Parts and Labor
There will be no charge for parts or labor during the warranty period. Replacement parts and units may be new or recertified
at VIZIO’s option and sole discretion. Replacement parts and units are warranted for the remaining portion of the original
warranty or for ninety (90) days from warranty service or replacement, whichever is later.
Types of Service
Units 30” or larger will usually be serviced in-home. In-home service requires complete and easy access to the unit and does
not include de-installation or re-installation of the product. However, in some cases, it may be necessary to send the unit to a
VIZIO service center. VIZIO will cover the transportation charges to and from the same customer location.
Units less than 30” must be sent to a VIZIO service center. VIZIO is not responsible for transportation costs to the service
center, but VIZIO will cover return shipping to the customer. PRE-AUTHORIZATION IS REQUIRED BEFORE SENDING
ANY UNIT IN FOR SERVICE.
Any returns to VIZIO’s service centers must utilize either the original carton box and shipping material or a replacement box
and material provided by VIZIO. VIZIO technical support will provide instructions for packing and shipping the unit to the
VIZIO service center.
