A written warranty is a promise made in writing by a seller or manufacturer to a buyer that a product is free from defects or will be repaired or replaced if it fails to meet certain specifications. It is a type of contract that guarantees the quality and performance of a product.
For example, when you buy a new car, the manufacturer may provide a written warranty that covers repairs or replacements for a certain period of time. If the car breaks down during that time, the manufacturer will fix it for free.
Another example is when you purchase a new appliance, such as a refrigerator or washing machine. The seller may provide a written warranty that guarantees the appliance will work properly for a certain period of time. If it doesn't, the seller will repair or replace it for free.
These examples illustrate how a written warranty provides assurance to the buyer that the product they are purchasing is of good quality and will perform as expected. It also gives the buyer recourse if the product fails to meet their expectations.
