Areas of Concern
A standard warranty is going to have certain provisions that must be followed in order to get this contract honored. The warranty may specify that only certain repair shops will accept the warranty. There also might be a definite amount of time and after that the warranty is no longer in effect. Still other warranties insist that only certain parts are permissible, and the warranty owner may have to pay for the purchase of such parts.
A service contract is not a warranty. In fact, a service contract may not be necessary at all because products rarely break down in the time the service contract covers. An individual is paying for something that will probably not be used. Unfortunately, there are situations where a retailer will refuse to honor the warranty. That leads to a whole new set of problems and considerable anger and frustration. Good group legal plans will offer warranty assistance as a benefit option. Countrywide Pre-Paid Legal Services provides help with warranties as a pre-paid legal services benefit.
