Does Your Company Offer Discounts Or Refunds For Kdl32xbr4 Because Of The Common

does your company offer refunds or discounts for your faulty t-con board that is unavailable except for buying with display? the fact that i repair many tvs and see this problem with this tv brings me to think maybe you have a class action suite that would offer a refund to kdl-32xbr4 owners or a new board for a reasonable price. please email me as to what you have attempted to do to HELP owners of this tv with the vertical lines from a inherintly BAD t-con board.
