Red/Purple Stripe Across Photos

Hello!
I bought Fujifilm finepix s2700 from a previous owner and have had it for about two years now. I've never really had any problems with it until recently. I will take some photos but several of them will have this odd stripe across it. I don't use the camera nor the sd card much so I am unsure if it is one or the other. I would love to know what is causing this so I am able to fix it, or at least somehow edit the stripe out of the images. Thank you!

Where do you see these stripes: on the camera or on your computer. Or both? If you see it on the camera then try a different SD card. If you see it only on your computer then the file may have been corrupted during transfer from the camera. Try a different transfer method such as USB cable.

As above it is file corruption, which may occur for several reasons. Usually it is a faulty SD card or a bad card reader cable. Sometimes it can be the computer hard drive or even the camera. Try changing the SD card and or the reader as a first step to finding the cause.
