Sears Canada won’t honour warranties after Oct. 18; liquidation to start Oct. 19

Monday, October 16, 2017

Sears Canada announced on Monday it won’t be able to honour Sears Protection Agreements (SPAs) on its products after October 18.

Liquidation sales at its remaining 131 stores are set to start October 19, the company also said.

Most customers will still be able to count on a one-year manufacturer’s warranty, the retailer noted in a press release. Those who purchased an SPA in the past 30 days will also be able to get refunds.

It’s unclear what repair services Sears customers will be able to rely on. The company said it is looking for a purchaser for its Sears Canada Product Repair Services (PRS) business but added that “the terms upon which an acquirer of that business would provide services … are not known at this time.”
