If your claim is denied or out of warranty

Common reasons Milwaukee Tool denies a claim or treats it as out of warranty:

Damage caused by abuse, accident, alteration, misuse, neglect, or lack of maintenance.
Repairs made or attempted by anyone other than authorized Milwaukee service personnel.
Normal wear and tear parts (e.g., brushes, cords, chucks, O-rings, seals).
Use of the tool for commercial purposes if the warranty is for consumer use only.

Power-tool warranties are long and run through the maker's own service centers, so third-party plans are rarely worth it — contact the manufacturer first, then a local repair shop.
