If you can supply the serial number you can probably find the age using http://www.needapplianceparts.com/applianceserialnumberbreakdown.aspx. That site also helps users to locate the serial number. Otherwise you may have to ask the manufacturer: instead of calling customer service use the corporate contact information at http://www.corporateofficeowl.com/maytag/Corporate%20Office.
