Most of them say the company can modify any part of it at will and there's nothing the customer can do about it.

If I ran the judiciary, the first decree I'd make is that all such "changeable at any time" terms are henceforth unenforceable as against public policy. The contract enforceable is the last one the customer actually signed, or the plain language reading of the prominent labeling if they never signed anything. (Which means "LIFETIME WARRANTY*!!! *lifetime means lifetime of the unit; when it stops working the warranty expires" would be enforced as a genuine lifetime warranty. SMC take note.)
