I called Icon customer service on 9/30/11 and was told that it sounded like the control panel was defective, but since the warranty was for only 90 days, they would SELL me a replacement panel for $150.
I then wrote to Walmart and to the manufacturer Icon Health & Fitness. Walmart never responded. Icon offered to sell me the replacement panel for 1/2 price. I refused their offer. Given the size and the weight of this unit, it's not something I can just bring back to the store! I would like them to replace the unit or refund my son's credit card.
THIS TREADMILL COST $400 AND ONLY LASTED 9 MILES!!!!! DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM WALMART OR ICON BECAUSE THEY DO NOT BACK WHAT THEY SELL!!!!

People, I don't know how many times I have to say that you should test high-end items right after you buy them. It literally takes just a few seconds and can save you some serious headaches. As for Walmart, I don't know why you're blaming them. You went past the return period and they certainly don't have little bits and pieces to items in the back room to give you. In other words, they just sell items, they don't maintenance them.
I'm sorry that you got a bad piece of equipment, but I guess you'll do things differently in the future now.
