Sometimes a salesperson will make an oral promise, for example, that the seller will provide free repairs. However, if this claim is not in writing, you may not be able to get the promised service. Have the salesperson put the promise in writing, or do not count on the service. When you buy a car, home, or major appliance you may be offered a service contract. Warranties are included in the price of the product.
Service contracts come separately from the product, at an extra cost.
Although warranties are not required by law, there is another type of warranty that is. Implied warranties are created by state law, and all states have them. Almost every purchase you make is covered by an implied warranty. This means that the seller promises the product will do what it is supposed to do. For example, a car will run, a toaster will toast.
