This is a legitimate complaint against Vizio. Vizio representatives has made numerous promises to the consumer public, and prospective buyers of their products; of a release date for the new VP505XVT1A 50 inch plasma television. Vizio has been promising release of this model for many months now, but has failed to deliver. Myself along with many others, call into Vizio, and are given a release date, and that times continues to come and then pass with no release. Vizio has failed to give the public a justifiable reason, or any reason at all for this continued delay. I know there is a very easy solution, and that is for me to spend my dollars with another manufacture, which I will now do. Vizio representatives cannot be honest about their product. I hope your agency can get some information out of this company, and make them aware that they are making a bad name for themselves. Thank You.

Purchased a TV a year ago. The TV's digital tuner DIED. Returned the TV for repair and was sent a refurbished TV. Within a month, the DIGITAL TUNER on that TV DIED.

I would like to bring to your attention the below stated unresolved issue and my deep level of frustration and outrage regarding the unacceptable performance by Vizio and Vizio's customer service department. I purchased on April 9th, 2008 a 22" VIZIO Flat Screen HDTV (VO22LHDTV10A) at Costco in Culver City, Store# 479. Initially I was very pleased with the product quality until the speaker system on the above mentioned unit failed to work after five months of operation. According to recommended procedure, I contacted Vizio's customer service department to report the technical failure and to obtain the needed information to return the unit for repair. Customer Service assigned case# ** and I was told that the repair will take 5 to 10 days to complete. The unit was send to Vizio on September 8th, 2008 via UPS and was delivered on September 9th, 2008, corresponding UPS Tracking # **.
After not getting any feedback from Vizio by September 24th, I decided to contact the manufacturer to follow up on the repair status. I was told somebody would call me back the same day after checking on the status and inform me. I waited for two more days until September 26th without receiving any call back. I call Vizio again on the 26th and was told that the unit was still in repair and that I would receive an update the following week. Again, no feedback until I call on September 30th, at that time I was given a tracking number and was told that my TV would be repaired and ship that night. On October 1st, I called again to make sure that the TV indeed ship. My unit still was not shipped.
I was told by customer service that the TV would ship now on Oct. 2nd and was given a new tracking number. Later that same day, I received a call back from customer service telling me that my unit would not ship after all and that I would get a replacement TV now since they detected a malfunction on the panel (after all this time????) and that it would take another day or so. Needless to say, I did not hear anything until I called back on Friday, October 3rd. At this time, customer service told me that they would send a replacement out in the middle of the following week (approx. October 8th).
With all due respect, this situation and especially the way it has been dealt with, is absolutely and completely unacceptable and certainly, to say the very least, unprofessional. Being a business owner myself, I hope this letter will find receptive ears for your company's sake and hopefully future success. I was happy and excited to support a young up and coming American company such as you try to promote Vizio as you are trying to promote.. I haven't been approached numerous times to give my opinion about Vizio products to friends and family, I hate to say this but it has been a complete fiasco to deal with your company and I only can recommend caution buying your products. I will continue to move this problem along by calling daily, requesting final conclusion regarding this matter.

I plan on calling the Better Business Bureau and further report this unprofessional company. I need to have someone to call me in order for this situation to be resolved. I welcome an attorney to call me and provide me his Bar number that I know I am talking with the law and not someone from the call center a one man office. This is unacceptable treatment from this company. I have been on the phone on hold for over 32 minutes, I guess this is their MO for us to get tired of holding and not be helped. Please call me

Vizio flatscreen TV won't turn on, have checked with web site Fixya, recommend a new Main board be installed. TV is 13 mos. old. Many more complaints about the same thing from other customers. These TV's should be recalled!
I'm out $1,000.00 for a TV that doesen't even work.

Ok here is my horror story.
I purchased a 42 Vizio plasma.
Model #p42hdtv10a on 07/02/2006 on 02/05/2007 the color went out. It took VIZIO until 03/02/2007 to get my television replaced. Because they could not get ahold of there service tech, in my area to service my TV. Thet finally just replaced the TV. The installers hooked it up wrong. I re-did the hook up when I get home.
Now just before a year was up on the replacement TV. This one the screen went black. Soo far I have to wait untill a tech, calls me with a price quote to repair it. I was told that I might recieve a call by next week?
I was told when they finally replaced the first Tv. That it would be covered for a year from the day I recieved the replacement. Now I was told it is not covered anymore.
So I am never going to buy a VIZIO Television. And I am telling anybody I know who is shopping for a plasma not to get one from VIZIO.
I was on the phone for hours last time. This time I was only on the phone for one and a half hours and only spoke to 4 different people and one online with no second reply to be told I am not covered. Ans I was givin a number to call and outside party to repair my tv. I even asked them if they could just sell me the replacement card to fix it myself. I was not allowed to pruchase the replacement part. There is only three cards that run the unit. I just wanted the vidio card.
I have not been told how much repairs will cost. Well i just bought a television that so far lasts allmost a year. Not bad for $1299.99

Our Vizio 37 HDTV was one month passed its one yr warranty when it made a popping noise and went off. We called the customer serice center and were told we would be contacted in 24 to 48hrs for repair. About 10 calls to various numbers and 2 weeks later we finally received a call from a service rep asking if we had the parts that were shipped to us. He said he would have someone call us to set up the sevice time. Another day passed with no call from the sevice tech. It took 3 more calls before someone got back to us. Finally a service call was set up.
The tech showed up and replaced to boards. We turned on the TV and it was working fine. He left and 15 minutes later the TV turns off. It would turn back on and stay on for 1 to 2 minutes than go off again This was last Friday. Again we started with the phone calls to Georgia and got no answer we left a message. Called the tech he gaves us another number to call no answer. Called Vizio customer support. No answer again. In addition I had E-mailed customer support 2 times for help. Never got any response. We took the TV back to Costco and they gave us a refund. Vizio's 3 year. $159.99 care plan is worthless.
As of today no has responed to the messages that we left of Friday at the repair center or tech support. Question? How do they know what is wrong with your TV and what parts to sent when a tech has not even seen it? Bad service and a bad product.

Vizio failed to honor their Warranty. I bought their flat screen plazma TV. on April 1 2006. The set comes with a remote control. The remote did not work.I can't set up componentsor operate the set. I Emailed them www.vizioce.com and did not get a reply. I phoned them at 714 668 0588, the number shown on their warranty and waited 35 minutes they never picked up the phone. I tried to register the product and the WEB site did not work. I sent out more emails, and finally got a response. Press harder on the remote from Mr. Freidland. I did and the set up button got stuck under the frame of the remote.
Vizio can't seem to make good on a warranty for a $5 dollar remote but tried to sell an extended warranty for $140 dollars. The TV cost $1400. and the original worthless Warrant and remotev were supposed to be good for 1 year. Please help
I now have a $1400 TV that can't be used to operate a VHS/DVD player and from a remote control. To return to TV would cost me at least $200. To pack and ship back to Vizio in Calafornia.
