3303 calibre questions (AGAIN I HEAR YOU CRY...)

Hi everybody, I recently purchased a Speedmaster Broad Arrow with the 3303 movement. This is displaying the early symptoms of failure - minute totaliser not working - second totaliser not resetting etc. I bought this thing for a very good price due to these issues. Looking back over past threads, I can see that Omega made an effort to fix these problems without doing a recall. So to my question - my recent purchase is out of warranty (it's almost 3.5 years old) what is Omegas stance on fixing the problems for a watch that is out of warranty? There is obviously a fault in the design - are they obliged to repair it?
Any thoughts, insights or general ramblings would be appreciated.
