If you have a lens with a passport and that lens is run over by a tank, Leica will replace the lens FOC - in fact I think it might be the case that provided you can send them the piece of the lens that shows the serial number they will give you a replacement.

Actually, I much prefer equipment that never requires service and has no warranty to equipment that has a great warranty but requires service. I buy Leica because I expect it never to require service; if it _does_ require service, then I've wasted my money, no matter how great the warranty. It _is_ possible to design and build gear that wears out but never breaks in normal use, and for Leica prices, that's exactly what I expect, nothing less.
