Summary

This accessible guide helps readers successfully interpret warranty data to make accurate predictions. It discusses practical issues associated with the modeling and analysis of warranty data and includes a number of useful strategies to reduce costs of warranties. The authors offer a step-by-step approach with flowcharts to extract meaningful information from the warranty data, demonstrating each approach with detailed application examples.
