Anyone had issues with TV sliding off the horizontal bar when moving the TV? Anyone have a fix to prevent(rubber instead of plastic bracket inserts)?

I am having the same issue. I snapped in the two small locker arms and inserted the two screws with nuts. My 60" Vizio TV will can slide left or right on the horizontal bars. I am thinking about putting a couple of black cable ties on each side to prevent the movement.

We actually don't move our tv, so my answer would be no we haven't had to replace anything.

I didn't have these issues, but then I have never moved it once it was installed.

If I remember correctly the bolts tightened the bracket to the bar so there was no room for sliding...we have never tilted the tv to the side though so it's never been a problem.

I have the TV facing at over 90 degrees from the wall it is mounted on. [Odd situation, but just sayin'] There are also adjustments to compensate for not mounting it perfectly "square" on the wall.

No issues with mine.....have a TV, & DVD Player and knick knacks on it and have moved it many times to vacuum, etc. All good, loved it's!

I just received delivery of this same Sony last Friday and have noticed the same thing. I have not done anything about correcting it because the delivery man who helped me secure the TV to the pedestal stand didn't think there was anything wrong. This isn't much help, but it's all I know for now.

Yes. I can think of a reason. It's poor construction! I had that same TV fall to the floor due to the plastic piece that attaches to the tv a d holds the cable. I would stay away!!!

No as there is a lip on the mount where the rods hold onto, tv will slip by turning it vertical. Try turning the rods 180 or use longer screws, they will be at an angle but with an additional washer you should be able to keep the tv steady

Nope, the tv does not move on the mount. I suppose it could move side-to-side, but it should really stay centered anyway.

Common issue I guess... It will sink on the left side as you face the TV screen, or in other words, it will rotate slightly counterclockwise. After I move the TV (55" Sony) I simply grab the TV edges and rotate it clockwise and it stays in place.

Dolores, I too had to really tilt my tv as well and it has not fallen off or even moved. I just made sure it was in a strong stud in the wall and the TV itself was tightly secured to the bracket holder. Maybe add a small unnoticeable strap to tv itself to have piece of mind. Hope this helps you!

The tv can move horizontally as far as the arms can reach. Mount itself can move it has a line of bolt holes along top and bottom of the bracket that the arms are connected too. But you would either have to take tv off or have people hold it up. Not something you would want to do often.

It's stationary and ours was not level, we didnt want to break the welds, so we ended up having to tilt the stand (~4" from the wall on one side and ~6" from the wall on the other)theres a way to give a slight adjustment by making the screws that hold the TV mount to the stand tighter or looser - but you can only go so loose/tight so it may give you like an inch of swivel.

Pretty sure there is something rubber to keep it from slipping. It should not scratch furniture. It is pretty stable when turning our TV.

Thanks very much for the info. I lucked out, since my equipment is to the right of the TV and I can't move it to the other side.

When tv is mounted to the bracket you grab the tv and gently move it to tilt. There is a tension nut on mount you may have to adjust depending on if it is too tight or too loose. The mount works great. I have it in the bedroom of my fifthwheel I remove the tv when traveling. Hope this helps.

the two bars that attach to the TV, have a screw on each, that when tightened, keep TV secure on the mount. But if you keep these screws loose, you can easily mount and unmount the TV. the TV will still be secure unless some one "accidentally" manages to pull the TV from the bottom towards them and lift the tv off the mount and throw it a cross the room.

Trash the TV. Other options include drilling the screw holes a little larger to accommodate the old screws. You could also glue it, as you will probably not replace it again.

I have not and it would take some time and a lot of effort to remove. Not to say it could not be done but I feel safe leaving my tv hang in the fridgid northeast year round and so far it has held up with the original tv. Hope that helps
