What sort of running around might I expect, and what sort of pushback channels are available? Both myself and MrsITAG are SE.
Almost all unscheduled maintenance is related to safety, so I would expect your claim to be denied.

Edited to add: he has found an email in junk folder with an explanation early on in the delay:
Create a claim for APPR. Almost all loading/unloading claims are eligible, with some exceptions.
