Can a Lanlord Charge Us for a New Stove for Cosmetic Wear and Tear

I leased a house in San Dimas for 1 year. Once we were moved out I hired professional cleaners to clean the house. The landlord did a walk through after and noticed there were scratches on the stove where the clock is and is stainless steel. This is a black on stainless steel stove gas stove. The landlord now wants to charge us to replace the part but prefers to buy a new stove.
I don’t think it really needs to be replaced as there is no damage to the stove and is in great working condition. I believe it is wear and tear caused cosmetically.
There are also some discoloring from the grease that is not coming off and also wants to charge us for the time she has spent trying to clean it herself and for the time she has spent on the phone trying to find the part that she claims to be 7 hrs. I believe it took this long because it is a cosmetic part.

She wants to hold $1000.00 of our security for the parts/labor/ or a new stove and additionally $50 for her time.
She does not have an estimate of the charges.
