That may be true when it comes to cars. However I speak from
experience when I say that warranty work in consumer electronics
and appliances much of the time is a joke. In most cases the company
will only pay you a fixed amount regardless of the time spent. So
you might make out ok if your looking at a simple repair. If thats not
the case then you can start loosing money real quick depending on
what you run into. In general the process of running a warranty through
the system from start to finish is kind of a PITA within itself. Its necessary
though if you plan to work on units for a new dealer. Just have to take
the good with the bad.
