Returned for Repair is a process in which a product is sent back to the manufacturer from a customer or retailer due to a defect or malfunction in the product. It could be due to a manufacturing defect, component failure, or other issue. The product is then evaluated and repaired, and then returned to the customer or retailer. There are two types of Returned for Repair: In-warranty repair and Out-of-warranty repair. In-warranty repair is when the product is still under warranty and the manufacturer covers the cost of repairs. Out-of-warranty repair is when the product is no longer under warranty and the customer pays for the repairs. In both cases, the returned product is inspected, tested, and repaired by the manufacturer. The manufacturer also checks for any additional defects, and if necessary, replaces defective parts. After repair, the product is tested to make sure it meets the manufacturer's standards. Once the product is repaired, it is shipped back to the customer or retailer.
