I'm pretty sure it doesn't.
Can't see why it would if the plug is correctly fitted.
Isnt it simialr to a sticker falling off saying "warrenty void if
removed". All it means is the company refused to guarentee something
that could have been '****ed' with and then put back together so it's
not noticable.
You can see if a plug has been replaced.
I;'m not saying they are right to claim this it';s just what they say.
They say lots of things. Just whether they would stand up in law is a
different matter.
It;'s similar to lifetime guarantees where the con is that you have to
have a reciept why ? If a product is faulty it goers back to the
manufacter for replacement NOT the store, as where you brought it should
be irrelivant.
A warranty goes to the person who purchased it unless specifically
transferrable like with some cars. So proof you are the original purchaser
isn't unreasonable. And sadly lifetime doesn't always mean what you might
think it does.
