    The product, in the report: SONY KDF-60XBR950 60” Projection LCD TV

    My TV has spotty pixelated images first of all. It also gets so HOT that it melted the door that covers bulb. The inside is charred when bulb is removed. It isn’t safe to have in a home when a potential fire can happen.

    It started a few years back thought it was wierd that door started to melt. then the picture stop coming up on screen it was the melted door that will not trigger switch the turns bulb on and off when not installed. started to smell plastic electrical smoke scents. Did a little research and this is a common problem that sony is aware of.
