Burnt Screen-falls Under Man. Warranty??

About 4 months ago I purchased the Samsung U740. I keep excellent care of my phones, weeks later I started to notice marks on the screen. Not the LCD screen, but the first layer of plastic. Where you put your face against when you talk. The marks/blemishes were spaced evenly both horizontally and vertically. I matched the marks up to the keys on the key pad.

Now, if any one is familiar with the u740. There are 42 buttons on the key pad. Can you guess how many marks are now on my screen?? Yep...42

IM TICKED!!! I asked myself, how did they get there? One night after not being able to sleep, there was a bright light coming from my cell phone screen. (it was in the closed position) Thats when I noticed, when my phone is plugged in and charging. The screen and keypad stay lite. I opened it up to the find the keys extremely hot and the screen also.

HAS THIS HAPPEN TO ANYONE? WILL VERIZON REPLACE THE PHONE, BECASUE IT IS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT.

go to your local store and show them the damage. Some of the first Motorola RAZR's did this and they were warrantied by the carrier or the manufacturer.
