I bought mine in November.

I'm sorry to say that mine has worked perfectly!  I even spin records,
part time, and have taken it on 3 jobs since getting it.  NOT ONE PROBLEM.

Three months doesn't seem to good, but I have heard of longer periods.
Did you call them on the phone to find out what is happening?

Call them first, like I mentioned above.  Sueing probably won't do any
good if you didn't try to work it out first.  For legal reasons, phone
calls don't count, unless you record them and have them giving permission,
on the phone, recorded on tape, that the recording is ok.
