However, most forum members have said that Sony had replaced their unit without any problems. But if your console is beyond the warranty date, you may have to pay 150$.

Although the error rate isn’t high enough as that of the RROD, staff at Sony have themselves experienced a similar error. Still Sony boys have made a good enough console and they are very good at fixing stuffs. :)
