RetiredGuy123 nailed it. I've had neighbors who have had three separate "repairs" all for $350-$400 within a few months of each other instead of just fixing the problem once (different "issues" so not the same deductible). They make their money on lower skilled repairmen, multiple repairs, and when a need to replace it is with a lower quality appliance that you can "upgrade" (ie: they make more $$$).
