Who actually does the warranty repairs for the Amazon optional 3-year warranty? Is it Titanium or the company mentioned on Amazon (Asurion, LLC)?

Probably works like car insurance. They'll just "total" it and cut you a check.So you are left to fix your own problem of not having a working dish mover anyway.
That's how it worked for the bad dehumidifier I bought on Amazon. Had to cut off 12" of the plug-end of the power cord, peel off the model number/serial number sticker and send both to the warranty place. Got a full refund.

That's exactly how it works. Though, you are very unlikely to have anything happen to it, that can't be fairly easily repaired. Beyond a direct lightning strike that is, and depending, even that might be repairable. Lightning strikes are magic... You never know what it's going to do, or NOT do.
I have a 32" TV that was given to me after a lightning strike knocked it out. Turned out to be nothing more that the external 12 volt power supply. I offered to give back the repaired TV, but the family didn't want it. (BTW: Just ordered 4 more vbox relays.)
KE4EST: I don't own an ASC1. I have two krappy vboxes instead. I was just wondering about the Amazon warranty.
Where do you get the vbox relays? I have one that has sticky relays. I also have a ASC1 as well. Thanks
Actually the ones in the ASC1 are better and can be had cheap US Warehouse | 5Pcs SONGLE Mini 12V DC Power Relay SRD-12VDC-SL-C PCB Type
I bought these: 1pcs new SUPERJACK relay SK-PS-S12D DC12V | eBay
Now, after Magic Static's post, I ordered the relays he mentioned. Thanks Magic!
Does anyone make sockets for these relays???? That would sure make replacement easier!
No sockets, but there are easier ways of removing them. I have a desoldering station and can't figure out why it took me so long to get one.

Never been contacted to repair an Asurion warranty. Does that mean there have been no claims or they don't process repairs? Not sure...
I have purchased a few of these plans on Amazon, most recently to extend the 1 year manufacturer's warranty of a convection oven to 3 years - only cost me $2.99. Here is a link to the FAQ for the plans. Extended Warranty FAQs | Asurion
P.S. Never had to use one yet so....
Or even with a good manual solder sucker, you could have a relay out cleanly in under a minute!No sockets, but there are easier ways of removing them. I have a desoldering station and can't figure out why it took me so long to get one.
