February 27, [redacted] Revdex.com North Wabash Ave., Ste#Chicago, IL Re: # [redacted] – Martin JP [redacted] Dear Ms [redacted] We have completed the investigation of MrP [redacted] complaint regarding his dissatisfaction with the failure of his refrigerator and a back order on the part needed to complete a repair It is Sears' goal to provide quality merchandise and services, and we are always concerned when something does not meet our customers' expectations The reality exists that no matter how high the quality of the items we sell, the potential for failure exists for any product Manufacturers understand how frustrating this can be to a consumer and typically cover the cost of any repairs that become necessary within the first year However, they offer replacement only in the instance that an item cannot be repaired and do not offer any options while waiting for a repair It is for this reason that Sears, and most other retailers, offer some sort of extended warranty coverage Although MrP [redacted] did not purchase a Sears Protection Agreement, it appears that the manufacturer does offer coverage for a few specific repairs beyond the first year of ownership With this having been said, our records indicate that Executive Member Services Representative Nancy R [redacted] contacted MrP [redacted] upon our receipt of this complaint and is currently working toward a resolution MrP [redacted] is welcome to contact MsR [redacted] at [redacted] **, at any time during this process We regret any inconvenience MrP [redacted] may have experienced and can assure him that we are committed to providing a fair and equitable resolution We appreciate the opportunity to address this matter Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions or concerns Sincerely, Nicki G [redacted] Regulatory Complaint Specialist [redacted] ***
