GE - General Electric FXWTC Questions and Answers


#1 What is the warranty for parts and accessories?

All parts and accessories have a limited one-year warranty, with the exception of water filters, which have a 30-day warranty. If your part fails because of a manufacturing defect within one year from the date of original purchase, we will provide a new or, at our option, rebuilt part without charge. Return the defective part to the vendor from whom it was purchased with a copy of the "proof of purchase." If the part is defective it will be exchanged.
This warranty does not cover parts which are improperly installed, damaged, abused or used for other than the intended purpose. It does not include cost of returning the part to the vendor from which it was purchased, labor to remove, install or diagnose the failure, parts used in commercial applications, incidental or consequential damage caused by possible defects with the parts.
EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES - Your sole and exclusive remedy is part exchange as provided in this Limited Warranty. Any implied warranties, including the implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, are limited to one year or the shortest period allowed by law.

#2 How do I return a part or accessory and get a replacement?

Returning a Part
- If you ordered a part online that you would like to return, please start by requesting a Return Materials Authorization (RMA). Once you complete and submit the return form, you will receive a confirmation email within approximately 20 minutes. Print the shipping label included in the email and attach to the outside of your package. The label contains the RMA number and correct warehouse address for your return. To receive credit for returned part and accessories, all items must be in sellable condition. Please allow one billing cycle for your refund to be processed.
Parts and accessories
- May be returned for credit within 30 days from the date the part or accessory was shipped to you from our warehouse. The part or accessory may be returned for a $15 re-stocking fee between 31 and 90 days from shipment. After 90 days the part or accessory may not be returned.
Return Shipping
- We do not cover the cost of return shipping, but if the reason for the return is determined to be our error, we will refund the shipping cost of your original order.
Need to Exchange?
- If you're looking to exchange a part or accessory you purchased, complete the returns process for the current item and place a new order for the item you need.

#3 I already have a RMA number - how do I complete my return?

A RMA number is required for a return and must be visible on the return package or the return will not be processed. Our parts are shipped from several warehouses. When returning a part, the return package should be addressed to the warehouse that originally shipped the part. You should have received an email that includes your RMA number as well as the correct return address and a printable return label.
