Can my landlord do this?!

We have had several issues with getting my landlord to make repairs in a timely manner.  Now, our dryer is working but fails to produce heat.  I’m guessing it’s the heating element or a fuse – something simple and cheap to fix.  However, she claims that her repair & maintenance budget is tapped out because [...]
