Think back to a personal experience where you encountered a product warranty. This could be anything from a phone to a car to an appliance. Consider the following:
Describe your experience: Briefly share the situation and the product involved. Did the warranty play a role in resolving the issue?
Warranty type (based on textbook): Refer to the reading material and identify what type of warranty applied to your experience (e.g., full warranty, limited warranty, extended warranty). Explain your reasoning.
Ethical considerations: Beyond your experience, ponder potential ethical issues surrounding warranties. Consider aspects like:
Transparency and clarity: Are warranty terms always clear and easy to understand for consumers?
Fairness and exclusions: Do warranties exclude certain issues that seem reasonable to expect coverage?
Environmental impact: How do warranties influence product lifespan and potential waste generation?
