If your claim is denied or out of warranty
Common reasons Vizio denies a claim or treats it as out of warranty:
- Physical damage, accidental damage, or damage caused by misuse or improper installation.
- Normal wear and tear, or cosmetic damage not affecting functionality.
- Unauthorized repairs or modifications to the product.
- Lack of valid proof of purchase or an expired warranty period.
Third-party protection plans (Asurion, Upsie, SquareTrade) or your credit card's purchase protection may still cover a repair or replacement — check those before paying out of pocket.
