Take your local Wal-Mart to small claims court for not honoring the
warranty. They will probably settle with you. They don't want the publicity
that this would gather especially if you threatened to involve the media.

I bought a computer there which never worked right since I got it. When
I
tried
to return it for exchange, Wal-Mart refused to do so and said that all
computer
products including hardwware and the ecomputers theirselves must be
returned
within 14 days, and since it was more than 14 days, thy couldn't accept
it
as a
return and told me I had to call the manufacturer and then wal-mart gave
me a
false phone number to the manufacturer of the computer.
After several calls to telephone directory assistance, I finally found
the
real
phone number to the manufacturer of the computer. and guess what?
The manufacturer told me to take it back to Wal-Mart since it still
wasn't
a
year old and Wal-Mart had signed a contract with the computer
manufacturer
to
take that manufacturers computers back for a whole year from date of
purchase
if they're defective.
I told him I tried to do so and Wal_Mart refused to do so and said it
had
to be
within 14 days.
Then he re-iterated that Wal-Mart had signed a contract with the
manufacturer
to take it back within a year.
Since Wal-Mart efused to take it back, I had to send it back to the
manufacturer for repairs ( and it's still not fixed correctly, yet),
but the bottom line here is that Wal-Mart has violated their contrat
with
Compaq computers and gotten away with it.
