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
fi xed.
• 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 fl uctuations.
• $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.
• 25% 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!
