Effective January 1, 2006: ALL Appliance Manufacturers will be changing their warranties to "One year parts and labor." The new warranty will also be moved from a "FULL Coverage" to "Limited Coverage".

According to Home Furnishing News's article "Limited Service" on November 7'th , 2005, "Recent research has shown that consumers do not value extended component warranties and often don't even know they have extra coverage." Therefore All Appliance Manufacturers will be cutting these FREE extended warranties, therefore raising your out of pocket costs.
