Our water system failed in the sense that the tiny tubes that carry the water through the filtration system became clogged over time (mineral deposits, supposedly) and we were told it would be at least $600-$700 for the repair, because it basically required replacing the whole filtration system and was very labor-intensive.
Instead we solved the problem by having the guy bypass the filtration system entirely, so now the water just comes through the door straight out of the pipe, same as tapwater. So like you said, it wasn't a big deal because we can do water and ice in other acceptable ways, but it definitely would have cost more than $200 to fix. However, I also don't think this would have been covered by a warranty even if it happened within the first few years, which it didn't.
