Dig up that old invoice or receipt if you can since even your ten year old RAM might have a lifetime warranty on it.

    If they'll even honor it. No, there are no legal requirements for anything in the US any more.

    "Lifetime" warranties are for the lifetime of the product (however they define that), not for the lifetime of the owner. There are court cases where a "lifetime" of less than 5 years has been upheld.

    It's one of the most clever doublespeak things most consumers remain unaware of, so they keep doing it.
