E-WasteCan your item be repaired? If parts are required, are they available to a servicer? In some states, the answer may be "no."

Does your state have a law governing the availability of parts? Here are the states with such laws:

 

California:
7 years after date of manufacture for goods with a wholesale value of $100 or more, 3 years for items valued at $50 to $99.99.  This law covers functional parts only.

Connecticut:
4 years after the date of final sale.

Indiana:
7 years after the date of final sale.

Rhode Island:
4 years after final sale.

New Hampshire:
For goods valued at over $100, parts and service info for the period of time covered by the warranty.
