My Experience: just after warranty expired, blue dots began appearing... they worsened .. and just as I was researching to see what the blue dots are, I learned of the class action lawsuit. I called hitachi.. they will do nothing, and in fact, told me they fully expect to win the class action lawsuit. ... and now the lamp has blown, according to troubleshooting, and the fan also. But in how much a light engine costs, I don't think I will even fix the lamp and fan.. why bother? I will still have the blue dots and hue. I can get a new one for close to what I'd spend to fix this one.
