Further to my earlier posts on this subject last week my local Sony authorised repairer collected my TV on Weds and has today confirmed that an 'inverter' has failed and that the only way to fix it is to replace the entire screen assembly. That this failure could have occurred in the first place is unbelievable enough, but they then told me that Sony are 'out of stock' of the required item. I rang Sony customer service who said they have a problem with spare parts supply which is currently unresolved. I will therefore be contacting the store I bought it from tomorrow seeking a replacement, the tv only just being 8 months old. They cannot expect a customer to go weeks without a working tv while Sony resolve their spares supply issues and I would have thought that when you take labour charges into account the cost of repair in this case would be close to the replacement cost of the TV.
It beggars belief that Sony are not only selling substandard faulty goods but also then not providing sufficient spares support to promptly rectify the resultant faults. This has totally destroyed any faith I may have had in the Sony brand and it is clear that their products should be avoided.
Has anyone else had a similar experience?
