It is upsetting that you have experienced these problems. The engine mfg handles the warranty for any engine related failure ( in this case the carburetor ). If the cable broke due to a manufacturers defect and it had not been kinked or chewed on then I would think yes it should have been replaced by warranty. I would approach Sears and ask them to reconsider this decision not to warrant.
There are many things that can go wrong in the carburetor and it is typically contamination which is not warrantable but again that has to be decided by the service center.
You may also want to ask them to look at the transmission again as our transmissions in these walking mowers typically last for many many many years.
