It seems that this is an Amazon related incident but the issues do seem to be every growing as the day passes... Maybe it was only the launch editions? Not sure whats happening but if the issues continue to grow after a week... there is clearly a major flaw in Sony's part... If they don't fix it quickly, there will be lawsuits and people will stop buying the system...

But here is a list of pretty much all legit CRITICAL issues that have happened on the ps4 so far:

We should also keep a track of the reviews from Amazon:

The good and the bad reviews seem to go up

Right now, its about 34% (448 failed out of 1290 sold) failure rate (if the reviews are true) which is better than the 40% it was this morning... 

To be clear, that would be 34% _OF THE 1290 REVIEWS_ posted to Amazon, not 34% of all PS4's sold by Amazon. I would guess the 'sold' number is in the tens of thousands range, so that actual failure rate of the hardware is likely orders of magnitude lower than 34%

 

Yea... If I wanted to say "of all the ps4 that was sold by Amazon" I would state something like: Total Sales or 40% of ALL ps4's sold by amazon... Interesting how people misinterpreted what I said to that degree... I didn't think I had to state the obvious :/

Not to nit-pick, but you DID actually state "448 failed out of 1290 *sold*" It's right there in yout original post.  I don't think I misinterpreted that (??)
