Fridge failure a week before closing

tl;dr: new fridge is dead the week of closing. How to address as buyer without delaying things?

Hey everyone! We’re under contract to purchase a home (closing is at the end of this week) and the sellers called our agent to let them know that the fridge is dead. It was upgraded this summer (mid-high end, probably 4k new) and is under warranty. But, given the holidays, there is no chance of getting someone to look at it for a few weeks at the earliest.

The sellers seem pretty reasonable (family moving unexpectedly for work after ~10 years in the home) and the house has a small basement fridge we can use temporarily while getting this one repaired or replaced. We have both an agent and real estate attorney, but what would folks here ask for in order to make sure there we don’t get stuck with the repair or replacement costs? Thanks!

I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
