Guarantee/warranty Mon Apr 25, 2005 11:10 am  Guarantee/warranty
 

Guarantee is the more general of the two words in meaning. It has the sense of assurance both as a noun and a verb.
Warranty is the actual written document that supports the assurance that something will be repaired or replaced without additional cost to the buyer.
