SureFire and Malkoff have very good warranties.
Another vote for Surefire.
Not only US, their warranty covers the globe, mostly with no question asked and they just send you the replacement parts for minor issue like tailcaps
But people had also experienced a brute treatment to their light from Surefire, a guy who reviewed M3LT said he sent his M3LT back to Surefire as theres oil inside the lens, and when the light comes back, the engraving faded and becomes blur
Malkoff, no comment since i never tried the warranty

Surfire,Streamlight for sure and would have to say RayOVac also as their batteries ruined a good light of mine and they sent me a check to replace it very quickly.

Streamlight.
You can read the warranty at their website.

Streamlight will give you the most convenience with their Authorized Service Centers. Maglite also has a couple service centers, but not as many (and don't service LED models).
Other than that, Pelican and SureFire are pretty much on-par with them if returning the light is required.

I just had some issues with two of my Surefire lights. I sent them an email and I had a reply with RMA the same day. I just mailed them back today so I don't know what the outcome will be, but I am impressed so far.
Heliotek. I sent them one email, and they sent me a replacement light free of charge. Didn't even have to send the old light back.
Now that's service.
Since the OP only mentioned US based warranty coverage, I'll add Pila USA and Polarion USA to the mix.

The Photon folks take care of their customers, too.

I got my Surefire 6P in 1994 and carried it for work for years which resulted in the lens getting pretty scratched up. About 2 years ago I contacted Surefire to inquire about a replacement lens. They took my address and sent me a new bezel at no cost. Excellent customer service.

I know that this may not be a popular one, but I have had good luck with maglite warranty repair. The company I have had the best results with Streamlight. They even repaired switches on two 10 year old Propolymer 4aa led lights, even though the warranty says two years on switches.
