Vertical Lines On Left Side Of Screen

I purchased a Sony bravia KDL 46EX600 approximately 24 months ago and recently I had vertical lines appear on the left side of the screen that are multiplying - is this a common issue with these TV's?  Also, what's the cause of this and is there a fix?

this sounds like the panel is going bad, too bad you didn't buy an extended warranty. you should contact Sony and take photos of the problem to see what they will do to help: http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/model-home.pl?mdl=KDL46EX600&LOC=3#/howtoTab
