Can I have the cost of a covered repair applied toward a brand-new appliance?
Yes. If a covered part breaks down and can be repaired, but you prefer to get a new one instead, you can apply the cost of the repair toward the price of the new unit. For example, your refrigerator breaks down. It can be repaired for $1000, but you would like a new refrigerator instead. You can opt to apply the $1000 repair cost toward the price of the new unit.
