Tenant wants a new stove/range

So, my tenant is complaining about the range in a rental unit. The complaints are:

1) Oven light does not work (oven does not have a light at all)

2) Oven is dirty (Shouldn't the tenant be responsible for keeping the oven clean? it's dirtier now then when she moved in)

3) Oven does not hold the proper temp (Seems to work for me)

4) Broiler is dirty (it is really dirty and is missing it's tray/pan. No idea if it ever had the tray or pan)

5) Broiler does not work (this is a basic model range, the broiler is more of a "hold warm" area. But the broiler does work)

This is a very basic range, and I'd buy a similar one if I replaced it. Buy a new range to keep tenant happy, or buy a new tray/pan for the broiler, or clean the damn thing for her, or tell her to live with it?
