If your claim is denied or out of warranty
Common reasons HP denies a claim or treats it as out of warranty:
- Damage caused by accident, abuse, misuse, liquid spills, power surges, or other external causes.
- Unauthorized repairs or modifications.
- Normal wear and tear, including cosmetic damage that does not affect functionality.
- Expired warranty or inability to verify purchase date/warranty status.
Third-party protection plans (Asurion, Upsie, SquareTrade) or your credit card's purchase protection may still cover a repair or replacement — check those before paying out of pocket.
