The other night i went to the track and I saw the guy that works on my car. So i am just wondering if my warranty is voided now.. Please Help me out thanks

 

Depends on what he was doing there, if he was racing just like you he probably wont care. Did he recognize you? Its always recommended to take off your plates and hide your vin when you're at the track.
Gm doesn't send mechanics to spy on people at the track, they have other people to do that.

 

I dont think taking your car to the strip will void your warranty....only if your modded or something. This car was designed with racing in mind...launch control, NLS....why would they have done this just for you to drive point A to point B around town? Im sure your fine.

 

Not at all. When I bought mine I had to sign a disclaimer from GM saying that if I take it on the track that my warranty could be voided. They put all that on there but then tell you don't take it to the track... Seems to me like GM is promoting street racing?

 

man i would not worry about it, you still have you warrinty

 

dumb thread...no he not going to care at all otherwise if he tells on you he cant work thus not make any money on warrenty claim...so no he not going to give a rats ass..../thread

 

Your warranty will not be voided by you taking your car to the track. Even if he sees you beating the heck out of it, they still will not void the warranty based on that alone.

 

he prolly could care less anyway

 

you still have warranty dude

 

I'd say the warrenty is still good, it's the insurance company who won't like you being at the track. Wreck there, and they're probably not going to cover it, unless you get insurance for compitition.

 

he was racing his car and 4wheeler. he recongize me. i have the only ss/tc in my area.

 

Reguardless. If something happened to your car, he would have to prove that abuse is what caused the part to malfunction/go bad. Your warranty will not be voided simply by you being at the track. GMPP is who will viod it, not a mechanic.

 

Exactly, the only thing that will be voided is your insurance policy

 

If he was racing his own car you're probably safe, i would of probably shoot the **** with him since he recognized just to get on his good side.

Try viewing this from gm's point of view, not a consumers point of view.
Owner brings in a car with a busted tranny, mechanic says he saw the owner racing at the local track, dealer informs gm about this, beancounter at gm says this is abuse as outlined in the warranty booklet, owner is screwed.
You obviously have no knowledge of how a company views abuse of their product when it comes in for service when something broke. The beancounters who make these warranty decisions don't care that gm did 600 launches at the track to test the clutch of the car or if it has no lift to shift, if you're racing the car at the track its considered abuse to them.

 

that is very true. I see what you are saying. Thanks

 

speaking of warranty being voided. If I add Hahn turbo piping and hahn intake with an hks blow off valve would gm void the warranty?

 

There is no such thing as "voiding a warranty." When you change parts, any other parts they may effect lose warranty coverage. So for the charge pipe and blow off valve, you would lose coverage on pretty much all the parts in the engine and turbo. You wouldn't, for example, lose coverage on your parking brake.

 

as long as theres no damage to the thing you need replaced under warranty they can't say jack ****. the b/f works for a motorcycle dealership this guy came in bc he needed his clutch replaced along with some other very costly parts (i dont remember them all) and they found a video of him on you tube just burning tires and stunting the bike sent it to the corp. and they said "fix the bike" they had the lic. plate (on the vid) and everything. they said "we dont need to lose a costumer" that was the excuse when the boss said "why we have proof"
