Vizio Reviews

I purchased my first Vizio 50 inch Smart TV just over 2 years ago. After just 11 months a red slow pulsing line appeared approximately 6 inches from the bottom. After contacting Vizio and sending the requested pictures of the defect to them they delivered a new TV. It was considered a 'returned' TV as it had been in one store and then sent to another store and back to the factory? It was in a sealed box with all the packaging intact but I was told it only had the warranty that was left on my old TV. Wish I would have questioned that at the time but a deal is a deal.

Vizio 50" – easy to set up, great picture. Sound quality is very good without a sound bar. Locks on to our roku and internet easily and stays locked. We have had the set two years with no problems.

I have a 27' flat screen television. I have cable tv but I am unable to get a clear picture. I wear glasses and wonder if that has anything to do with it. I know they have the letterbox and normal settings but the picture is still kind of distorted for me.

My Vizio is an older model, probably at least 7 years old. It's a 42" HD and has been nothing but wonderful. Clear lines, great color hues and perfectly compatible with my satellite service, DirecTV. When it comes time to choose a replacement, there's no doubt I'd check Vizio first. I also like the idea that it's made in the USA.

I saved up for over a year to buy a flat screen TV. Ended up purchasing a 50" Vizio Smart TV. Now just 13 months later (a month after the warranty ended - how convenient) the TV will turn on and there is sound, but no picture. The screen is just black. Vizio customer support guided me through about 30 seconds of troubleshooting before telling me that the cost to repair it would be almost as much as I paid for the TV in the first place. What does it tell you that they seemed to immediately know what the problem was?

I own 4 TVs sizes are 32", 2-42", & a 50". All are Vizio Smart High Definition 1080/129hz true colors and great picture. They all are slimline and can be hung on a wall or using the stand that comes with it. I have had them for 2 years now and never had any problems. Easy to set up and made very well. Audio is ok but we use a Vizio Sound Bar for the family room and has a fabulous surround sound. I like Vizio the best as I have over the years used other brands.

Small screen resolution, not high sound, not so great. This is a TV good for general viewing but not for gaming, is enjoying theater sound during movies. I'm describing the Vizio flat screen that sits atop a desk in a bedroom.

The TV has a great picture. It is affordable and I have not had any problems. Vizio makes a great product and they make it affordable with a lot of features.

Bought our first Vizio flat screen around 5 years ago, have bought 3 more since for different rooms. Love them all - great picture and sound. You really can't beat the price either, which was a selling point when we first purchased ours. I would most definitely recommend Vizio to someone looking to purchase a new TV.

This television is amazing. The integrated wireless has made connecting to my bluetooth DVR a snap and the streaming experience with Hulu, Netflix, and Amazon Prime has been flawless. The TV has a ton of input ports so I can easily hook up multiple HDMI cables as well as RCA. The picture is clear, the unit is lightweight and easy to move, and the look is sleek and simple. I love it! My only complaint is the remote is difficult to see when you're watching tv in the dark. The buttons illuminate but it's for such a short period of time that you run the risk of accidentally hitting the wrong button.

The television was outdated when I bought it. I mean -- it was new but it was still already behind the times. It has worked all these years though. Just not updated as far as being a true "internet" television.

Vizio 60 uhd tv - I purchase this tv in March 2015 and just taking it out of box. I purchased this tv from Dell. This tv is costing me almost 1800.00 dollars and I have had to call Vizio troubleshooting already and he was not much help. This tv is defective. It just shut off after ten minutes of watching. It shut off then you have to wait and turn it back on and it shut off again. This is not fair to people who invest in a product to have it doing this really. Within a week I trying to see what they are going to do about it. I did purchase the warranty for the tv so I'm going to see what this is all about. Keep you posted. It should be laws against these company selling big ticket items that don't even make it a week. Bad business. I will never buy a Vizio or Panasonic again in my life. Consumer affairs I need your help.

Vizio P50HDTV - Initial problems with RCA ports for video game and DVD connections were troubling. They just plain quit working. This prompted quick transition to HD format Blue Ray HDMI port whether I wanted/needed to or not. Overall, this plasma set is still working and the picture quality is very good. Black colors or scenes tend to pixelate, but still on par with many much newer LED sets.

I have 3 Panasonics. They're all flat screens 60", 52", 24". I was very happy when purchased the 60". It had a cooling problem. It took 2 days to get a brand new one and Panasonic told me when I purchase the 52" they would work out a fair deal. So when I went to purchase the 52" and I knew then I needed the 24" for our master bathroom nobody could match or beat the price. In all and all I used to be real picky. I've purchased pioneer tvs, some Kenwood a/v products. And they were great in the first year. Just when warranty ends. But let's face the facts workmanship is build in to the spec and if spec calls for longevity to last 3 years you bet it's gonna last that time.

We purchased our first Vizio 55 inch flat screen TV model E500i-b1 from SAM's Club as it was on sale in June 2014. We did not take it out of the box until after Thanksgiving when our living room floor was redone. 11 months later the TV would not power on, just got a black screen with the light on in the left corner as other consumers have reported. Called Vizio and they said to hold power button down for 30 seconds. This did not help. We sent the receipt copy but because it was purchased in June it was out of warranty by 4 months and no we did not buy an extended warranty as our previous Sanyo TV lasted us 18 years, so we assumed this new one would do the same!!!

I bought this tv for my son four years when he was in college. He graduated and I ended up with the tv. It has the clearest picture and the sound is wonderful. I have had no problems at all with this tv. We had a Samsung 52 inch screen tv in our den and it was snowy and you had to turn the sound almost to the max. Replaced with Vizio three years ago and I have wonderful, clear picture. I barely have to turn sound volume up at all. I love this brand and this is the only brand I will buy from this point on.

I have a small Vizio 43 inch smart TV. I have had very few problems with it. The picture is excellent. The price was great. I plan on purchasing a bigger one soon. Mine is about 4 years old so it's time to upgrade.

I have a Vizio which is top of the line. The picture looks three dimensional and is very clear. I would highly recommend this make to anyone.

Have 5 TV's, all different brands. Just purchased a Vizio E-Series 50-inch flat screen LED Smart TV. Excellent sound and good picture quality for an economically priced TV.

I bought at Costco a Vizio 32 inches tv just three and a half months ago and today the picture went completely black. Now Costco say it only have three months warranty. I noticed reading people complaints that this is a known issue and by Vizio and nothing have been done. For sure I will never buy a Vizio again.

A 37 inch screen TV with excellent picture quality and features to enable users to adjust the features to suit viewers. Has numerable connectivity ports to enable addition/connection of various hardware: audio, video, and personal PCs. Excellent sound quality, made of durable yet light material, easily managed, and is conveniently built with the aim to utilize a minimum of space where the thickness is concern. However, I would recommend putting more effort in developing the audio section, as this area puts a lot of load on the speakers causing them to vibrate when the volume is increased significantly. Barring this, an excellent product.

42 inch flat screen. It was easy to set up and is easy to program (screen resolution, closed captions, etc). It is connected to DirecTV and is always clear and reliable.

Purchased on sale and it is for my bedroom. Perfect size and price was great. Color is great. Only thing is I wish speakers were a bit better, for I'm a bit hard of hearing. Overall I would recommend my tv to anyone looking for a lesser price but good quality.

Purchased it, set it up (easy), turned it on and ever since has worked great. Picture is sharp, color is good and sound quality fine. No complaints.

Don't know if this will help anyone but I called Vizio tech support when my tv kept showing "no signal". I was asked if I was using HDMI-3 port; I was. She said to try port 2, didn't help. Then I tried port 1 and voilà, I have my television back on. Don't know how long it will last (fingers crossed) but maybe some of the people on here should try changing their ports and see if it makes a difference.

I first purchased my Vizio TV when I moved into an apartment 2 years ago. The screen resolution has been good and it's easy to use but the sound system isn't as loud as I would like so I purchased a small surround system to add the volume I needed to hear various programs. The Vizio TV has an awesome picture still as of today.

Vizio huge screen exceptional value... Great performance. Very good overall.

Only had my 50" for about 2 years and the picture don't show sometimes!!! Will never buy this brand again!

Well, like everyone else I just learned a lesson from Vizio. One year into my new 50" E500 and the screen goes black. Great sound but black screen. Nothing they can do because it's out of warranty. I am 14 months since I bought it new... Typical throw away product and company. They suck with their product quality.

We have a Vizio television with smart TV features and 3D. We love the clearness of the picture and the ability to use the smart TV and 3D functions. We also love that you get a great TV at an affordable prize. We have not had any problems with it and would most definitely pay another one.

I've purchased about 5 Vizio TVs - the problem is the remote controls and the customer service. Remotes work interchangeably so when one breaks I've been able to use another. However, when I got around to calling Vizio for a replacement remote (about $10 on Amazon) based on the principle of being a loyal and repeat client, they refused to exchange them, citing the 1-year TV warranty. The TV works fine, the remote is the problem. Vizio policy is "No help whatsoever," not even a remote control, after a year. Doesn't matter if a family member died, and you're busy in September getting your 5 kids off to school... no flexibility. No middle ground. No compromise. No discount. No courtesy. It's "your fault for not calling in time" attitude - repeated again, and again, and again.

It works fine. The color not bad. It is not top of the line but everything is fine.

My Vizio is great! It has an awesome color and a very crisp picture. I have owned my TV for two years now and I have not had a single issue with it. I am extremely happy with my TV and will soon buy another one for my bedroom.

Vizio – the picture is EXCELLENT. The sound quality leaves something to be desired. It is muffled and chalky sounding. Changing the channels back and forth (or up and down) will knock the sound back to a normal level. Not sure if it's a loose wire or something else.

This TV has been nothing short of a pain in the butt! Bought for Christmas 2014, sound went out a few months later. Sent out a tech to fix it. He screwed it up and the entire TV overheated and shut off. Sent out a new one using Manna White Glove Service, received it a week late. Two tweekers in a pickup truck showed up and didn't have a clue how to install it.

My 42 inch Vizio Smart LED TV model E420i-AO, is now an expensive doorstop. What a POS. I am so angry right now and this is my only recourse. The TV is two years old and like so many others, the screen went blank and the repairman says there's nothing to be done. I am a savvy consumer and will research a purchase like a scientist before I spend my hard earned money. So where were all these complaints or this website two years ago? I dunno.

Just had the brand-new Vizio 4K smart TV delivered. At first glance, the picture is so real that it is almost too real, as if you are on the set...watching actors. But more importantly are the channels that are pre-programmed. All Fox News and Yahoo. If you are a fan, buy it. If you like PBS, NPR, independent films and the freedom to make your own choices, DO NOT BUY IT. I have owned the TV for 2 days and plan to return this 55-inch beauty tomorrow to Best Buy. Wish me luck. P.S. I now remember reading this conservative vs. liberal programming was coming. Well **, it is here.

On August 28, 2014, I purchased the Vizio E550i-B1 smart television ($617) for my daughter who was about to move into her first apartment. On October 1, 2014, she moved into her apartment and began using her television for the first time. In the beginning of September 2015, the television began having problems where you can turn it on (power stays on) but there is no picture. I called Vizio support and they walked me through the power cycle (which I had already done before calling their support number) which did nothing to help the problem. Apparently the tech support can only tell you how to power cycle their televisions.

I purchased a 50 in E500i smart tv in February. I noticed that the tv struggled to power on. I emailed VIZIO. They suggested I unplug the tv and cords for 30 seconds. It worked briefly. I will call VIZIO. I am not happy.

I have read a lot of reviews lately on the problems with the 60 and 70 inch TV by Vizio. I happen to have the 60 inch that has the black screen model # lftrnwap0113490 that I contacted the support center to be told it was not on a recall. How is this possible when people have had this issue on the 60 and 70 inch. Shame on Vizio company for not covering this problem when clearly a lot of customers have come across this.

I purchased this Vizio 60" Smart TV M602i-B3 in December and have had nothing but problems since. The TV would occasionally not respond to the remote control's signal. The volume wouldn't adjust, the TV wouldn't turn on, the input channels wouldn't adjust, etc. When the input channels or volume did adjust, the icon would stay on the screen. I would constantly have to unplug the TV to temporarily get it functioning correctly. I've spoken with Vizio several times and they just keep giving me excuses. They sent me two remotes saying that was the issue. Then they sent a TV repairman to replace the IR Board inside the TV. On the next call I was told it was b/c I had to update the TV's software. The next time they sent me a third remote. Finally, they agreed to replace my TV with a "Recertified" TV.

Vizio M series 3D Television - About a year ago I searched long (6 months) and hard (comparing features and specs.) for a good large screen LED television, somewhat feature rich at a reasonable price. I had paid entirely too much for my first flat screen and didn't want to make the same mistake. Vizio seemed to fit what I was looking for. Initially things seemed to be okay though I noticed on several occasions after nodding off while watching my TV when I awoke the screen was off. I didn't think much of it maybe I hit the remote while I slept. Then it happened while I was watching something right at the critical moment in the story.

We bought a 39" Vizio TV not even 3 years ago and now it will not power off or on!! It's sad that I spent $400 on this TV and it won't work. It only is under warranty for 1 yr. We have an older model tv... That is approx. 20 years old and it works FINE! We didn't have to choose Vizio but we had heard so many good things so we shopped around and decided to go with this product... NEVER again! It will cost me about $225 to fix. I might as well buy another TV! I am VERY disappointed.

I've had my 50" Vizio smart TV for about a year and a half, and right when the warranty ended, my television would not turn on. When I tried calling Vizio, the first time, I got hung up on, the second time I got stuck up answers like "no warranty means that we can't do anything." Really!? They can't back up their product? Giving me examples, like if my car broke down after a year and no warranty they won't do anything, yes they will. Vizio is not backing up their products! Pretty stuck up, I am PISSED.

I bought Vizio Smart TV from Best Buy less than a year ago. The TV will not power on. Best Buy told me to contact HD Repair since the TV was still under warranty. 5 weeks later - no technician has come out to repair TV. Do not buy VIZIO products!

My Vizio soundbar stopped responding to the tv remote. I called Vizio tech support and was then informed of an update to the soundbar software. I installed the update and the soundbar did not work properly. After called back tech support they sent me a thumb drive with the update. My result was the same... My soundbar does not work properly. They have just lost a customer. The soundbar was fairly new, and it is already out of date and not usable. This is not the way reputable companies work.

Purchased a 70" Vizio HD TV in August 2014. In September 2015 (just 10 days past the one year warranty expired, a large black section appeared in the upper left hand corner of the TV. Called Vizio customer service and was asked to send pictures and copy of receipt. After several conversations with customer service, we were told that the TV was out of warranty and they could not help us. My sister also purchased a Vizio TV and the screen went black. It was replaced with a refurbished TV and that screen went black. Will never purchase another Vizio product and would not recommend this brand to anyone. What happen to customer service and standing behind your product? This is one of the worst experiences I have ever had with a company. Very, very dissatisfied!

In December 2014 me and my girlfriend ordered a Vizio smart tv (E320i-B2). It worked fine until August of 2015, when it would not connect to my wifi. It would show it was connected but would not load anything. Anytime I would turn the tv off I would have to accept the terms and conditions before being able to access my networks. I had my tv replaced on August first due to this issue, and the customer service center advised me it was the wifi card. So after a hold on my credit card and two weeks go by I finally received my tv. It worked great for about a day and a half, then it would slowly load and frequently interrupt whatever I was watching on Netflix. I thought it could possibly be my router so I switched routers, and ended up just upgrading my internet service.

I purchased a 65 inch smart tv from Vizio 2 years ago and now the pixels are going bad. I contact technical support. They tell me the warranty is only one year and they will not help. Their advice? "Go and buy another tv." No kidding. That was their advice with no help, no I'm sorry, nothing. Stay away from this company!!! Complete jerks.

I bought two different model Vizio 32 inch smart TV's in the past year. One from Sam's Club and one from WalMart. They both had the same problem. The RCA/Composite cable connections did not work. Had to buy extra equipment to use the HDMI connections. My question is... Is this a conspiracy between Sam's Club, WalMart and Vizio to sell defective TV's, and that is why the prices are low? Or is Vizio solely to blame for putting out a substandard product? I used to think Vizio was a good brand. Not so much anymore. My next tv purchase will not be a Vizio.

I purchased a 70-inch Vizio tv 2 years ago. Some of the led back lighting has failed. Vizio doesn't have any replacement parts to fix it. I called customer service and they told me to buy another tv. They have no other resolution. I would never purchase another Vizio product and I will preach to everyone I meet to never buy their products. A very poorly run company that doesn't stand behind its product.

I purchase Vizio Smart 70 inches December of 2013 and had it set up February of 2014 due to space unavailability. I notice when I cut it off it had a cracking sound. Despite of that there was no other issue until August of 2015. 1 year and 5 months of use it went blank. Called customer support, they conveyed it needed repair and gave me a TV service repair in my area stating it's not on the extended warranty. I am warning the public that this unit is not durable and do not recommend purchasing Vizio Smart TV.

Vizio contacted me and after reconsideration decided my complaint was valid and have shipped a new replacement TV. Very pleased!

I bought my SMART TV MODEL # E500i-B1 in December 2014. In August 2015, the screen stopped functioning (the TV would power on, but the screen stayed black). I called tech support, but the TV was apparently done. I was advised that I qualified for "swap" (great!). Then told the swap would be for a "new" TV, but was then told "new" meant a TV that was purchased and returned (an "open box" situation, so Vizio cannot resell), and then it went through an "extensive re-certification process."

Two months ago my husband noticed that our tv was overheating. We thought it might be the weather but it was almost too hot to touch. At the beginning of this month 8/15 a pixel line appeared on my TV screen. I tried for a day to ignore it but actually just got worse. The following day there was a small dark spot on the bottom of the screen. I called Vizio and let them know about the problem. They told me to take a picture so I did and sent it to them. I was told they would get back to me within 2 days.

We went and bought a Vizio 47 inch smart TV in January 2014. We had the tv for 13 months and it went dark, it wouldn't even come back on. So we called, we understood it was out of warranty but thinking they would stand by their product, they sent out a repairman. Now we had to pay 99.00 to have them come out. They put parts in and the tv wouldn't work. Then a day after it started working, but now the screen went dark again. So the repair company told us it was a screen issue. We contacted Vizio again and was told they would give us a new tv for 300.00. That is crazy. I can't understand why there hasn't been something done about this company!!! They are just ripping hard working people of their hard earned money with their JUNK TV.

Bought the VIZIO M501d-A2R 50-Inch 1080p 3D Smart LED HDTV for $800 from Best Buy. Got home, plugged it all in and heard loud buzzing every time we watched a movie. Figured out a solution to unplug the TV and plug it back in and it stopped. So far so good until I turned on the TV today and noticed black/colored lines going horizontal and diagonal across the TV screen. So fantastic. Contacted Vizio and they said the warranty would not cover it (of course). What a waste of $$$. I will not be purchasing from this POS brand ever again.

In November 2012 I purchased a brand new Vizio brand 32-inch Smart TV from Dell.com, Model No. E3D32OVX, Serial No. LAUKJRDN4105321 for my bedroom. The television did not work well with Netflix and the picture went completely out in less than 3 years of ownership. Called Vizio's customer service and was told the TV needed repairing. I will not repair this TV because it will cost as much as purchasing a new television. When I purchase a new set, I will not purchase the Vizio brand anymore. I think it is a shame that companies make products that won't even last 3 years. Also, I will be complaining to Dell.com for selling Vizio products to consumers.

I purchase television from Walmart on April 15, 2015. Upon arrival at home on July 31, television would not work. I called Vizio customer support, supplied all the appropriate information. They stated they needed proof of purchase although they could tell when they sold TV to Walmart in March 2015. They also tried to state the TV was not in warranty although they could see that the TV was less than a year old. I have had numerous calls with Vizio in reference to this and their lack of commitment and lackadaisical attitude is atrocious at best. I recommend anyone who is looking for a new television, buy something other than a Vizio as if you have a problem, you will have a total goat roping getting a replacement and the company handling the replacement process is not very proactive in their responses either. 19 Days without a television to watch and poor customer support. Next time I will buy another brand that is not a Vizio.

I purchased a 50" Vizio from Walmart in Dec 2013. It began having issues in April of this year/16 months after purchase. Malfunctions included turning on and off, loud screeching noise and getting stuck on the V icon screen. Today, no led light, no screen, no TV... it will not respond at all. I waited several years to buy a flat screen for my wall and this is so disappointing. There should be a class action lawsuit as this seems to be the norm and not the exception. I won't bother to call the manufacturer as it is evident that NO ONE has had any restitution or replacement.

TV breaking after only 4 years. Getting a split screen with the writing backwards. Random does this, then goes away after 10 min or so.

550 ie 55" smart TV - Garbage. Failed after 13 months. Repairs were almost as much as current prices. Now a 55" door stop. Stay away from this company.

I bought a tv in May 2014 and in August 2015 the TV screen went blank. I was told that the bulb in the backlight went out and I was supposed to pay $300 for the part when I only paid $550 for the TV! They tried to offer me a new tv but to have the bulb go out within 14 months and they didn't do anything to resolve the issue without paying at least $300 is crazy to me! They just kept saying this happens sometimes! I will never buy another product of theirs!

Purchased a 50 Vizio Smart TV less than 7 months ago. Won't turn on, just has a white light in the lower corner. Called support and all they can do is send a re-certified TV, a fancy name for a refurbished. What some crap. When you spend that much money on a TV and it is less than 7 months old you should get a new one. Now it is going to take 7-10 business days to get the re-certified one but reading other people reviews they are waiting for 1 month or longer which is not acceptable. Don't buy!!!

Bought 70" M Series Vizio this week at Costco. Also purchased their 5 year warranty for $100, which came with the verbal disclaimer that it covered "everything except a cracked screen." Now wondering why they have that disclaimer right out of the gate! The box looked perfect. Comcast came next day to hook it up to cable and when they plugged it in, a small light from behind the screen showed that the screen was shattered and nothing worked except the small light showing that we now owned a huge $2,000 piece of landfill! Warranty covered nothing.

VIZIO E3D420VX 42 Inch Class Theater 3D L - Turned on my TV yesterday, Vizio symbol only. Had this TV since June 2012. As I'm only 17 now purchased when I was 14, took a while to save with my chore or birthday money, I am angry that this $598 died. I was hoping on taking this to college next year. Then I read in reviews that this had happened to several people that purchased this on Amazon as I did. I was the lucky one as theirs died sooner than mine. They have lost my business for life.

Trying to get them to replace TV... no joy. Don't buy a Vizio. I have since bought a new Samsung and it works fine.

I received a 60" TV from my son for Christmas in 2012. Purchased from Best Buy. Worked OK... had some glitches but I've never owned a smart TV before so I just chalked it up to that. Well, on July 4th, 2015 the picture went dark. I still had the sound but the picture was dark. My son had purchased an extended warranty plan through Best Buy. But I was told that it was beyond warranty and there is nothing they can do. And so I contacted Vizio Support and they claim it was a known defect in my model... and it required The T-Com Board be replaced. But I had missed their replacement campaign and there is nothing they can do... or... I was told that they could replace my TV with a factory serviced one for $600.00 and I will have to purchase a separate warranty. SO I AM OUT OF $848.00.

Purchased Vizio TV at Walmart Senatobia ms 2014 - screen now dark, can't seem to get help. Always left on hold or hung up on.

We have had our Vizio 50" smart TV for about a month. We kept getting loud bangs every once in awhile. I thought it was the cable. Comcast changed our box, but it still made loud bangs. Comcast came back out and discovered that we had electricity back feeding onto the cable. So we were told we needed an electrician. Electrician was here for about 2 hours. He checked all outlets and then started unplugging different equipment. Finally he narrowed the problem down to the HDMI ports on our Vizio tv. They were spiking about 150v. We changed our brand new HDMI cables and it did not help. We took the TV back to BEST BUY and of course the 15 day exchange period was up so they said we had to call the manufacturer. We called Vizio. They did send a case number but I have yet to hear back from them on what they plan to do about the TV.

Purchased a 70" TV through Amazon July 2013. I hardly watched it, being very busy. Turned it on twice a week. June 2015 it went blank while watching a show, picture just shorted itself and entire screen went black. Called Vizio (within the 2 yr warranty period), the rep said it would need to be repaired by this number and sent me off, called that #, they then said it would be too costly to fix, and referred to Shop Jimmy. SJ doesn't repair TVs so we had to go with their recommendation and get a T-con board...

Had a 55" TV and the power supply was having issues. Called Vizio to have a repair scheduled since it was still under full warranty. Now it has been three weeks and still no repair. Called back several times and waited on countless phone calls and never had any response. All I have received from the support team is frustration and a wild goose chase. Not going to be dealing with these people again any time soon.

I purchases a Vizio HD Smart TV new 2 years ago. Within 3 months of purchase, issues with it shutting off and back on by itself. Apps not working. Constantly dealt with apps not working then working. After a total pain for the entire time I've owned it, the apps now do not work at ALL. Called Vizio tech support -- went through many various attempts but TV still shows wireless is connected but no downloads and no Apps working. Then Vizio tech says I am no longer under warranty so need to have their repair guy come out and put in new internet card for over $200!!! All other devices in my home connect fine. I am furious that this TV is garbage for what I paid and how new it is. I have owned many quality TV's prior to buying this "smart" one. All worked without any issue for over 25 years!!! There should be a class action suit against Vizio. A TRUE rip off!!

Bought a 32 inch tv and within 11 months the screen displayed horizontal lines and became unusable. I took pictures and opened a ticket. They told me that I had broken it due to improper mounting/damage. The TV has been sitting on a shelf on its legs for the entire time. They refused to honor the warranty. I'm totally disgusted with them.

So I purchased this TV in May of 2013. A few months ago, I start to notice this dark spot in the top middle of the TV. Little by little the dark spot got larger (about the size of a grapefruit now). I always buy an extended warranty with large ticket items and glad I did. I first contacted the warranty company and after sending them pictures of the issue, they stated it was a manufacturer's defect and Vizio would replace the TV since this issue is not repairable according to them. So I go through the warranty process with Vizio... and surprise surprise, Vizio stated it was not a manufacturer defect and there was nothing Vizio can do.

TV does not allow access to internet. Many calls to Vizio. Vizio did not wish to replace with new set, but refurbished, despite owning less than 30 days. Also had great difficulty understanding that this is vacation home with limited times to be available at address. Not easy to deal with when things go wrong.

This is my third Vizio product and until recently I was pleased. I purchased a 50in Smart TV February 2015 and July 2015 it stopped working. I tried the hard start and nothing. I called customer services and filed a work order for someone to come out to repair the unit. After almost three weeks, they have yet to get the parts to repair my TV. According to Technical Support the parts are on back order. I am truly disappointed this time with Vizio. At this time I will not recommend the purchase of a Vizio smart TV to my friends.

Paid $1498 at Wal-Mart Feb. 16, 2014. TV screen went black and completely failed July 13, 2015. Repair firm in Fort Worth unable to fix it. This is terrible price to pay for such a short time of TV use. I have asked for a refund, but was told it is out of warranty. In other words, "tough luck". I am 82, crippled and trying to survive on Social Security. Where can I go to get help?

I received a 70" TV from my son for Christmas in 2013. I live in a different city so I didn't get it hooked up until February 2014. TV worked OK... had some glitches but I've never owned a smart TV before so I just chalked it up to that. Well, on July 13, 2015 the picture went dark... I still had the sound but the picture was dark. My son had purchased an extended warranty plan through Square Trade so I filed a claim online and was told I would be called back in an hour. I was waiting for the call and noticed there were some complaints about my problem so I called Vizio. I was told that they could replace my TV with a factory serviced one and my extra warranty would kick in after the TV was delivered. Of course they only give a 90 day warranty on factory serviced TV's.

I bought a 65" Vizio HD smart TV from Best Buy less than two years ago. It now has a blue line that runs vertically down the middle of the TV. According to Vizio, it's a defect but since it's over a year old, there is nothing they can do. It will cost more to fix than replace! I do not recommend this product!

We bought the 60 inch 4k TV in November of 2014. July 9th it starts going off and on by itself, but never stays on. I call Vizio on July 10th, they diagnose it on the phone and tell me they are sending someone to fix it. Mind you, they have already ordered the part because they know what is wrong with it! Call in on the 20th and the part had a problem with delivery. Called back on the 23rd, now the technician had an emergency! They do not know when someone will be out! I will never buy a Vizio product again!

E320-A1 - Purchased this flat screen tv, hooked up everything per the instructions, working great. Then four months later went to turn on the tv with remote, would not come on. Went to turn on with the power button on the side of the TV, would not come on. Checked all the power cords, everything good but TV would not come on. Called the dealer where I purchased it (COSTCO OF DURHAM), was told has to send to manufacturer. Called manufacturer, was told had to pay to ship to them a new TV that should work longer than 4 months. Serial number on tv is LTTDNLEP1504289.

In Nov. of 2014, I purchased A Vizio (E3901BO) TV. It was our first flat screen TV. We like many others bought our TV at a Brick and Mortar store. We had been pleased until the july 4th weekend 2015. When as we were watching our picture went blank. Tried to do hard start etc. nothing worked. Knowing I was past the ninety days for electronic returns the brick and mortar return was out. However our TV was less than a year old. We called our friends at VIZIO. Customer service had us go through a check and they determined we had a bad circuit board. We were given a service number and told we could expect to be scheduled for a local repair person within two weeks. Within that time a service person called and visited. He informed us the television was unrepairable and VIZIO would have to send us a (not new one) but a over stocked one???

Purchased a Vizio TV for my grandchildren. Lasted less than 2yrs, screen went black with no sound... Seems like from all the reviews Vizio only last for maybe 3yrs top!! In my 60 years on this earth this is the worst TV I have ever purchased. Less than 2yrs come on... What a piece of crap. :-( :-( Buyers beware!!!! :-( :-(

I purchased this TV because my son suggested it. Boy, did I make a mistake. Seems like everything I buy here lately breaks down after the warranty expires. Don't anybody make things to last anymore? The sound keeps going and coming. And yes, I've followed the instructions in the book. Very disappointed.

I bought the Vizio E500 B1 not even 3 months ago from Sam's Club. We were watching t.v and all of a sudden there was a loud buzzing noise then boom. Long story short called Vizio USA. Parts are on order for replacement. It's been over 2 weeks and parts aren't here and HD Repair has no tracking number on parts.

I bought a 50" Vizio Smart TV. I have on average 8 to 12 Mbps internet speed but this TV would not stream a movie and when I would test the connection, the TV speed was less than 1 Mbps. Called Vizio and tech had me run some test and decided I had a problem. So they sent a repairman and he replaced all the circuit boards EXCEPT the WiFi board, go figure. So I called back and I get another who runs me through some the same tests as before, plus a couple of others and he decided I should get a replacement TV. So I get a refurbished TV with the old TV warranty. Well this TV drops channels and loses high def and has to be reset all the time. I have friends who have Vizios and like them, but I will not be buying another one.

Purchased a 50 in. Vizio smart tv at the beginning of Feb 2015. June 26, 2015, I went to turn the tv on and the indicator light flashed but the unit never turned on. I called customer service and was advised that they would send someone out to fix it within 6 business days. I waited 2 weeks for someone to come out. Now less than a week later, the tv is having the same issue. I will never purchase another Vizio product.

M322i - B1 Model Purchased 4/2015. The internet feature worked marginally at time of purchase. Haven't used it since then but now will not work at all. Shows a network connection, various download speeds when tested but will not load Netflix, Hulu, Amazon. Spent hours on the phone with Vizio tech support & the tech determined it should be returned for credit. Asked if I purchased at Sam's Club, said most people have. Tech said I probably wouldn't need a receipt, due to providing the serial #. I take it it's fairly easy to do this. When I'm transferred to customer service, I'm told an email will be sent to verify that boxes will be sent to mail the TV to Vizio, the manufacturer, for credit. Never get the email. Call back. Wrong email address. Give correction, receive email.

My sound constantly in and out. Call customer support, pleasantly talked me through to get sound back. Don't watch TV much due to warm weather. Turn TV on today sound in and out again. Call customer service, close today "Saturday". I never had this issue, all my TVs are Vizio. I didn't get a warranty. Hope I don't get stuck with a lemon. Had TV 7 mos. I would like to replace this TV.

I purchased a Vizio e480b model from Walmart. My complaint is I can't hook DVD player or gaming devices to it as it says no signal. I am crazy frustrated trying for hrs to work, powering off TV like they said and plugging back in etc. Can anyone help with this problem????!

I have had no problems or issues with my VIZIO M492i B2 49 Inch 1080p 240 Hz TV. My friends who have seen many different similar size and types of Smart TVs tell me that the picture on my set is superior to what they have seen elsewhere. I am very happy with my purchase through the internet. Delivery right at my door. I believe the high renewal ratio of 240Hz makes all the difference.

Bought a 'Smart' Vizio TV 32 inches about 2 years ago and one day the remote stopped working (or so I thought). No big deal, happens. Went on Amazon and bought another brand new remote. Ha, no the remote worked fine, it was the TV that was messed up. Called Customer Service and they told me to either fix it at a local repair store or just suck it. To fix the sensor would cost more than the TV that I got for a "deal". Now I have the TV turned on 24 hours a day and dream of the day it will just completely stop working and I can chuck it onto someone's head and then my wife will let me buy a new one.

Model VIZIO E601i-A3 60-inch: This TV was nice enough for the price, however it did not last long. 14 months after purchase (conveniently outside of the warranty period) horizontal lines began to appear on the bottom portion of the screen. Doesn't look like much in the pictures, but believe me, your eyes cannot stop focusing on these lines. Multiple conversations with Harley at Vizio customer service amounted to him telling me that this was an LCD panel failure which would be more expensive to fix than buying a new set. My options were to "live with it" (his words) or he could give me a discount on a new unit. I'm sorry, but I would have to be really dense to purchase a new set from a company that does not stand behind their products. This will be my last Vizio purchase and I cannot recommend this company to anyone. I should have bought a named brand from a reputable company.

Purchased our Vizio TV at Walmart and had for about 13 months. We were watching tv one day and the screen just went to navy, but you could still hear the audio. We called Vizio customer no-support, and they told us they could send someone for almost $400.00 dollars to see what was wrong. So they wanted about 1/2 of what we paid for the thing a year ago to come look at it, see if they could find out what was wrong. We went online and found a couple of sites that suggested some boards that could be replaced and that may fix our problem. Two weeks later and several boards later, still no tv. After looking around, seems to be a common problem with the Vizio brand. DO NOT BUY, they may be cheaper, but remember you get what you pay for. Makes me so angry to pay over $800.00 for a tv that lasted a little bit more than a year.

Master channel directory dumped all my saved channels while changing between OTA broadcasts. Contacted Vizio and they advised 'hard reset' and 'power-down' procedures. This sort of worked. Only a few OTA channels were found, and they too stopped working. Performed the reset and power down procedures ten times and got...nothing. I bought the set [from Best Buy] in January 2014 and it is now July 2015. So, it only worked for 18 months [with about 20 hours of operation per week]!! I'm asking Vizio to replace or repair w/o any expenses unto me. Waiting for reply, but not holding my breath since they will play the 'out of warranty' name game. Two stars; not for the service (which has yet to redeem itself to me), but a modern TV should not break-down after 18 months of use.

On June 12, 2014 I order 60 inch E-Series TV from Vizio. My first TV I was so excited, I buy mount and clear space in living room. When TV arrive I help delivery man come upstairs - TV was SO BIG! HE ask me if I watch World Cup on TV and I say YES!!! Then when Open TV everything looks good on outside. I set up TV and plug in to start watch movie and TV screen is broken!!! COMPLETELY BROKEN LIKE GLASS. I call Vizio and they allow me to return but WILL NOT PICK UP. TV IS SO BIG, HOW AM I TO RETURN??? I drag tv to shipping store and return, so heavy and difficult I almost hurt back very bad.

I purchase a Vizio E601i about 2 years ago and I have been having issue with the TV keeps randomly powering off. I called Vizio support on numerous occasions and I can't get this issue resolved and no one seem to know what is the issue. There are numerous complaints on google about this issue and Vizio stated they never heard of this issue. BUYER BEWARE. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS BRAND.

Well I got a smart tv last year. VIZIO - the worst mistake I could make. The tv went black. I could hear the sound but the screen stay black. Very disappointed with vizio. Never again. 0 stars.

Purchased a 60" inch Vizio alleged "smart TV" from Walmart less than two years ago... The power light is on, but the TV DOES NOT POWER ON! Contacted customer support and the representative was rude and yelling at me! I will never purchase another item that begins with the letter V! I've never experienced such incompetence - whatever happened to the customer's always right. This was a thousand dollars flushed down the toilet! Their products are complete and total garbage and if you are one of the lucky ones to have a trouble free set after eighteen months... don't be fooled. Your nightmare's just around the corner!

I paid 700 for a 55-inch Vizio and one year and three months later, the picture went completely out. I called tech support and they gave me a number to call but they didn't service my area, so had to take it to a service company myself. He checked the back light and it was fine so he ordered a new main board and put it in but that didn't fix it. So he said the only other thing it could be is the display screen and that would cost as much as a new TV. I called the company back and complained that the TV only lasted one year and three months and all they said was sorry, it's out of warranty. I will never buy a Vizio again!!!

I will never buy a Vizio product ever again. My Vizio E500i-A1 "smart tv" suddenly stopped working. The remotes doesn't work, the power button on the side of the tv doesn't work. I can't call up any of the menus, can't use the streaming apps, nothing. A friend looked at it and he thinks something must have blown on the motherboard. Vizio customer service had me doing contortions to get them the serial number to "confirm my purchase information" (the serial number is in tiny numbers on the back of the tv) after I had already told them I bought the tv two years ago and didn't have an extended warranty.

Hi, I came home and turned on my tv and the screen would stay black. The led is white. That means that the TV was on but the screen would stay black. Can someone please tell me what I should do.

We purchased a 50 inch Vizio Ultra HD TV in early March. One night toward early April I finally sat down after getting my house cleaned and my son to sleep for some relaxing and TV time. I turned it on only to find sound but no picture. I called Vizio and they were less than helpful since I had somehow misplaced my receipt. I still don't understand why they couldn't look up a proof of purchase from the serial number like most companies do.

I don't recommend this product to anyone. Imagine you just bought a TV and switching from the old style, big, black TV and the picture quality is worst and I kid you not. Then you call their technical support for some sort of guidance and tell you it's the cable people's fault cause their signal is not strong enough. All sorts of crap but a defect in their product. It's worse when you have company and everyone is asking you why your TV look like that. Vizio products are garbage and their customer service is even worse. I do not recommend them. Stay clear unless you like frustration. No joke!!!

We purchased the new 50" Vizio T540P. Within 2 days there was no picture, returned TV. We got the second and within 110 days the same thing happened. Turned it on and no pic., no sound and the power light would cycle on and off all by itself. Called Tech support and asked if anyone was having the same problem. The Tech. acted like he had never heard of such a thing, and they would send someone to fix it within 3 days. Still waiting!!!!!! I have read all of the complaints and this problem seems to be a common one, where is the consumer protection. Please help!!!!!

Purchased a TV 6/8/2013 from a brick and mortar store. Supposedly this TV was one of THE best. The Vizio M501d-A2r Smart 3D TV. TV hangs on wall in family and is rarely watched. Well... the other day the TV decided to no longer turn on. 2 YEARS!!! I am not going to bash this company... I am very upset about this, and I am not willing to pay 150-300 for someone to come to my house and tell me what I already know (but will not say because I will not bash this company). However lesson has been learned. I'll never buy another TV if it isn't a Samsung.

Our Vizio Smart TV is a piece of junk. It will NOT access the internet. Do not waste your money on this TV. Of course, it's just 25 days out of warranty. So naturally Vizio gave us the brush off & the phone number for a TV repair company that wants over $200 to fix this worthless piece of junk. I've never experienced this problem with other TV brands. First & last time I purchase a Vizio. This is ridiculous.

Black Friday 2013 which was a year and a half ago I purchased a 70" LED Smart TV on sale for $998 the day after Thanksgiving at Walmart. I spent approximately $1200 after tax and shipping. Model # E701i-A3e Serial # LFTRNXCP3800288. On June 15th, 2015 half of the TV went out. The color has a dark orange tint from the middle of the screen all the way to the left and the images on the far left trail. I called Vizio that same night and they told me they've never heard of this issue and it was most likely non-repairable. They could offer me a "discount" only. I didn't agree to anything because I wanted to investigate some more. I went to Wal-Mart to see what they could do and they said nothing because I didn't "register the extended warranty." I called back 6/20/15 and they offered the same 70" TV that I had purchased for $1130 no shipping & no tax and I tried to understand the discount percentage and they weren't able to break that down.

Won my 32" Vizio tv in a charity event silent auction in 2012. TV worked well for the first year and a half then started having the same trouble as most other unhappy vizio owners. Sound but no picture. And just like all of you I was told by customer service, that I have no warranty, but for an additional 189.00 they will send out a technician. Are you kidding me! You manufacture and market a product that you can't warranty for more than a year. I had a 22 year old JVC that was still working when I gave it away when I got the Vizio piece of crap. The irony of this is, when you call vizio customer service, they make it a point to tell you how proud they are that their technical support services are based right here in the good ole USA. Wow, if that's all they have to be proud of, they aren't going to be in business very long. The real question of the day is where are vizio products manufactured?

I purchased this 55 inch Vizio just 5 months ago. Turned it off last night. Now today it won't come on... AT ALL! I did the whole resetting cycle thing and NOTHING. I am a working single mother of 1. I bought this headache of a TV with my hard earned money and I am pissed. I don't even care to call Vizio and get myself frustrated after seeing all these complaints. There's no point. I just can't believe this! I'm so upset and disappointed. Never again.

Problems with Smart TV freezing, and looking for firmware update. At the suggestion of Vizio's twitter feed indicating a new version of firmware was out, as suggested I emailed techsupport@vizio.com and received an automated email response indicating a support ticket was opened. Later I was emailed back by ** at customer service who indicated I needed to do a factory reset on my smart TV, with an email stating my request ticket was closed.

Purchased Vizio model #E320-A0 in October 2013 from Wal-Mart. Had problems with the volume from the very start (volume set where I wanted during a TV show, but would blare during commercials). But since the picture showed so clear, I decided to live with it. Recently the TV went black, no picture but sound. I didn't purchase the extended warranty. It seems to be the norm for Vizios to last about a year and a half. Sure wish I had checked out this site first. Will never purchase a Vizio product again.

My settings also change off by themselves, I have mine on an antenna with no cable hooked up and yet when I turn it on it says it's downloading data. How could this be, you ask? Well they monitor people through them. This isn't a joke, check your settings and really pay attention to privacy policy because with this TV you don't have any privacy, you just gave it up when you click okay. This company needs to be taken to court in a class action lawsuit by the citizens of the United States of America against them or their country of origin.

I purchased a 70 inch Vizio from Sam's Club and after about 6 months noticed a black line through the screen. A few months later there was another black line about an inch from the first. Now this morning I see a third black line on the bottom of the screen. This is my first and last Vizio anything. Their products bite :( With a capital suck.

Most horrific TV we've ever owned. Not user friendly at all. When attempting to switch from TV to dvd it takes several minutes of "angling" the control to get it to recognize the device. I get furious every time we try to watch a dvd. Attempted to call Vizio and was on hold forever and didn't get to speak with anyone. Will probably trash this tv and buy a different brand. I won't sell it because I don't want to subject anyone else to the ** we've been through.

Two weeks ago I bought a 55 inch TV M 1.0 series (this will be my 3rd VIZIO) but... this one. My big screen T.V. has a problem. I turn it on and it turns off. After about 6 or 7 times it may stay on... This T.V. was bought only TWO WEEKS. Hello only 2 week old, and I am jumping through hoops to get it replaced... Help.

Worked for a year and a half. When you press power button on TV or remote the power light on the TV would light up but no sound or picture. The set box lights up so I know that is working. When I try to shut off the TV it does not respond -- the "ON" light just stays lit. I contacted the store where I purchased it from -- Costco in Woodbridge, Virginia -- and was told there was nothing they could do because the warranty had run out. Their advice was to trash it. No more Vizio products for me.

I purchased a 55-inch Vizio TV in April of last year. Mind you I am not a major tv watcher but got this to watch sports and have in my home. 13 months later, my tv goes blank out of nowhere. Didn't know what happened - Called Vizio and back/forth customer service being told this then that, etc... It's 2 months later and they offered me the same TV for $100 less than I can buy it online. C'mon... Customer Service Team was so up and down with what they were saying. Manager was good at talking because he's been through this situation a plethora of times but I could sense the bull in the air. Why would I spend another $500 (so 1200 in 15 months) on a Vizio?

After 14 months, the TV developed a blurry double picture that blinks in and out every couple of seconds. Have had Geek Squad and the repair folks Vizio recommended look at it. It has a bad T-Con board...a part that is non-replaceable! Called Vizio and spoke with rude customer service person. Absolutely no help...junk product, bad customer service!

Purchased Vizio E480-B2 12/2014 Target Department Store - got me in the bull's eye! Trouble started with the app software around 4/2015. Did not get extended warranty (bad idea), have not abused the set in any way, using the stand it came with. It likes to go black when Netflix button is pressed, and it also forgets the remote often. YouTube app causes many problems now, it is practically unusable. I have been doing factory resets to get it to work, these are starting to be ineffective now. Date is 6/25/2015. $500 for a 4 month set...? Bummed. I am told by a repairman friend and fellow tech that these all have Samsung parts in them, so I don't even know what brand to move on to now. I guess I will try to find parts myself, or give up watching the idiot tube and take up pottery.

I purchased my first Vizio TV about fifteen months ago and I'm having problems with it shutting off. Along with it shutting off it is now developing other problems such as the lip-synch and picture going black when going to a commercial or coming back on to a program. I knew I was out of factory warranty so I called out a repairman and it cost me a $100 just to tell me that it was a circuit board and would cost me more to fix it than I paid for the TV and that was if they could even get the part.

We bought this Vizio in Dec 2014. Took it (kind of remotely to our vacation home). We used it on weekends only until June 2015. It broke... would not turn on. They can't get a service technician to come out to fix it. I have called the 800 number several times and they just tell me the supervisors are on the phone and will call back. They never call back. Only buy this TV if you want to throw away every penny you spent on it. So far, we have!!! Tired of being in a terminal holding pattern. We are to call back every few days to see if they can get someone to come fix it.

So ** tired of waiting for this piece of crap to turn on. My TV back in the seventies turned on quicker. Same thing when I change from TV to different HD port. IT TAKES FOREVER WTF??? How cheap and slow of a processor did they put in their TVs. It is **. Will NEVER buy Vizio again!!! This tv is SLOW!!!

Bought Vizio TV 2-23-14 & it has gone black & now won't come on. Customer service isn't helpful & they are very rude! I'm calling again tomorrow to see if I can talk to someone else that can help! These TVs are junk! They rig them to go out after a certain amount of time. We should get together & sue for knowingly how faulty they are! Shame on you people of Vizio.

I purchased a Vizio 60" this year February 2015 and immediately it started to just shut off right during a show or while watching Netflix. This TV is horrible, I'm pissed. I wasted my money on it. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE A VIZIO PRODUCT EVER AGAIN!!! Y'all need to stop making this. I'm disgusted.

After 6 months to the day our Vizio 55 Ultra HD Smart TV stopped working. Screen goes black but it still has sound. Took it to Best Buy with the receipt, they wouldn't touch it until I call Vizio customer service. They had me do a few checks, question me on if I had it connected correctly, etc... They finally decided it was a backlight issue and would have to get it replaced. Great, I said I would take it back to where I bought it since I really was doing business with Best Buy. They told me they would have to ship me a refurbished TV and I couldn't go back to Best Buy.

Ever since February my Vizio Television keeps sporadically updating. I've contacted CS and the Techs have tried different things, saying it was a Known issue. Then after the 5th or 6th person contacted me. I was asked if I had an extended warranty... which I did purchase on their site when I registered my TV. At which point.. the Tech I guess decided they no longer wanted to fool with trying to resolve this issue and told me to contact my warranty company. So I did. The issue isn't even one of the things last is listed on their site as an an 'issue'. And at best they are telling me if I FIND a Technician, and PAY TO GET IT FIXED.. they will reimburse me.

I have 3 Vizio tvs. My 55" in my living room has blown out speakers after only 1yr and 3 months. I didn't get the extended warranty because I didn't think I would need to. My 42" tv is in my bedroom. It froze up so I turned it off and went to turn back on and it won't. It is under a year old. I will NEVER EVER buy another Vizio tv.

I've read a lot of what I call "Vizio hatred" and don't understand why the tv's get such seemingly consistent poor ratings. I purchased 2 Vizios well over a year ago, and thus far, I've had zero problems with them. The picture is razor sharp, sound is good, and overall performance is more than satisfactory. I'm a no-frills kind of person, so the absence of a huge menu of "apps" and other assorted bells and whistles doesn't bother me at all.

Regret buying a Vizio TV. Always bought Samsung or Sharp and never disappointed. This one is going to the cottage and will buy a new one. Colors are not sharp. Very cheap remote control. Pictures not as defined as our Sharp TV.

Worked for a year and a half. When you press power button on TV or remote the power light on TV would light up but no sound or picture. Found I could unplug for an hour and plug back in and it worked until I turned it off. After doing this 5 or 6 times, I only get the power light but never picture or sound. No more Vizio products for me.

We recently purchased a 70 inch VIZIO television. I received 9 June and it was installed on wall and connected to our satellite service late in the evening on 10June 2015. We immediately noticed internal smudge and marks inside the monitor at the bottom right of the screen. I contacted the VIZIO support via the above Website and experienced the WORSE customer service in my life. I was baffled because I have two other VIZIO TVs and never had any problems, so I assumed getting Support or Maintenance to get this issue resolved would not be a problem.

Vizio 70" 3D POS TV. I purchased my first Vizio tv from Best Buy about 16 months ago. And the other day I was watching tv and a red vertical line popped up out of nowhere. I called Vizio and they told me that the tv was "beyond economical to repair." Are you kidding me? A 16 month old tv is already trash. And their great customer service tells me they will offer a discount to purchase a new tv and they don't have an offer for the size and quality of tv that I currently have. I could buy the same tv from a local store for the same price. Vizio has crap products and crap customer service. I will never buy a Vizio ever again.

TV is 6 months old and developed vertical lines in the middle of the screen. Vizio is refusing to repair/replace TV saying it is not a manufacturer's defect and therefore not covered under warranty. They based this judgement on two pictures I took with my cell phone. They offered me a discount on another TV of $150 plus taxes in my area. I would never own another Vizio. I can buy a brand new Samsung for $219. They also refused to send me something in writing stating they would not cover it. I called a local repairman and he stated you cannot diagnose a problem from just pictures. When I told the manager this she stated that she does this all day and she knows what she is talking about and the repairman must not have her experience. I have no other recourse now but to throw this TV out and buy a better brand.

I bought my Vizio smart TV in January. After a week it wouldn't connect to the internet. After contacting Vizio Support, it took them a month to send a replacement TV. Now after 4 months, the TV had no sound. After contacting support, they are sending a repair person in a week. I have no faith the TV will work even if they fix it. It is horrible. I wish I never got it.

It is truly a piece of junk. We are taking it back to place of purchase right now. To begin with - when setting up - we have satellite tv - but had to set-up with cable... then black screen turned green - because color is burned out.

The TV powers on then immediately powers off. I've unplugged it and did the Vizio "power cycle" but to no avail. The TV is 1 1/2 years old. The old TVs I've had have lasted forever. I'm angry and fed up. I am not technologically inclined at all. I resent having to spend another $500 after just a year and a half.

I've had 2 Vizio TVs. No problems with the first one so I bought Vizio when it was time to upgrade. Nothing but trouble ever since. It works - but only if and when it feels like it. I can watch a DVD one night, but the next night there's no signal to the DVD player no matter what input I use. I can't even get any of the apps to work any more. They load halfway then freeze, then the screen goes black. This "smart TV" that cost me $1800 is 6 months old. Unfortunately I purchased a Vizio sound bar and surround sound system to go with it, which naturally doesn't work either. Vizio can bite me.

I have a E320-A1 Vizio TV. Suddenly have lost the closed caption feature. TV not receiving the signal for this feature, however I have other make TV's that do get the signal. Vizio technical support tells me it is my cable box they tell me it is my TV. Anyone else have this problem?

We purchased a 70" Vizio TV and after a few months a thin black like appeared in the center of the screen. Now totally black on the right side of the screen.

Bought the 60 inch smart tv, it lasted 1 and a half years. Bought a new 60 inch to replace the one that quit and got it home to find it had a broken screen, no damage at all on the outside of the box so it had to be damaged from the factory. If this is the quality they are coming out with I am done with this brand. My Black Friday special Emerson is still working fine and served for 3 years in the living room and now is our bedroom tv. Hello Samsung you are my best hope for quality.

Vizio TVs are pure junk especially the plasma models, they go out after approximately 2 years average.

Bought a Vizio 32" tv from Costco a while ago. Thought it a good one, BUT then, the sound would go off. Had to turn tv off and on to get sound back. Did this for a about two years. Then about 12 weeks ago it started turning off by itself. Turned it off last night, this morning it would not come on. IT DIED! So will go Monday and buy a new TV. {BUT, NOT A VIZIO} When I get the new tv hooked up the Vizio is going to the sand pits to have some bullet holes installed.

I bought a 70 in Vizio LED TV on Amazon January 2014...10 Months later it developed a thin black line thru the screen which I'm told was a bad Pixel. Vizio replaced the TV under warranty with a "restocked TV". Now 5 months later the TV has developed the same black line thru the screen! The replacement TV had a 90 Day warranty on it which I was never told. After several calls and long wait times Vizio offers to sell me a New TV for $100 less than I can buy it at my local Costco! That is their attempt at customer service! I will never buy a Vizio product and will spread the word on their poor products and poor customer service to everyone I know.

Vizio E550i-B2 tv - First off... I could not get the stand off to hang it on my stand. One of the screws were COMPLETELY stripped. There was nowhere for the Phillips screwdriver to grab hold. Second of all - the remote - only two buttons worked. I had to order a brand new one through Amazon. Lastly the WiFi is AWFUL. My Midcontinent is the 1.0 with wireless modem even through my living room and bedroom wall my Roku picks it up as does every phone, the iPad, the Kindle. You name it. Just not this TV. It will play for a short time then just drops it, then it would not find it at all... No internet showed up and I had to call and be told how to reset the television, therefore having to reinsert all my info for Netflix, Hulu, Spotify, Amazon etc...

I purchased a 42 in. Flat Screen TV from Wal-Mart about sixteen mos. ago and while watching one of my favorite shows the screen went black. The sound was crystal clear but no picture. I spoke with Vizio and was told to go back to Wal-Mart and retrieve a purchase order for them to service the TV. Once that was done there was no more contact in reference to my TV.

In Sept. 2014 after saving our money we purchased our first large screen TV a 55 inch Vizio flat screen smart TV. Immediately we noticed the sound did not match the mouth movement, we assumed it was because we needed to adjust a setting. We became familiar with the remote and settings and were able to improve it, however, noticed over time it would revert back. Additionally, the TV started blacking out, the whole thing would turn itself off. At first we thought it was a bad connection, or perhaps the cable company. We called the company to come and check all connections etc. after all it was a brand new TV it couldn't be the TV right? After 2 months of intermittent turning off and then not being able to turn it on again unless we unplugged everything and then replugged all connections, we realized it must be the TV.

Have purchased two 55 inch LED TV's in the last 2 years. Both have unexpectedly quit working. Can't even power them up. No explanation has ever been given. Heading back to Best Buy today to get new TV. Won't be Vizio this time.

When we turn it(vizio 50 led) on it has sound but no picture, we wait a week and it's fine until we shut it off.

Vizio Model E600i-B3 LED TV - I purchased my Vizio back on Sept 2014 and up until last month, April, it was working fine. In April the started to get a black screen with the message "no signal" after it was on in the morning for one hour. After turning the TV off for about a half hour, I would turn it back on and had a picture and it stayed on until late night. This happens every morning.

Single Dad of Four Daughters... doing volunteer work at their school for the last 5 years with three more to go. They had a fund raiser and was raffling off several items for the last month. One item was A Vizio 50 inch smart TV (they were raffling off a couple different brands). I won the Vizio... right out of the box it did not work. Called Vizio but was out of the 30 day return policy and of course there was nothing they were going to do about it even though when it was bought, they were told it was for a school fundraiser the following month. No one told the school who purchased that the box needed to be opened before thirty days. I could not understand why they would not do "the right thing", but after reading other reviews here, I see how they operate as a company.

My TV has been mounted on the wall for some time and I am very careful to not damage it. No one has physically touched it in months. I come inside to relax and watch the TV. The Vizio icon glows, but no screen and yet the sound plays. I research the issue and do as people suggest and nothing works. I call the customer service line and explain what is wrong, giving them the serial number. They determine that the back light is not working properly. He states it is more expensive to repair it and I should just buy a new one. I spend around a 1,000 dollars on this TV around 2 and a half years ago. And had I known that Vizio was renown for horrible products, I would have not given them a cent. If you need a TV, stay clear of Vizio. They design them to fail so you have to buy another one.

Purchased our 50" Vizio P502ui-B1 TV on Wednesday from Costco at 1:00 PM. Set it up and enjoyed it for several hours. That evening went to turn it on and nothing except a little white light blinking in the bottom left corner that soon turned off. Thinking that possibly it was our service connection, made an appointment with Comcast to take a look. They came the next day only to say the it was the TV and not the connection. Disappointed and uncertain about Vizio, we are returning the TV to Costco with many reservations about Vizio's quality. Considering Panasonic or Samsung as alternatives.

I would of gave a zero rating but there wasn't a place for it and angry doesn't do it justice. We bought the T.V. in November 2014 we had to get a replaced 3 times for the same problem then on the 4th they gave us a upgrade on the same T.V. We still have the same problem - dark spots on the screen, blurred picture - we had to keep sending pictures to them from live to dvr to dvd. All had the same picture so when I called to tell them I just want a tech to come out and look at it they actually told me they would not send someone out because it has to be a problem on our end.

Will never buy another Vizio tv again! Within three months of purchase tv picture quit working. Called customer service, did trouble shooting over phone for an hour then said will send you another tv - refurbished tv. Waited 7-10 days (working days) day 15 STILL NO TV! Please beware! You will get the runaround. Not worth the $500 we paid. Warranty and customer service no good. Vizio mission statement to customer needs to be followed by customer service and for the products.

I was very disappointed after buying one of Vizio's top of the line 3D television less than 3 years ago only to find out that they are no longer doing software updates. I am not able to watch Netflix anymore. They pretty much told me to buy a new TV. I spent $5,000.00 on the television and I feel as though the Vizio name has let me down. I put my trust in their brand. I was told by Netflix and other TV companies that my Vizio is relatively new. Most Vizio owners that I spoke with had the same problem no matter which model they had. They are not buying anymore Vizio's and neither am I. I think that the Vizio name brand will eventually go away as quickly as it came due to poor customer service.

On September 13, 2014, I bought a new Vizio 40 inch Smart TV at Best Buy. It was great for a few days but then it began to completely shut down. At first I thought maybe I had not connected it properly but that was not the problem. By the time the problem began I was beyond the 14 day return policy for Best Buy. So I called Vizio, got a complaint number and was told to call back if the problem persisted. I did make the second call and was told to keep track of the shut downs.

Bought a brand new 60" 4k TV two months ago. Hung it on the wall right away and 2 months later turn it on and it has hairline cracks and lines, no picture. Talk with customer service and they tell me there was a point of impact that caused it. Hmm no. They can tell it wasn't dropped and I surely would not throw something at it. I will never buy another TV from them as they told me I was out $1700 dollars. My cheap Dynex TVs have been great!! Customer service is horrible!!!

Vizio customer service is terrible. I bought a TV last Nov. 3 weeks ago it started turning itself off. It does this every 3 minutes!!! Called Vizio and they sent a guy to replace motherboard. Motherboard was DOA. Put my old one back in. Replaced the power supply. Still did the same thing. Turned off every 3 minutes. They ordered another part. Now, 2 weeks later I am told the part is on back order. Go figure. I called them again and they can't tell me when it will be in. I asked for a new TV. "Sorry, can't do that." I even purchased an extended warranty.

My 65 inch Vizio tv has 2 vertical lines running thru it. I have had my TV less than 2 and a half years. I paid $1,700.00 for it and it should have lasted more than 2 years. When we called them they said we didn't buy the warranty. If they only last 2 years they are junk. I wasted that much money on junk. Vizio doesn't have good quality TVs. I have to watch this till I can afford to get a Samsung. Hope it's soon. It bothers my eyes.

I didn't know VIZIO TVs were a disposable TV or I would never buy one. Never saw a TV last only 2 years. VIZIO needs to drop their prices to $1 because that's all they are worth... Thanks a lot Vizio. I don't know about anyone else but I can't afford to buy a TV every 2 years. If someone asks me about a Vizio TV I will tell them if you can buy it for $1 then have at it because that's all they are worth.

On September 22, 2014, I purchased what I thought was to be the most awesome television I had ever seen. A VIZIO LED HDTV. Now, this is suppose to be a "smart" tv. I have had nothing but problems since I purchased the darn thing. Unfortunately, I was not keeping very good track of names, etc when the first problem arose, however, as it kept happening (different problems) I began to keep very good records. It all began within a couple of months after purchase and now I have 4 different "case" numbers from them and countless calls to customer service. All of which I have names, badge numbers, etc. It is now April 28, 2015 and I have yet to have my problems resolved with this tv. The customer service reps tell you what you want to hear and do not stand by what they say at all.

I bought a 22 in. Vizio smart tv. It was never very good, but now I can't use it at all. I bought it to go in my room. I don't have cable and I don't want a DVD player in my room, just a simple smart tv. But the shows never stay on, I get booted off or it says NO SIGNAL. I know it's the tv and not my wireless internet cause I have no problem with my 2 other smart tv's, my iPod or iPad. It's not worth trying to save a little money you end up spending more cause you have to go out and buy another one.

Purchased Vizio 70 inch TV on 11-20-2014, one morning would not power up. Still under warranty I called the company, they sent a repair crew out. They laid the TV on a table, changed out 2 circuit boards {power boards}, stood the TV up, plugged it in, it powered up. However the screen was now cracked, had color on half of the screen, the other portion was black. The repair crew called Vizio reporting the problem. They then called me saying they would send me a replacement out and would talk about it the next day. Vizio instructed the repair crew to remove the 2 power boards due to the cracked screen

I purchased a 60" Vizio smart TV from Wal-Mart in November 2013. By Jan 2015 the TV started acting up. There will be sound but no picture then there will be picture and no sound. In the middle of the movie it turns off by itself and takes awhile before resume, then flickering. Now the TV is a little over a year and it's dead. I send the company's numerous emails however they didn't answer. Today I was finally able to reach them by phone and was told the warranty ran out therefore it will cost me $379.59 to repair this TV. I would not recommend this product to anyone. Vizio products are very poorly manufactured. I will not buy another Vizio product ever again... Sorry!

M50 tv/tv stand - I bought a 50" Vizio TV almost exactly 2 months to the day, or should I say night, that about 3 o'clock in the morning I hear something crash to the floor. I get up to investigate and the stand that came with the TV had broken, the TV crashed to the floor and the screen broke in multiple places. I called the company I purchased my TV through, who referred me to Vizio customer service because the TV came with a 1-year manufacturer's warranty. When I finally get a Vizio customer service rep. on the phone I explain my situation. She informs me that even though the TV model I purchased was a new model, that there were no other reports of that happening so it had to have been my fault the stand broke. I was then placed on hold for about ten minutes.

I purchased my Vizio 70-inch TV from Sam's Club on 02/24/14, I was watching TV and without no warning my screen turned black after only having my TV for 14 months. I contacted Sam's Club and Vizio explained what happened and was told since my warranty expired almost 2 months they would not stand by their product and nothing could be done. 1700$ down the drain - still pissed off.

Purchased a Vizio 70 inch TV a year and a half ago and the picture went out. They told me the best thing I could do was buy a new TV.

My son bought me a Smart TV two months ago and it is now not working. It will not come on. All I get is a black screen. In looking on their website I see that they have this same issue on other TV's of different sizes. I called them to replace the TV and all I got is the runaround from their people. I was told I would get a refurbished TV when this TV is only two months old. This is not right!!! Their service people are rude and when you ask for a supervisor they tell you they won't talk to you. My son has all the credit receipts for this and if needed I can get them.

Panel failed, 3 months out of warranty. Vizio states it would be more cost effective to replace TV, basically. So sad. Too bad. Should have paid more for an extended warranty to guarantee their inferior product and say they sold it at a bargain price, add an extended warranty and the 2300.00 I paid for the TV could have bought any brand. WON'T EVER BUY VIZIO PRODUCTS AGAIN. BUYER BEWARE, NO CUSTOMER SERVICE WHEN IT COMES TO STANDING BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS. Best Buy should make extended warranties mandatory on Vizio products if that's Vizio's only way to justify the purchase of their products.

Purchased a 42" smart tv from Vizio. Sound started cutting out when we changed the channel when it was less than a year old. Called Vizio and opened up a case before the year warranty ended. The guy from Vizio said that since we opened a case before the warranty ended that they could still replace it or fix it. They had us trouble shoot to no avail. After running us around and making us do all this trouble shooting, we give them the proof of purchase only to be told that it's out of warranty and they won't fix or replace it AND also that our case had been closed. They said that they could connect us to a company that fixes tv's. But of course we would have to pay for it. They gave us zero notice of closing our case.

I bought my Vizio smart TV about 2 months ago. Everything worked fine for about a week, but then I tried to connect to Netflix and none of my Netflix's servers work. When I exit out of the Netflix app, I have to unplug my TV because my remote doesn't seem to work after connecting with the Netflix app. This is very frustrating because I just purchased this TV and can't enjoy anything that I would love to watch. Please help me fix this.

My son purchased this model for my husband and I, Oct 2013. We got it X-mas 2013 and set it up in our bedroom. Loved the television. In Jan-Feb. 2015 I thought my eyes were going. I couldn't see faces on the television very well. My husband was watching Hercules in March 2015 and I really thought I was going blind. I tried fixing the picture and became concerned. A commercial came on with an Easter basket and then it became VERY clear. There was a 10" plus dark line in the middle of the television. I was happy it was still under warranty with Costco. I called and they connected me with Vizio. Vizio's response was "we will replace the TV with a floor model or refurbished television". I called Costco and said this is unacceptable. The rep. at Vizio confirmed mine wasn't a isolated incident. This is a secondary use television. How can a television crap out in 13 months?

Vizio TVs are junk. Do not, repeat, do not waste your money buying a Vizio TV. They only last a year before you start having screen problems.

I was talking with rep tonight more than hour trying to set up my new Smart TV. And this representative did not help me at all. She does not know anything about this TV! Then she said she will transfer me to another specialist, then I was disconnected. After that I dialed the same number and have heard the message: "Our office is currently closed". It's very smart way to walk away when you don't know the answer! I don't have time to waste for this terrible tech support. I'm working all day. I'm very disappointed by this customer service... I don't know who can help me if there is "no signal" on the screen and I cannot use any applications even when I set up WiFi on this TV and it shows strong signal. It seems like I should return this TV...

TV on off becomes inoperable. Vizio will not accept that the TV is bad only that signal from home network and U-verse must to be to blame. Will not work on TV unless I take it down from the wall. I'm sixty years old and have back and knee problems. What does the Americans with disabilities act say about this BS?

Bought a 3D Vizio TV. After 3 yrs 3D went out. Everyone at Vizio I called blamed it on the DVD. Even though I had 2 new DVDs installed, new HDMI cables, Vizio even blamed the cable company. I finally got a serviceman out and he confirmed the 3D capability was shot to hell. What a waste of money and time to a low life company who sells crap to its customers. Don't buy a Vizio TV. Save your money - buy reputable Sony, Philips, etc.

I recently tried to connect a Samsung Blu Ray player to my E422VLE Vizio Smart TV. The TV advertises that it works with HDMI devices, but my Blu Ray player wouldn't connect. This TV is about 3 years old, but the Vizio Support team tells me that it should work with 1080p inputs (which my Blu Ray player is), however, not every device will work. Sometimes there are "compatibility issues". I tried other HDMI cables, and the Blu Ray player still wouldn't work. Other devices like Apple TV managed to work with my Vizio, so I know it's not a hardware issue on my TV.

Purchased 32" Vizio Smart TV with one year warranty. After one year and three weeks the TV totally quit (NO picture, NO sound, No menu, No backlight, Nothing). Vizio said they would repair it for free with it being so close to warranty. After a week I heard nothing from them so I called them back and was told they could not repair it for free and gave me a number to call for repair. The repair quote was that it would be at least $189.50. The TV new only cost $300. I will never buy a Vizio TV again.

We bought a 50 in, 4k, ultra HD TV in February. Then we needed to move so put the TV back in the box to move. Got to our new home. Took the TV out to set it up and watch a movie with our kids. Plugged it up and turned it on. The V for Vizio came up and then the screen spider webs. Call the warranty ppl cuz we bought a 3 yr extended warranty and also called Vizio and neither one of them could do nothing saying, "Oh, you had to have damaged it." What is the use of having a warranty if they won't do anything?

I purchased a 55 inch Vizio smart flat screen TV 3 and a half months ago. Three days ago 3/28/2015 I was just watching TV all of a sudden the screen cracked. Nothing hit it because I live alone and I’m 53 years old and on disability. Well I brought it back to Walmart and they said the 30 day warranty was past and told me to call Vizio because I have a year warranty with them. I immediately called Vizio and explained what happened. The person who I spoke to said they don't cover cracked screens even when I told her “nothing hit the tv it just shattered watching it.” I will never buy anything from walmart and definitely I will never buy Vizio again.

Purchased a VIZIO 42" Smart TV from WALMART, November 2013. This week, the set displayed a horizontal, grey line across the center of the screen. Neither WALMART (90days) nor VIZIO would do anything to remedy the matter since the WARRANTY was 3 months dated beyond. I find this policy and lack of CUSTOMER SERVICE to be INTRINSIC of why AMERICA IS FAILING! Sell shoddy, MEXICAN or CHINESE products that FAIL after WARRANTY and give them the "CUSTOMER SHUFFLE"! I expect a company to stand behind their products, not "DUCK" away as these two have. NEVER, EVER buy a VIZIO PRODUCT!!!

I purchased a 60" Smart Vizio in 2013 from Walmart; purchased it online so saved $100. It cost $800. Now it is March 2015. A couple of months ago it started making random popping sounds when being turned on or off. Then a couple of days ago while I was watching it, it made an explosive sound and went off. I wouldn't have been surprised if parts went flying. Thank goodness it turned itself off because I was afraid to touch it.

After a few months of using the TV, I encountered lines on the screen and it sometimes freezes but I kept using it, and now it is working perfectly. I love the picture, the color and everything. I even ordered a Vizio sound bar and never had any issues after that.

My Vizio E261VA, Razor LED flat screen TV, serial number; LTTUGGMN380295, roughly two years old would not display any image one day. The power button works to turn on the power indicator LED but there was audio or video output. This is surprising to some degree. I was expecting this product to work for many years.

I hate my Vizio smart TV - the remote is very user unfriendly, the buttons are hard and it has to be aimed perfectly at the spot on the TV. It came with a limited number of apps and new ones cannot be added - Vizio also has its own version of apps, e.g. is Netflix. Apple's app is much more user friendly. I will never purchase another Vizio product.

We purchased this tv from Best Buy on January 6, 2015, brought it home, hooked it up and enjoyed it mostly until March 12, 2015. There were times it the volume would cut out on it, but turning it off and back on would take care of that issue. Then on March 12, it was on, working fine, and then just turned itself off. It immediately turned itself right back on and did this cycle of events the entire time it was plugged in without end. After running errands that day, we came home to find it still in this quirky mode. I checked on-line, checked the book, and finally called Vizio for assistance. The customer service rep walked me through the list of troubleshooting options and then declared we would have a repairman calling in 3-5 business days to set up an appointment for him/her to come out to our home to look at it.

Purchased 40" Smart Vizio in Apr 2014. Began having problems with sound when playing dvds in Nov. Bought new dvd player. Same results. Bought new cables both types. Still problem. Called. Did fixes as they said. Same result. They say not their tv must be my equipment. REALLY?!

I bought a Vizio in 2012 w/ 2 year warranty - a 48in LED T.V. The T.V. worked fine for a few months then started making a crackle noise when you would turn the T.V. on or off. I didn't think much of it. Besides that no problems with the T.V. After that but about a year and half later I went to turn the T.V. on and a loud popping noise came out of the T.V. It wouldn't turn on! About an hour later it came on with no picture - just a black screen and then it fully died. After that I could not get the T.V. to work.

I'm over 65 years old and I'm not a technical person. If I still owned a VCR it would be blinking 1200!!! I own a S3821w-CO sound bar. I had a few problems with it (I think most of the time it's my fault), Customer Service is always fabulous with me. They are so patient with me. It takes me a little longer to figure out what they want me to do. I've never had a problem. I do not work for Vizio or being paid for this review. I own 3 Vizio TVs, they're wonderful, of course I don't know how to use all the extra functions. Friends tell me my 60 inch Vizio TV has the best picture they have ever seen - I think so too.

I purchased a Vizio television at the end of Nov from Best Buy. The beginning of March, the television stops working. I contact Vizio customer service because it is under warranty. They tell me that they must send me a re-certified television and it will be sent in 10 business days. I cancel a meeting and work from home on the day of delivery. I contact Manna freight, the shipping company, and they proceed to tell me that my delivery is running a little behind and that they will call me an hour before they arrive. At 445 pm I still had not received a phone call so I called them back and I was told that the television had been shipped back to Vizio and that they were sorry for the mishap. Furious I contact Vizio who gives me the run around and tells me that they will need to investigate and give me a call back the next day.

Television was bought December 2014 brand new and had to be replaced three times. I am on the 4th television and the screen has gone out. This was a new one from Vizio that was exchanged in august, less than a year old and it is garbage. Vizio refuses to admit they sell substandard cheaply made televisions and will not fix this one even though it is less than a year old. DO NOT buy vizio products. They are garbage.

This t.v is junk. I've called repeatedly to have it fixed or replaced and they claim it's my internet. It freezes up constantly. Kicks me off Netflix. Won't turn off completely. I need to physically unplug the back of the t.v. to turn it off. I will never buy another vizio product!

Purchased model E390-A1 39 inch Vizio TV on 3/7/14. Within 2 months of purchase the TV stopped powering on. Vizio sent a repair technician out who repaired the TV. It did power on after that and stayed on, however in the process of repairing it, she somehow pushed one of the hdmi ports so far back into the TV, it's inaccessible, leaving us with only 1 hdmi port. We didn't notice it until several weeks later, but we really only needed one hdmi port, so it wasn't a big deal at the time. Skip forward almost a year from purchase date... the one hdmi port we were able to use has now stopped working.

Bought a 70-inch ($1,900) Vizio (Model # E701i-A3) back in Sept. 2013. In Feb. 2015, the screen suddenly went completely blank. Still had sound - but no picture. Contacted Vizio and they basically told me I was out of luck and they could do nothing. I took it to a certified repair center and they looked at it and said that the CD panel is out and that there is no fixing it. They also added that they did research and it seems like a common problem with Vizio. I did some looking and there were a couple of models that had bad parts and they were 'recalling' - but I was informed even though I had the same issue that my serial number did not fall under that recall.

6 months bought a 40 inch smart tv. Does the auto turn off with timers set to off... Sometimes sound goes to high squeal, can only get rid of it by turning off power to tv. Now cannot turn tv off with remote. The CEO of this company needs to be jobless after reimbursing stockholders of lost dividends.

Vizio m3d650sv - $1800 piece of junk: 3 lines...have to replace the TV. No fix. Only had 2 years.

In general, companies don't stand behind their products anymore. Vizio is such a company. My buddy bought a Vizio TV just over a year ago. The 1 year warranty ended at the end of 2014. Just a few weeks into this new year, the TV suffered a fatal and unrepairable breakdown. The Vizio executive team basically said you're out of luck as your 1 year warranty is technically over, even though their TV only lasted 2500 hours when the norm is 50,000 - 100,000 hours. I would be embarrassed to be associated with such a shoddy product. This is America's so-called 'premier TV company'. This is what they say anyway. Things sure aren't made like they used to be.

This 60 in Vizio (2013 model) crashes repeatedly on web pages. It's nearly worthless except as a TV.
