+Primevci Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 Well picked up a 64s last night from REI and got home plugged her in and bamp big old stuck/dead pixel on the middle of the screen i mean come on it 2014! and a small screen to boot.. oh well time to play exchange game.. Quote
+BikeBill Posted July 26, 2014 Posted July 26, 2014 That does stink and doesn't say much for their quality control (unless it was working when they tested it). Did you try rubbing your finger hard across the pixel? Sometimes they'll turn back on with a little mechanical prodding. FWIW, I've had maybe a half dozen Garmins (for caching and for the car) and never saw a bad pixel. Bill Quote
alandb Posted July 26, 2014 Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) My 4 year old Nuvi 855 has a stuck pixel (always on). It usually does respond (turn off) using the hard rub method described by BikeBill, but will often be stuck on again the next time I power up. I should have returned it when it was new, but I guess it didn't bother me enough to go through the hassle. Edited July 26, 2014 by alandb Quote
PghDragonRider Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Exchanged new one is perfect I love REI's exchange policy for members: If you're not happy bring it back. Never had a problem with REI. Quote
