This is quite funny to me.
What is the point to companies having warranties any more if things should be repaired for free.
My breaks just went bad in my car unexpected i got them a li'l over a year ago does that mean i get them replaced for free???
Reading this makes me laugh some people have so much time to think of the stupidest SH**. If you have done your research you would no there is no possible way the tv would catch on fire.
I bet if you looked at every brand TV or any other electronic product you would see everything has some kind of issue. Yes these companies are big doe not mean they are perfect the amount of things sold to the amount that have issues is so min, yes it sucks when you have one with a issue but when a company try's to help at all when tv is out of warranty is pretty remarkable. God forbid companies do not replace every tv or product that has a repairable failure.
Some people need to grow up and stop thinking they are entitled to things.
I really hope you file a law suit and waste your money a company as big as Mitsubishi i'm sure has already got legal advise on what they are obligated to cover so best of luck with that, get a life and find something better to do!!!

You seem to think that because this is a manufacturers defect, that they should fix it for free. I think the meaning of the word "warranty" escapes you.
The warranty covers you against manufacturers defects for a given period of time. After that you are on your own. It's that simple. If you don't believe me, read it yourself.
The idea that a manufacturer should be responsible for a defect years after the warranty expired is absurd. I think that offering the repair for $195 is pretty generous. Most other manufacturers would just tell you to go pound sand.
" I would like to be a part of a class action. "
In order for there to be a class action, you'd have to show that the manufacturer is responsible. The warranty is pretty clear about who is responsible for repairs after it has expired. This is a non-starter.
" I am going to the news media to see if they can do any broadcasting on their news cast to convince new Mitsubishi customers about their loyalty and the defective product. "
That's funny. Do you really think the news media cares if a TV that is over 4 years old broke? Does that sound like news to you? I think a reality check is in order.

W-A-A-Y out of warranty.
What's this world coming to.
I would have eagerly accepted their generous offer.
TI (Texas Instruments) designed the chip, sue them and BTW, it's DLP not DLB.
You have NO cause whatsoever for a class action suit, no laws have been broken and as noted above, your warranty is LONG expired.
Accept their generous offer and get on with life....geez. If you don't you'll just prove you're a moron.
No, I DON'T work for Mitsubishi or TI.
Since you're also suspicious that your TV will now catch fire, stop using it.
What gave you the idea that this small DLP chip could cause your set to burst into flames and burn your house down with you in it.
