Default modifications and warrantee

I'm thinking that modifying the suspension and other add-ons will nuke the warranty? I hope that the areas you don't mess with are still under warrantee if you dinker with other parts of the car?

Default RE: modifications and warrantee

Long and the short of it. Anything you replace is no longer warrentied. If a part that you replace can DIRECTLY be said to be the cause of a failure or problem, it won't be warrentied. Also, the burdon (sp?) of proof is on the dealer to prove the part caused the failure, you do not have to prove that it didn't. Otherwise, your warrenty is fine. For more info, look up the Magnuson-Ferguson Act.

also, if worried about the warranty, dont hang around here, you will be voiding the warranty left and right.....
