out a few days before the problem started. We now can not see a picture on the screen, only the top edge and right side edge. The rest of the screen is covered with white dots.

I am a single mother and I am on a fixed income and there is no way possible for me to buy a new TV or even to pay to get it fixed. This is so unfair. We do not watch TV that much due to myself and my children being full time students. I am very disappointed and stressed about this. When we're at home, if there's something we like to do, it's to sit down and watch a movie together but now we can't even do that. The total of repairs would come out to be about what we paid for the TV in total. I bought the TV from Renta Center because that is the only way we can financially afford to buy anything. Please help.

I purchased a 57-inch DLP model 57733. I have never needed to replace the bulb. My issue with this TV is bigger than that. I bought this TV for $1,600.00 in 2007. I know have black and white spots all over the screen. It looks like a constellation of stars. Seriously, I can make out the big dipper. I called Mitsubishi and was told to have an approved tech diagnose the issue and send it to them so they can review and see if there is anything they will do. So they want me to pay $75.00 to get a diagnosis on an issue that they know is a known problem on the DLP TVs. For what? So they can come back and try to sell me another one for $500.00? I have a 27-inch Avast with a perfect picture in HD and it is still going strong from 2005. But my $1,600 DLP is now a giant piece of trash. These TVs need to be recalled.

In April 2009, we bought a Mitsubishi LCD flat panel HDTV for $3,303.00. Just last week, 2 1/2 years, a discolored section appeared on the left side. I contacted Mitsubishi, they have me the numbers of only two TV repair shops in my area that they would deal with to "diagnose and estimate" what was wrong. I had to pay $80.00 for a technician to tell me that a panel was going out and that Mitsubishi knows that they put faulty panels in these model of TVs! We did the process, answered questions and faxed proof of purchase with the diagnoses. Their response was: They will replace the panel which costs $1,892.00, but they want us to pay the labor of $225.00 more dollars and a reroute fee of $40.00! Which means, we have to pay out $365.00 of our own money to fix the problem that Mitsubishi knows exists! Don't buy a product from a company that knowingly has faulty parts and then wants the consumer to pay to fix it!

I purchased a 72" Mitsubishi DLP approximately two years ago from hhgregg. I began seeing dots on the screen that became so bad, it was no longer watchable. They sent someone out and told me it was the bulb. I assumed that it under was warranty but it cost me $600. A day later, the spots re-appeared. Now, they say that I need a processor engine (something to that effect) and I'm looking at approximately $2,000.

I have read the complaint files with the CAD but have not read anything regarding action against Mitsubishi. We are honest, hardworking people like you and when you pay $4,000 (2 months salary), I think it is a reasonable expectation that it will work or they will, at least, fix it. I now have a large box with over $5,000 that I have watched maybe 100 hours.

Does the consumer affairs division intend to do anything to assist the thousands of people who have purchased these lemons unknowingly? I can't help but to believe that they knew of this problem yet continued to sell the product. Just read your complaints. Selling a defective product with knowledge must be grounds for action against Mitsubishi Corp. and their associates.

I don't blame hhgregg unless I find out that they knew of the complaints prior to my purchasing this TV. Please respond with any information on ongoing investigations or course of action I can take. I have already tried Mitsubishi and I can tell you, I believe that they are so uncaring they will probably hang the phone up on me--even the CAD.

I've been experiencing the same thing that is happening to everyone else that purchased a Mitsubishi TV in the past three or four years. The problem of blown bulbs and tiny white dots that resemble a constellation appears to be a manufacturing flaw. A company this large and with such deep pockets should be responsible for replacement or repairs - although I've heard that repairs cannot be guaranteed. I will absolutely join a class action suit against this company. I will have to purchase another TV after paying almost $3,000 for this one. I can guarantee 100% that I will never again purchase another Mitsubishi product - it is wrong to deal with the American consumers this way.

After having lost my job in 2009, it is not in my budget to purchase another large TV (my Mitsubishi is 73") - heck, it's not in my budget to purchase any TV. Somehow, some way, I wish all owners could get together and file a class-action suit against Mitsubishi. Just in case this ever happens, make sure you take photos of your TV and retain any paperwork to prove ownership. I can't believe all these consumers will stand by and let Mitsubishi get away with this. I want my TV replaced and won't be happy until the company takes responsibility.

We bought a 65 inches Mitsubishi projection TV (WD-Y65) four years ago (2007), as well as the extended warranty. We have not had the issue with the bulb burning out, but we did have to replace the air flow sensor. This TV is not our primary TV, and we watch this TV very infrequently. It was used about four hours per week, and it went without being used for months at a time. One week after the warranty was up, the mother and memory boards went out. I called the Mitsubishi customer service for help, and they would not help me. I asked to talk with a supervisor/manager. I was told, "No", and they would tell me the same thing.

We spent over $2000 on a TV that now we will not fix because it is cheaper to buy new and we can get no help from the company. I am perplexed at the lack of customer service and care that this company has. I guess they do not want to stay in business, as we will never recommend this product or any other Mitsubishi product to anyone. We now have a $2000 useless piece of ** sitting in our house. We are so disappointed, upset and frustrated that we have no recourse against this company that sells crappy products and has even worse customer service. If anyone knows of a recall, please let me know. Thank you.

I purchased a Mitsubishi WD52525 52in and paid over $3000.00 cash, $300 for the stand, $60.00 for the surge protector and 'Best Buy' $480.00 3yr warranty through Sears.

Within 4 months, it needed a bulb replacement which I ordered and replaced. 5 months later, I replaced another bulb. It was like clockwork that we had to replace a bulb at least twice a year.

On the 3rd year, the whole front engine v26/vk26 had to be replaced. I bought the 2nd warranty, $350.00 for 1 year. I come home one day and nothing comes on and we find out the warranty had expired 2 days before. This TV was in a large, cool, well ventilated room. For what we had spent on this product and what we put into it trying to keep it working, we could have bought at least 3 large screen televisions. Consequently, we shoved it into an empty room as we were so sick of it. I bought a different brand that has worked great, and has a better picture. We will never buy another Mitsubishi product again. Not even 1/2 star.

I purchased a WD-65732 DLP Mitsubishi Television in June of 2008. Since then, I have had to replace two DLP lamps and now I have a screen full of white and black flickering spots that are basically rendering this TV useless. It's embarrassing watching, knowing it's a $3000 TV that I paid just 3 years ago. My 2001 Sony 25" has a better picture. I need this TV repaired or replaced. We don't have the money to throw around on new TVs. We purchased this TV to use for the next ten years. We budgeted replacing the DLP lamp every 3 years but we had to replace a lamp every 16 months. We don't watch the TV a lot. At the most, we log about 4 hours a day. We don't play video games on it, we watch regular high-def television and movies on the weekends.

I purchased a Mitsubishi 65" Full High Definition DLP in March of 2009 for my living room. This television cost a substantial amount of money, so when the lamp went out after minimal usage, I was unhappy. It's not even 3 years old and I only started to watch my Mitsubishi television consistently within the last 6 months. I am unsure how much it will cost for a new lamp, but by the look of this forum, it seems pricey and it seems as if their is some sort of problem with the electrical system. If this is the case, I should buy a new lamp and sell the system and count my losses. Like many others, I won't invest my money into Mitsubishi again.

I purchased 2 DLPs (WD-73927) at the same time and within a year, I lost the bulbs twice. I replaced the bulbs, but the picture began getting worse and worse. Only after it was too late, I found via internet search that they were having major issues with the light engine. I'm out about $12000 and have two huge pieces of junk.

I can't believe how accurate this forum is and it seems to be happening to all of us at the same time!

I have the Mitsubishi 65" WD65733 model and in just the last few days, 3 flickering white dots have appeared (and upon getting up close to the screen to inspect them, noticed several black ones, which don't really bother me all that much). Based on what I've read though, there doesn't seem to be much of a cheap fix.

Is buying a new bulb gonna make them go away, or is this just some unfixable problem?

Thanks for the feedback everyone!

We had a bad experience with this TV we put in the drive with a letter saying, "Free wind block." The model we bought was 52527. Never again will we purchase anything from this company again.

Just 12 months and 3 days after purchasing my 1080 HD 65 inch TV from Best Buy, I lost picture. I was told it was a bulb which was warranted for only 12 months. Bought another one for $300, and then it went out in 12 months, but in addition, the mother board went out and had to be replaced. Again within a year, another bulb had to be replaced, and here I am another year later with the same problem. It was a very expensive item, approximately $3,000 at purchase.

On Jan. 06, I purchased a WD-52725 52" DLP TV for $3200 plus $300 for stand, and then a warranty/power supply. Within 1 year, the quality of the picture had degraded by half. In the next year (Oct. 08), the bulb had to be replaced two times. And the chassis had to be rebuilt. We were without a TV for 2 months. From Oct. 08 to Sept. 11, the bulb had to be replaced 3 more times. And then it got the blinking green light of death rose, its ugly head. At that time, I was made aware that the TV was out of warranty, and they would only cover the parts (although the parts listed are only half of what's needed).

In 6 years of ownership and $800 in bulbs, plus the purchase prices, I have had a terrible, almost unwatchable TV that has died 2 times. I purchased this TV, and it's $4k out the door price. I have an expectation that the TV will last 12 years or so. I didn't make it half way without it dying 2 times, and making numerous purchases of light bulbs at my expense of course. This was the worst waste of money I've ever made in my life. I'm embarrassed and angry at the quality of the product and this corporation. They do not accept that they overcharged and provided a lackluster product to many.

WD-65734 65" DLP television is the worst product in the market. I will never buy another product with the name Mitsubishi on it.

I replaced several bulbs over the past three years and now, its out completely. With bulbs and TV, I am up to about $2500.00 now which averages to about $70 a month for use. It's a junk.

We purchased a Mitsubishi TV in 12/06, WD57732 serial # 115296 at American Superstores in Poplar Bluff Mo. We have had to replace the lamps in this TV, every nine months since we bought it. It had a recall after 9 months of owning it and now, the motherboard went bad and Mitsubishi doesn't make the part for it anymore. How in the world do people like myself pay 1,800 dollars for what is supposed to be a very good name brand TV and now have to throw it away after 5 years? This stinks. I will never, ever buy another Mitsubishi product again. We have regretted it since a month after we bought it. They do not stand behind their products and they aren't getting anymore money from this family. I hope something is done about their poor customer service. These TVs need to be recalled.

I purchased my 73" Mitsubishi TV about 3 years ago for $4,000. Recently, the bulb blew out and about a day or two later, white dots started to appear. We tried calling customer repair, and it's sad to say that they will not stand behind their product and wanted to charge me $950 for repairs. What a rip-off, especially since times are so damn hard. I hate Mitsubishi. It's trash. Then, I came to find out that the life expectancy on this particular TV is only 3 years. Wow.

I am going to join the hundreds, if not thousands, of unhappy customers of Mitsubishi. I bought a 65" 1080P and a year later, I blew my bulb. Six months later, I have 68 white dots and everyday, I get more. Has anyone had any luck resolving this problem or should I start buying a different TV brand?

The TV is an HDTV 65 inch Mitsubishi. After 3.5 years, it is developing white dots which are multiplying fast. It is almost unwatchable now, and within a few days will be useless.

Well after reading some of the complaints about this type of TV, I guess I was lucky. I bought my Mitsubishi 57 in. 1080p about 4 years ago. I just started having problems so I guess that is why i say I am lucky. However, first the TV color starts to look dull, then it starts to just shut off after being on for a few minutes. Now at this point, I'm not too upset because when I purchased this TV, the sales associate said it was a pretty good TV overall except after a few years the bulb will go bad and it could cost up to 300.00 to repair.

So, I got a bulb for $219.00. I'm happy now or so I thought so, until I find a small white dot in the center of the screen after about 2 weeks. Then there were about 5 or 6. Now there are too many to count. There are as many black dots as white dots now. So the TV repair man says it looks like an engine light problem and he will check and see how much it will cost. That's when i googled the problem and found all these other same exact complaints. I mean, really word for word, the others wrote the same thing I'm going through. I just called the repair man and said to just don't worry about trying to fix it because now I see this is just the beginning.

I am really disgusted that a company could actually sell such crap and get away with it without anything being done. What make it so bad was that I was only offered a 2 year warranty which makes no sense because they know they really don't start messing up til 3 years or so later.

I bought two DLP TVs, one is 60" and the other one is 65". The 65" went out 7 months after its purchase. I had sent in warranty card when it was purchased, so when I discovered it was the bulb, I sent the model serial no. and, again, the proof of purchase but I never got a bulb. So I bought a bulb from Amazon for $66.00, shipping and all. It had housing with it. It took about 5 minutes to replace. The warranty is no good. Mitsubishi should be sent back to Japan. Their products are no good and our consumer adv in Washington is not doing its job. I spent over $2,000.00 on these TV's. It is a ripoff of American people.

Do not buy Mitsubishi. I was a lifetime loyal Mitsubishi customer until I purchased a 46" LCD (LT-46133) in 2008. A year later, vertical lines began to appear on the screen and the set would shut off on its own after a few hours of viewing.

This is a well-known issue now and Mitsubishi still refuses to offer customers anything further than providing a replacement screen and forcing them to pay for labor ($350) to fix it, with no guarantee that it won't happen again. Mitsubishi televisions are junk and their customer service is aggravating to deal with. I've been dealing with this issue for more than two years now, with no help on the horizon.

The best I can do at this point is spread the word to help others avoid the mistake of doing business with Mitsubishi.

I bought a fifty-two inch TV. And this one is one of the worst TVs I ever bought. The repairs cost more than the TV. I have had been buying the same lamp twice. And it kept blowing inside the TV. I heard a lot of customers with the same complaint. The worst of all is that I still owe six hundred dollars on this TV. If someone knows about a solution, let me know.

On 2/28/2011, A2Z picked up my Mitsubishi WD62528 for repair with a written promise/estimate of 3-5 days and $80-$250.

Eight weeks later, I got the set back with a $600 bill for repairing an E2P board. The same problem re-occurred three days later. A2Z has had my set since May 2, 2011, apparently waiting for Mitsubishi to return the E2P board. I have asked for my set with the malfunctioning board back and a refund, but now neither A2Z nor Mitsubishi seems to know where the E2P board is.

I highly recommend this TV, if you never intend to turn it on! Once you do it's all downhill from there. The 65" DLP HDTV we purchased roughly 3.5 years ago is now a 65" paperweight. Before even a year was up we had the first lamp replaced. Now, on our third lamp, the little white dots began appearing. Just this week, the blower began making noise and now the set shuts off with blinking red indicator, requiring it to be reset only to have it happen again a few minutes later.

I didn't realize when I made this purchase that Mitsubishi was selling "disposable" televisions. I'm all for growing the economy but is this how it's done? Purposely produce a terrible product and market it as "the greatest thing since sliced bread" then not stand behind the product or acknowledge the issues or set things right for the consumer. Mitsubishi makes money, after market parts vendors make money, service companies make money, consumer gets **. Well done Mitsubishi. Can anyone say class-action lawsuit?

Thank you

Purchased our Mitsubishi 65" 1080P DLP High Definition Television at Cosco in 2007 and never even turned it on until months later. The television screen soon began to display small white spots, then black specks. Thera are now thousands of both and we cannot watch shows, movies, dvd's, etc. with dark backgrounds because of the overwhelming spots. There so many internet forums with hundreds of complaints regarding this issue. Mitsubishi is NOT standing behind its product. The repair costs surpass the cost of the television.

I purchased the Mitsubishi DLP WD-65733 Lamp TV from Best Buy with full understanding of how 'lamp life' is subject to flux. So, I also purchased the longest extended warranty available--four years--at a cost of almost one-third the cost of the TV.

After two years of having no problems nor complaints, the bulb went out. Completely understandable and expected. That's the main reason I purchased the longest extended warranty available. The technician (third-party contracted vendor), came to my house with a generic replacement. Unfortunately, it would not fit the Mitsubishi bulb chassis. So the technician had to order a factory replacement from Mitsubishi, replaced it, and everything worked fine...for only nine months.

Reluctantly, I paid for the bulb out of my pocket with verbal assurance from the technician that "this one will last longer. The other was probably defective." Afterwards, I felt confident that if any more problems were to arise with the bulb, the technician would understand that there is something else wrong to cause the bulbs to fail prematurely.

Now, here I am again with a blown bulb and everyone--from Best Buy to the third party vendor--told me, "You will be responsible for the cost of the bulb."

I don't think so!

When you take your car to a mechanic to have a water pump or alternator fixed, it's expected to work. If you have to have the same part replaced in only nine months, even a semi-competent mechanic will tell you something else is causing the problem. As an educated consumer, you understand that sometimes you have to go ahead and pay out of your pocket to have it fixed PROPERLY the second time. After that, if the same exact problem happens again, in the same approximate time frame, the mechanic, if reputable, would take a step back and admit that something was wrong with the previous parts, workmanship or a combination of these. That's how business works. So they tell us as they take our money.

Now, here I am again, nine months later (again), with both Best Buy and their third-party contractor telling me, "If its the bulb, its your dime."

So I am currently following their rules and having a technician come out to my house to try and tell me I will have to pay for another bulb, WITHOUT bothering to even check and see if there is an underlying problem. Honestly, I am hoping that common morals will rule the day. Unfortunately, I am sure that will not be the case.

Equally unfortunate for Mitsubishi Electronics USA, Best Buy, and their third-party repair vendor is the fact that I doubt/hope any judge residing over the case in small claims court will see the truths.

I have the same problem with other Mitsubishi projection TV owners (I think mine is 73"). I bought my TV, either in 2007 or 2008, for almost $4,000 and within 3 years, the bulb blew out. A month ago, we noticed a couple of white dots appeared on the screen. The numbers of dots are multiplying every time we turn on the TV. As of last night, June 24, 2011, there were about 30 dots on the screen.

After reading all the complaints about Mitsubishi TV, I don't want to waste my money to even have it diagnosed by a repair man.

I own a Mitsubishi 65" Projection TV that continues to blow bulbs and now has started to develop white dots. These dots only appear on the screen when it is turned on. The number of dots are multiplying every time I turn on the TV. I'm told that it is a light engine problem that will run approx. $800.00 dollars to replace.For the amount of money that a person spends on these big TV's I would expect that they would have some sort of lemon law like they do on automobiles. If they are going to put a product out on the market they (Mitsubishi) should at least recognize that there is a serious problem with the light engine and bulbs and recall or replace their products......After doing research this appears to be a very common and serious problem that needs to be fixed.

I'm a little sick over this. We bought a 65 in. Mitsubishi Rear Projection TV, model WD-65734 just a little over three years ago. I have had to replace the bulb "2 times." Several months ago I noticed a white spot appear, in the lower right hand portion of the screen, only when the TV is turned on. A few days later, a second spot appeared, now I have 1000+ and it is unwatchable.

I have researched online and found this to be a common problem with this model "obviously" a defect in design.

* it looks like this was/is a big problem with Samsung TVs- and in fact, Samsung fixed this for free. http://www.fixya.com/search/p619716-mitsubishi_wd_65733_65_in_hdtv_televisio/white_dots_tv_screen

*I find it very hard to believe that the life-span of this TV is 3 years.... I feel that it should last much much longer than that. I will be calling Mitsubishi this week but would love to know if anyone else has had to deal with this and what the outcome was. http://www.ihav.net/vb/eastern-imports/why-does-my-mitsubishi-wd-65733-tv-1233207.html

*Samsung had the "white dot" issue on one or two DLP models that were built during a certain time frame, I believe caused by a batch of bad DMD chips. They at first refused to fix those that were out of warranty, but later changed their minds and did so. The problem usually didn't show up until the TV was about 2 years old. All you had to do was call their customer service and say you have the "white dot" problem and they would ask a few questions about your model and symptoms, and then would schedule a repair for free. That is what I did with my mom's HLS DLP anyway. The repair didn't take very long and only involved replacing the smallish chip and not the whole light engine. Has worked great ever since. Maybe Mits builds theirs differently. The problem was actually white AND black dots, depending on which direction the mirror was stuck. The dots were about 1/8 inch diameter.

Any advice? We are of course out of warranty and from what I could find online, this is a very expensive fix which I will not pay for a 3-year-old TV.

I own a Mitsubishi WD-52631 DLP TV I bought back in 12/02/2007 and have had nothing but issues with bulb life. I have been through 6 bulbs in 4 years with it. The ballast board has been replaced; they replaced a thermo sensor. I complained to them last year about it and they agreed to replace the build and extend the warranty for one year but here we are again with a blown bulb. Now I understand that owning one of these TVs requires bulb replacement but 6 bulbs in 4 years is not acceptable when I know others with DLP TVs and some of them haven't changed their bulbs in years and their TV is on all the time. I just want the TV fixed properly or for it to be replaced.

I bought a Mitsubishi 65" DLP TV Model WD 65734 Serial Number 117158. This set only lasted a little over two years before the light engine/optical unit assembly block went bad. The symptoms were numerous. There were white and black dots on the screen. The number of dots just kept increasing. I'm told that the repair is about $1,000. It is not acceptable for a $1,700 TV to go bad after such a short time.

I have been using a Pajero GLS, 3.5 LWB M/L, 2010 model, for the last six months. Plate No. **. I find it to have very poor fuel efficiency at 16 to 26 ltrs/100km on an average use. The second service was completed last month and still there is no improvement. Kindly advice on what the present average is, common to all Pajeros? Is there any fine tuning required? How can I improve on fuel efficiency?

I bought a Mitsubishi High Definition Television about 3 years ago and so did my brother (Model # WD57831, Serial #**). We both have had to replace the bulb for the picture tube 3 times in this amount of time, at a cost of $300.00 a time. This is a bad product because all the websites that I went to, everyone has had the same problem with this TV and there is no way to contact Mitsubishi to try and clear this problem up even with all the attempts I have made and my brother.

I purchased my WD52725 from a local TV company called Sound Advice, the salesman said the lamps would have to be replaced in three years. We have had to replace this lamp 8 times since we bought it in November 11, 2004.

This product not only had a high price of $3500.00 but we have spent an average of $225.00 per lamp(8 = $1,800.00 after the purchase and many frustrating hours on the phone to a company and employees that was not concerned about helping us.) I have since learned that two other people we know that owned the same set had so many problems to include the lamps that he threw it into the trash rather than donate it to his church.

The clear coat on my 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor is rapidly detraining. I have lived in AZ all my life and have owned several used cars much older than 6 years. This is my first new car and I never had a problem with the paint such as this. I need to find out if the manufacturer has a recall.

I have a 2005 Mitsubishi Endeavor with its $69,000 transmission gone. My problem started when I tried to back out of my driveway and experienced difficulty going from reverse to drive. I took the vehicle to the Nationwide Transmission thinking that it was problem a linkage problem. To my surprise, I was told that my transmission was gone. The repairman was stumped because he could not understand why my transmission was gone with only $69,000.00 plus miles and plenty enough transmission oil in the vehicle. Nationwide wanted $2500.00 to repair the vehicle. I then called around to find a repair shop that service Mitsubishi vehicles since all the dealerships were closed down in Tallahassee, Florida.

I called Kelly Superstore previously known as Kelly Subaru and was told yes, they work on and service Mitsubishi vehicles and was good at it. Kelly Superstore did a diagnostic review ($70) and advised that it was a sensor issue, but definitely not my transmission. I paid $511.00 for parts and repair. I picked up the vehicle and still could not get the vehicle in-drive without force. I left the car with them again. They said they greased it. I continued to have problems. I called the Mitsubishi Corporate Office for assistance. I was told sorry; no warranty. I asked if there was any recalls and was told there were none. I then took the vehicle to Albany, Georgia (77) miles away.

They test drove the vehicle, but said they cannot diagnose because it was shifting fine. This was because the vehicle was warmed up, which I advised them over the phone before I took it to Albany. I specifically asked if there was something wrong with the transmission. I was told that nothing is wrong with the transmission. I paid them ($40) to drive my car around in the parking lot. I came back to Tallahassee, and just little over a week from taking the vehicle to Albany, my car would not go forward or backward at a major intersection. I had the car towed back to Kelly Superstore.

This time they claimed they were working directly with an Albany Mitsubishi Specialist on diagnosing the problem. After having the car for a week, they advised that the transmission is gone. Repairs plus tax is $2016.71. I immediately called Mitsubishi Corporate Office, and I was told because it was not taken to the Mitsubishi Dealership to be inspected; they cannot do anything.

I purchased the Mitsubishi WD-Y657 DLP model appx Nov2008. It had a really beautiful picture and I thought I had a great TV. About Sept 2010, the bulb went out and I replaced it; after a week, the image started getting a few white dots and that number increased every single day, and the bulb's brightness has declined dramatically since it was installed just 3 weeks ago.

I did some web searching, and discovered that it is the light engine failing and the cost is 700-800 bucks (no lamp replaced) to repair and that also there is no guarantee it would last very long after the repair. I can't see putting that much in repairs and the problem may rear its ugly head again all too soon. This is cheap. I can't afford to fix this for a TV I expected many more years of life out of.

2005 black Galant started going grey 2009. I complained but nothing was done. On September 2010, the car is 3/4 black and 1/4 grey. The car dealership closed down. I was told by the other dealership that warranty expired 40,000 km ago, which is after I complained in 2009 at a dealership that was closed down. Now I am told by the paint shop that when the car was made not enough coating was put on before the paint. So now I must pay to get it done before winter.

I have owned my Mitsubishi 1080P 52" television since 9/06. I have had to replace 3 lamps and had to have a Mitsubishi authorized repair company replace a lamp sensor last year that Mitsubishi said was a defective part and under an extended warranty. Two weeks ago, my television stopped working and when I tried to reset it, the lamp indicator light came on. Previous experience told me that, once again, I needed to purchase another lamp (this has now happened like clockwork every 12 months).

I bit the bullet and purchased another lamp for $210, installed the lamp, reset the television and it did not work. Once again, the lamp indicator light started blinking. This leads me to believe that the lamp sensor is bad again. I echo other consumer sentiments that a class action lawsuit be initiated against Mitsubishi since there is a definite pattern established for a design engineering defect with these televisions. I will also go on record and say that I have had more problems with this television that I paid $2,000 for and will never buy another Mitsubishi product again.

I bought a 50" TV for $3,000 in 2005 and we have had nothing but problems with it. It has been repaired three times. Once at home and two times in the shop. One month with no TV, recently, we had a problem and service said to pay $600 at least to fix it. The sound would go out for 10 minutes to 2 days and service said to buy a surround sound so we can hear it when it happens--$100. Two weeks later, we had to replace the lamp for the fourth time. $200 and three days later, the timer light came on and the TV wouldn't come on. The book said to reset, which doesn't work.

I called Mitsubishi and then it started. They said that I have to call a service center that they wanted. It is 100 miles but she said that they will diagnose the problems and they charged me $100 plus the $75 I paid my guy and the $200 I just paid for the bulb. After many calls, she said it was the chassis and they don't repair them and offered me a new TV for $769.50. I said, "What about the money I just spent?" And she had to check with management and would call me back. Weeks later, she called and said $450 and with a shipping total of $805.

Bought a Black 2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse brand new. Car currently has 41,000 miles on it and has been garage kept since purchase. Two years ago, the roof started showing white blotches which I found out was delamination. Had it repainted. Six months later, the hood started with same problem - had it repainted. Now the trunk and back quarter panel are doing the same thing.

Many others on the road with the same problem and complaints all over the web regarding delamination on the Eclipse over many years since. This is a major defect consistent with the model and Mitsubishi needs to acknowledge and rectify the situation for thousands of dissatisfied owners.

The defective chassis board has been known as the failure.

I purchased my 64" DLP 1080 Model #WD62525 in May 2006 for $3,000.00. I have had bulb replacement problems every year since purchase. Now, I am finding out about faulty chassis and other issues with this product. I was told to have a tech come and take a peak at it at my expense. The repair guy explained that Mitsubishi would most likely replace the set. I just heard back from Mitsubishi and they want me to pay $788.00 and additional $200.00 for shipping for a new set listed online for sale at $1200.00.

This is ridiculous. Everyday, I find another website with more and more complaints regarding these same issues. I paid a lot of money for this television and have invested over $1,000.00 in repairs and bulbs. Not to mention, months and months without use of our family room television.

Rear protection DLP, Mitsubishi. I bought in new in Bjorn's. I had to replace lamp bulb 3 times, twice in the last 3 months and still not working. Will take it to the backyard and shoot it, worthless piece of junk, coming from a worthless company. Do not buy any Mitsubishi TV! You will be thousands of dollars richer if you don't.

I bought a 60" Mitsubishi 1080P model WD60737 in November 2009 and the lamp is gone already. When I called the company, I was told its a spare part (duh) and it is the same as changing a light bulb in my house. It's amazing that the cheap bulbs I have in my house last longer than 9 months. But the lamp is still under warranty and I will get another. My issue is that this lamp will probably have to be replaced every year which adds to the cost of the television and the company is still making these inferior products.

I have a Mitsubishi WD-65833 that's only 2 years old. I got the infamous BGLOD. Of course, this will cost almost as much as another TV to fix; so it's not happening. Their customer service is useless.

Many people are fed up with them and their refusal to do the right thing. Replace the sets! There is a Facebook page starting up to hopefully get a lot of owners of these defective sets together in one place. The page is: "I have a defective Mitsubishi TV."This same approach has helped many Sony TV owners get replacements sets or deep discounts on new LCD TVs. Consider joining as there is always strength in numbers! A top of the line, very expensive TV is dead after 2 years.

I bought a 65-inch Mitsubishi DLP television in September of last year. In May, the TV just stopped working, and everything I read said that it was the bulb. Being summer time, I really wasn't that concerned about getting it fixed so I waited until about a week ago to get it fixed. So not realizing I had a 1yr warranty from the date of purchase, I wasted $200 on a new bulb. When I put the new bulb in, it still didn't work. So I called the Mitsubishi tech support who informed me I luckily still had 4 days left on my warranty and they sent out a technician 3 days later.

The tech said it was the main engine in the TV and that he would put the order in and they would contact me when it came in. Today, I got a call from the company stating that the part I need for my TV is back ordered until November. So now, I have no TV for another 2 months.

I will never buy anything from this company ever again, and I will tell everyone that will listen to do the same. After reading some of these complaints I see I'm not the only one. What a joke of a company that TV was barely 6 months old and it has been nothing but problems.

Purchased a Mitsubishi WD-52631 and I've been having issues with the lamp since day one. Now, I have to replaced the lamp once again, it lasted a year. I was told the lamp will last average of 55,000 hrs.

We bought our 65-inch Mitsubishi TV 2004. We have had no problems what so ever works and looks great. Was thinking of replacing with Mitsubishi led after hearing all the problems. Think I will purchase a different brand. Thanks for the heads up on Mitsubishi.

I have had nothing but problems with my Mitsubishi WD-65831. I noticed a "blooming" problem perhaps 3 months after owning the TV. If you notice on contrasted images, black screen with white (credits on movies), it is easily noticeable. You'll eventually notice it on just about everything. I had taken the TV in twice at an authorized dealer, but the problem was never understood/fixed. In addition, since owning this for a few years, I seem to have to replace my bulbs every 9 months or so. I have been through 4 bulbs now, and I need a 5th.

My biggest issue with the TV is not the constant bulb replacement (yes, it stinks to shell out $150 each time), but the quality of the image on the screen. The blooming washes out colors, and has gotten worse over time. Does anybody know if a class action lawsuit has been filed? I would gladly join the suit, as I feel it's quite merited. I am out of warranty, and have heard numerous owners that have the exact same problem. I have yet to read a great review on my model. I am an unproud owner since 04/2007. I need to replace the light engine on the television (so I've read) with one that doesn't seriously degrade video quality in a short amount of time. The estimated fix is $500-$1000.

I bought a Mitsubishi DLP 65 in Jan. of 2008 with warranty. Only 2 years in this TV started having lamp indicator light coming on. Called for lamp replacement and had it replaced in store. 5 months later the lamp is out again. I bought this TV to watch, not to replace lamp. I have not had issue with my previous Sony products. Unless Mitsubishi is doing something about their "unreliable pieces of trash they are making", I will just have to get rid of this trash and tell all my many, many cousins (over 50 heads of household), friends, co-workers, classmates, church goers, and neighbor communities about the junks Mitsubishi is making.

I've had this TV for 1 year and 4 months. Just out of warranty. I experienced the TV going in and out of normal picture color. Finally, it went out completely. I thought it was the lamp, but the technician for the shop told me it was the color wheel? 400.00 dollars later, I got my TV back and hope something else doesn't go wrong. I won't buy another Mit product, period!

I have had my 2009 Lancer for a year and half now. I bought it brand new. Sure enough a few months into owing it, I noticed paint chips by the passenger doors/rear quarter panel. I took it to the dealership advised this doesn't seem right. They said road conditions are not covered under warranty. I explained the vehicle I traded was a pickup truck 2000 that had over 200,000 kms. I drove the same roads and it hardly had any chips! So I have taken it to Mitsubishi Canada to see what they can do. Paint chips to rear quarter panels, hood, trunk; it's a joke the paint almost peels right off. I want my car to be fixed. It's not the consumers fault that Mitsubishi uses cheap paint that can't withstand. "Best backed cars in the world?" We will see about that.

I bought one of the first ever available 73" HDTV Model WD73727 and the optical engine has failed. Looks like a bad acid trip. I spent $7000.00 on TV and custom cabinet in March 2006. Mitsubishi extended the optical engine coverage to 3 years, but we are out as of March 2009. We are still paying for TV. We cannot even afford to replace the bulb right now, and with a known defect, Mitsubishi told us, "Sorry, it's out of warranty." Now we have a humongous dust collector sitting on my living room/still making payments and watching the TV out of my camper instead. I bought this TV because 35" console tube TV lasted 20 years! I'm looking at a $1500.00 repair and probably need a new bulb, too. I'm still making payments with no help.

Our model wd6275 went ban we had the chassis repaired three times and kept getting bad chassis from Mitsubishi. They told us they would send us a new upgraded model of the same in 2 weeks within receiving money order and letter signed. Then after they got all of that-I overnighted money order(it took them 3 days to enter into their system)Then they informed it the repair com. would have to pick up the set and it would be another 7-10 business days. After talking to NUMEROUS agents and a supervisor I have gotten no where and they are saying it will still take 7-10 business days from now. I had to wait 3 days on top of it for the supervisor to call me back and they didn't start the process on getting our model to us until they called me back 3 days later. They probably still have not sent it. They have the worst customer service that I have ever dealt with. Granted I normally don't have to deal with customer service because usually products are good. I WILL NEVER,NEVER BUY MITSUBISHI AGAIN AND TELL ALL MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS THE SAME.

Temsa ( mitsubishi motors istanbul Turkey dealer ) denies responsibility.

Can anyone give me a contact near my home in Ramona, California that can do the smog check and get it passed. I am running on expired tags even though I have paid the license fees to the DMV and have a receipt. Also the DMV said they stopped giving temporary passes to allow the car to be on the highways while the smog problem is being corrected.

Don't ever buy a Mitsubishi Vehicle they don't honor their powertrain warranty. I've serviced my vehicle every 3 thousand miles and followed every recommended service for the past 4 years. My transmission went out

at 96 thousand miles which is under the 10/100k mile warranty. They claimed that when I had my transmission work done in 2008 the shop didn't use the Mitsubishi Diamond SP III transmission fluid I had Castrol Import

Multiple Vehicle Auto Transmission Fluid put in instead which is a recommended product. They had my car for 2 weeks and this is the excuse that they came up with so that they don't have to put in a new

$5000 transmission. During these times when the auto industry is trying to get you to buy their products and advertising their warranties they will find a loophole for not working on your vehicle.

Back in 2006 I notice the paint on the hood of my 2003 black Galant starting to turn white, I was told because the company didn't put on enough clear coat the paint was coming off, I paid $350.00 to have the hood re-painted now the paint on the trunk and the top of my car is turning white. It looks really BAD!. The dealership will not pay to have it re-painted nor will Mitsubishi, the car is no longer under warranty. This is clearly a defect. They need to do a recall and fix this problem.

I reported the problem only to find out that Mitsubishi L200 trucks have this steering wheel problem and a MODIFIED part will be sent from Japan. It has been 2 months since then and although i frequently called my Mitsubishi dealer my problem remains unsolved. I cannot find an international Mitsubishi owned e-mail address or phone number to report my problem. Very dangerous to drive with this glitch on the highway.

I have a silver 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor. The paint is fading/oxidizing very badly on the hood and the roof. The body shop said it would cost between $4,000-$5,000 to repaint the entire vehicle. One reason I bought a silver vehicle is because I was told that white or silver paint holds up much better than dark colors. I don't think the paint should look so bad on a 2004. I think this price is ridiculous. I might as well just buy another car.

My GTO was repaired using a Genuine Mitsubishi Water pump, 3 weeks later a bolt from the pump came out and ruined my engine. Mitsubishi UK have admitted responsibility and have agreed to fix my car which could take up to 3 weeks. I need to get to work and as my GTO is my only form of transport, i asked Mitsubishi to suply a vehicle for me to use whist mine is being repaired. they have refused sayins parts waranty does not cover the free use of a vehicle and if i need a vehicle i should go and hire one at my own expence

i bought a wd57732 in october of 06. i had the temp sensor issue around september of 07. after reading the same consumer complaints about mitsubishi tv's, i feel fortunate that i havent had a bulb issue until today, 6-14-09. i did purchase a 4 year extended warranty, but i am not looking forward to contacting ge warranty services on monday as it took me over 1 month to get someone to look into the temp sensor issue. i cant believe that a company is allowed to sell so many of the same type products, having the same type problems, and they are not being held accountable.

I have a 2003 Mitsubishi Montero Sport, I've paid 72 payments a total of $37,224. I've struggled to make payments thru out the life of the loan but have managed to. I received 6 extentions (which are included the 72 payments) now they say I owe $2400 for late fees and are threating to take the vehicle.

Now the set has ghost/silver images over the entire TV viewing picture which looks terrible, now I'm told I need a new internal motor. The TV is less than 2 years old and not watched very much except in the evenings and on weekends, and now I need a new over priced motor. Also, the status light now shuts the TV off every 5-7 minutes because it thinks the TV is over heating.

This Mitsubishi DLP WD-73831 73in Diamond Series TV was not ready for prime time, and is being sold every day. I've been looking again at TVs, and notice that this TV is now being offered at half the price I paid for it, AND I WONDER WHY? It's a defected product that cannot sustain regular usage.

PLEASE NOTE: All the Mitsubishi parts are just temporary and will need to be replace on a regular basis at extra-ordinary prices and service fees. If you want to live like that, then buy a Mitsubishi.

Purchased a WD62525 Mitsubishi Television in September 2006. Great TV Great Picture. Spent over $5,000.00 at time of Purchase. December 2007 had a problem with a Flashing Green light then the TV went out. No Power. The place I purchased the TV from, The Big Screens TV Store referred me to a third party Mitsubishi service provider to fix the TV which took a little over a month. We increase the warranty to a 5-year contract for $500.00 (equivalent to the price of a bulb)to ensure full service component coverage going forward.

Approximately a year later, another service failure occurred and we ended up purchasing another replacement bulb. Despite the change of the bulb this did not solve the problem. After several repeated attempts to get Mitsubishi to honor the warranty and multiple attempts to gain assistance from the Big Screen Store and non response from the third party service company, we we informed that the warranty that was purchased was not valid.

I did search on the brand via the internet and found that other consumers had also complained to Mitsubishi about the same problem without any solution. We exchange info in the user groups in an effort to fix and solve the problem to no avail. Some have suggested(the members in the user group) contacting Mitsubushi for resolution or perhaps filing a class action suit... given the fact that these devices experience the same blue/green screen death at around the same time in their product lifecyle this is indeed a known defect. there should be some favorable recourse available to the hundreds of consumers who have been financially damaged by these TV sets. How can we remedy this situation because they are certainly in a position to do something.

I have already put in too much hours and hundreds of dollars and refuse to put any more effort into this matter. However, I still want it fixed.

Please include my complaint along with the many others regarding this matter on the Mitsubishi WD62525. Should your office or the FTC decide to take some action, please notify me so that they can understand that you cannot just dump these defective products in the market without any consequences.

Me and my Wife bought a 2008 mitsubishi lancer evolution, and the paint is chipping away, in the strangest place on the bottom of the rear doors. edmunds .com has a forum about people with the same problem. we dont drive this car on gravel roads. but the paint is chipping away.

mitsubishi is aware of the problem, but acts like its my problem now

the value of the care will decrease and.and if i fix it the problem will occur again and again,this car cost alomost 40 k brand new and i only have 3,500 miles on it

Bought DLP TV 73 Mitubishi, WD73827 3/06. 3/08 the light engine went out. I was lucky when i called around i talked the the right person. They said there is a recall on these model tv's light engines. I called Mitsubishi customer Service and after talking to about 5 people and told them there was a recall they said Ye that they extended the warranry for 2 years. All Service Electronices came here and put another one in.

On 1/09 the light engine went out again. I called Mitsubishi again. All Service Electronics came and put another one in. I ask the guy who replaced the light engine if these light engines were upgraded. He said no they are the same ones that go out! Mitsubishi's back self light engines. Now If this light engine goes out the extended 2-year warrranty will expire. I have read on the internet i am not the only one this is happening to! What can we do? I spent a lot of money for this tv. It's a lemen?

Motional Stress to my family and myself.

I tried to buy a car from this company on 01-31-09. I told them my credit score was 750 from Experian three months ago. I did not tell them I had a bankruptcy roughly two years ago. I was involved in a scam and the court discharged all my debts in 2007. The salesman came back to me and told me my credit score with Equifax was 649 and not acceptable at the price he had quoted me. He said the payments would be much higher. I said no and walked out.

Is there anything I could have or should have done? I am 69 years old and my husband passed away 5 years ago. Consequently it is rather difficult for me get by. I do need a new car and I wondered if there is a better way for me to handle shopping for a new car.

made pymnt in full for my mitsubshi auto in nov 08 spoke w/ representative and was told acct paid in full and i will receive my pink slip within 14 days after my check cleared,11/21/08 checked cleared. Today 12/05/08 due to the fact I received a bill for $73.44 i phoned automated system recording which states paid in full and that i would receive my pink slip within 14 days from date check processed. I spoke to 2 diff reps telling no i must pay fees, again i explained i paid acct in full and was told that verbally by rep on day i paid acct and also via automated system.

last rep was stacy, which would not give her last initial or rep# or ext,she also stated she spoke with supervisor and they will accept 1/2 of the $73.44,i then was transferred to supervisor mary geiser ext 4221 on which i left a voicemail. i also notified that i have recordings of conversations and recording of automated system stating my acct paid in full, so i was told that first by rep when i req to pay acct in full in nov and by automated system.

We purchased a black 2005 Endeavor Oct 22, 2005 and this summer have had major issues with the clear coat and black paint fading out, failing, whatever you want to call it. The service manager agreed to have the car "spot" painted on the areas where the paint was missing. He was familiar he said with flat surfaces of the black paint doing this and he would take pictures and get authorization from Mitsubishi to have this problem taken care of. Another customer spoke to my husband and commented we were having the same problem as she was on her Endeavor, and was having to take it back in for painting as more areas were showing up for repair. She told him "Good Luck" with our issues. Our hood, roof and the side partitions between the front seat windows and back seat windows were painted.

We purchased the car and were disapointed driving it. We found it was dangerous to drive due to blind sots caused by poor lines of visibility. It needed a complete 4 wheel brake job (pads & rotors) at 17,000 miles. The worst thing is it has left us stranded 2 times now when the imobillizer key fell apart while attempting to start the car. The replacement key is 170.00. It is not under warranty. I guess you are not supposed to use the key to start the car. The design of the key is obvious very poor.

The key situation left us stranded on 2 occasions. We are not willing to by another defective keys at 170.00 so we plan to defeat the imobilizer circuit so we can then use a standard key.

went to mitsubishi dealer in montreal canada. he charged me for recall on my endeaver. a safety recall! he said your truck is aus unit and your in canada. here you must pay! this a dishonest company. they recall because of their defect and i have to pay!

I was driving north bound on the garden state parkway when suddenly my girlfriend and i smelled a very strong burning smell.... When she looked at her door (passenger door) she saw fire coming through the door...... I pulled over onto the shoulder as quick as possible, i then shut the car off and got my kids out of the car as quick as possible. While i was getting the kids out the car my girlfriend had to climb over to the driver seat side in order to get out because her door was already on fire....... Within a minute of us getting out of the car the car was already burning completely....

2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor paint failure started with just a couple small oxidation spots when it was only two years old.Very alarming when the car exterior has been maintained and protected quite well. It has become horrible within the last 3 months. Now the value of my car is completely lost and the expenses to repair the damage that should still be covered under warranty is over $5000.
