Circuit city warranty and laptop
Circuit city warranty
When I bought my extended warranty, they said everything except the battery was cover. Now there is a crack in the laptop case which is spreading and there help line says that it is cosmetic and not cover. Is this normal? Can I do anything about his? |

Any physical damage is usually considered abuse, no surprise it won't be covered.

It depends on the model. While it may not be covered by Circuit City's
extended warranty, Compaq may still replace the plastics, assuming it was a bad batch of plastics (even if out of original warranty), and not due to abuse. If enough of them failed, it's possible that Compaq will replace the plastics. Now, the model and serial number of the unit would help, though... Think back to LTE386 notebook days at Compaq......

true, but it would have to be a known problem with allot of complaints, they won't just do it for one out of the goodness of their
hearts. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------- "Mike Calkins" wrote in message m... It depends on the model.
