I have a 2002 GT with about 1.5years left on my bumper to bumper warrenty. I was wondering if anyone knew if i would void the warrenty by adding an aftermarket alarm/remote start system? The only reason being because you have to alter some of the factory wiring. I would do the install myself.... any responces appreciated. Thanks

 

as long as you don't fry the electrical system installing it you should be fine.

 

If I were you I would call the dealer. If you hack into the electrical system to install these things who knows what they might do. Always call and check and then go from there.

 

It shouldnt the only way you would void the warranty would be if you did a mod an then had a problem and the mod was the cause of the problem. When I had my car under warranty I got new exhaust, cai, new optima battery, new system, alarm, and a bunch of other mods and it didnt void the warranty just make sure that you get PROFFESSIONAL INSTALLATION on the alarm and stereo unless you have experience and know what your doing, other than that I did the exhaust, drop, cai, etc by myself and never voided the warranty....

 

You will be fine just dont hook it up wrong and **** up your computer or elect. system, hey you can also save on your car insurance if you have an alarm and most of all The piece of mind that you knw your baby is safe

 

thanks for the quick replies everyone. I think i'm just going to go ahead and put it in myself, i'm good with electrical work so i think it will be fine..... not to mention a hell of a lot cheaper than having it installed. Thanks again...

 

good luck man thats a $hit load or wiring and I hope you know how to solder (its the best way to do it)

 

you can do alot of damage to a car with an alarm. Security was something that I slowly eased into and after 10+ yrs doing it, it will still give me headachs from time to time...

 

I added the remote start while I still had my warranty and they didnt say anything about it, to this day i still have life time oil and filter and they havent said anything so you should be fine...
