As previously mentioned, Zippo doesn't make the Z-Plus, so you'd have to take that one up with whomever makes it.
Adam, I started collecting zippo's back in the late 70's while in the Navy and the only time I ever sent one back for repairs was because the hing loosened up and they have always repaired it. One of the things I've always liked about zippo windproofs was their warranty.

Zippo Windproof Pocket Lighter
Any Zippo pocket lighter, when returned to our factory, will be put in first-class mechanical condition free of charge, for we have yet to charge a cent for the repair of a Zippo pocket lighter, regardless of age or condition. The finish, however, is not guaranteed.
