## Abstract We examine two key stochastic processes of interest for warranty modeling: (1) remaining total warranty coverage time exposure and (2) warranty load (total items under warranty at time __t__). Integral equations suitable for numerical computation are developed to yield probability law f

Most consumer durable products are used intermittently and the usage is best modelled as a point process in time. Also, the failure of an item is a function of the number of times the item has been used rather than its age. As a result, the item failure is better characterized through a discrete dis
Reliability is an important aspect of product perception and manufacturers are compelled to take corrective actions on the items failing within the warranty period. Automotive manufacturers are being exposed to significant operating costs as a result of warranty claims affecting an individual unit o
For second-hand products sold with warranty, the expected warranty cost for an item to the manufacturer, depends on (i) the age and/or usage as well as the maintenance history for the item and (ii) the terms of the warranty policy. The paper develops probabilistic models to compute the expected warr
