Do Craftsman garage door openers have a lifetime warranty?

Craftsman garage door openers historically offered lifetime motor warranty and limited warranty on parts, but warranty terms varied by model and time, and current warranty support is limited due to Sears bankruptcy and brand transition. Older Craftsman openers sold at Sears often advertised lifetime motor warranty and 1 year parts warranty, with some premium models offering lifetime motor and 5 year parts, similar to Chamberlain and LiftMaster which offer lifetime motor warranty on belt drive and 4 year motor on chain drive. However, Craftsman brand garage door openers are no longer manufactured as Sears sold Craftsman brand to Stanley Black and Decker in 2017 and garage door opener production stopped, so new warranty claims may be difficult, as Sears warranty support is limited after bankruptcy in 2018. Chamberlain Group still provides parts for Craftsman openers as they are same as Chamberlain, but warranty may be honored by Chamberlain Group rather than Sears. Newer Craftsman openers sold at Lowes had 1 year limited warranty. So while Craftsman openers may have had lifetime motor warranty on paper, actual warranty coverage today is uncertain, and you should check warranty document for your specific model number like 139.53985. For new purchase, Chamberlain and LiftMaster offer clearer lifetime motor warranty with active support, making them better for warranty than old Craftsman.
