Master Protection Agreements
Congratulations on making a smart purchase.
Your new
Kenmore
®
product is designed and manufactured for
years of dependable operation. But like all products, it
may require preventive maintenance or repair from time
to time. That’s when having a Master Protection
Agreement can save you money and aggravation.
The Master Protection Agreement also helps extend the
life of your new product. Here’s what the
Agreement* includes:
•
Parts and labor
needed to help keep products operating
properly
under normal use,
not just defects. Our coverage
goes
well beyond the product warranty.
No deductible, no
functional failure excluded from coverage –
real protection.
•
Expert service
by a force of more than 10,000 authorized
Sears service technicians,
which means someone you can
trust will be working on your product.
•
Unlimited service calls and nationwide service,
as often as
you want us, whenever you want us.
• “No-lemon” guarantee
– replacement of your covered
product if four or more product failures occur within twelve
months.
• Product replacement
if your covered product can not
be fixed.
•
Annual Preventive Maintenance Check
at your request – no
extra charge.
•
Fast help by phone –
we call it
Rapid Resolution.
Phone
support from a Sears representative on all products. Think of us
as a “talking owner’s manual.”
•
Power surge protection
against electric damage due to
power fluctuations.
•
$250 food loss protection annually
for any food spoilage
that is the result of mechanical failure of any covered
refrigerator or freezer.
•
Rental reimbursement
if repair of your covered product
takes longer than promised.
•
10% discount
off the regular price of any non-covered repair
service and related installed parts.
Once you purchase the Agreement, a simple phone
call is all that it takes for you to schedule service. You
can call at any time day or night or schedule a service
appointment online.
The Master Protection Agreement is a risk-free purchase.
If you cancel for any reason during the product
warranty period, we will provide a full refund, or a
prorated refund any time after the product warranty
period expires. Purchase your Master Protection
Agreement today!
