Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20171229-D3FE7-2147394199. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Vizio E420i-B0. Incident: I purchased a Vizio E420i-B0 television on Amazon.com on April 27, 2014. While moving the TV to adjust connections in the back, I noticed the TV seemed tippy on its stand. Subsequently, the TV broke off its stand and tumbled onto the floor when I closed a door on the wall unit it was located on, breaking the top and right side screen frame. I now see that there is a recall issued on this TV stand. I've contacted Vizio to see how they will rectify the damage.
