I had a stuck pixel on one of the first plasmas Ive owned that developed the 3rd or 4th year I had it. It was white in color. Ive also bought an LED LCD tv and out of the box it had a cluster of 3 stuck pixel so i returned it. Seems to happen across many different imageing technologies.

It was quite common on LCD monitors. Manufacturers needed to communicate a special policy on the number of defect pixel that would allow warranty claims.

Then some manufacturers came up with zero-dead-pixel-warranties.

But they still do occur.

Yes your right. I believe Vizio is one of the brands with the zero dead pixel warranty

Don't any of them offer a repair / exchange service where a functional light engine (or whatever component) goes out immediately and you pay for repairs to yours which then goes on the shelf for the next one.

OR you can get your own back but you have double the service labor to swap it back and have to pay for the loan.
