not sure why he is there.. i dont thin anything messed up

all he has is a gutted air box..... he cut a few holes in there.. even the stock filter is in there still.


they either want him to..

a) buy a new one from them for $500

b) leave and they will void his warranty from every chevy dealership.


what can he do??

i need quick answers

 

1. what is wrong with the car?
2. they cannot void the warranty. they have to prove that ******* with the airbox screwed it up.
3. Take it somewhere else.

 

Whats he in for? If they can prove cutting holes in the airbox can mess up the car than its voided (however the hell that can happen, lol)

 

wow i would call GM asap thats some gay ass ****, ive never heard of someone actually getting warranty voided from an air intake. must be a lame ass dealership.

 

ill call him right now and ask him why he is there.

 

sounds fishy they shouldnt be able to void his warrenty just because of that

 

tell them hes gonna get a lawer and Magnuson Moss Warranty ACT

 

get on the calssifieds looks thru pages if you have too, buy it ASAP pay extra so the seller can do overnight shipping and hope for the best...wait why would it cost 500 for a stock intake?thats to much, when i needed a stock one i bought i off my friend w/a 2.4 and it fit my 2.2 perfectly, al for $20...is the ss/sc's intake that expensive??? and i thought thy couldnt void the warranty unless the mod caused the problem, if nothings wrong w/it than they should do that, i had a modded intake that made my car thow a CEL, i went to the dealer and they just cleared it, and let me be on my way, warranty intact and everything

 

Legally, a vehicle manufacturer cannot void the warranty on a vehicle due to an aftermarket part unless they can prove that the aftermarket part caused or contributed to the failure in the vehicle (per the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act (15 U.S.C. 2302(C))

 

he is there for the SUNROOF SWITCH FALLING OFF


and

WIPER MOTOR..


wtf.. thats it. i told him about the magnuson-moss act...

can someone post it here?? He will be in this thread shortly... he left the dealership, and leaving his car there... i told him to talk to the owner of the dealership which he is tomorrow

 

"Legally, a vehicle manufacturer cannot void the warranty on a vehicle due to an aftermarket part unless they can prove that the aftermarket part caused or contributed to the failure in the vehicle (per the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act (15 U.S.C. 2302(C))"


^^^what he said...hmm than why didnt they void mine, on the paper it said the mods was the cause of the problem and that it will most likely come back up if not correted

 

LOL. What complete bs. Tell him to prove that holes in a airbox will cause a wiper motor to go out or have anything to do with a sunroof switch..Is this a joke??? lol

 

Lol they cant void his warranty for replacing wiper motor, and sunroof switch because of a hacked airbox, the airbox has no fault of either of the two, a dealer can only void it if they can prove the modified part caused the problem.

 

they didnt say it caused it.. theya re just saying.. they saw it.. and it isnt stock.

 

Yes, the air box caused his sunroof switch and wiper motor to fail. They're full of ****. They can't void his warranty. they can't void warranty for SEEING tha part. They have to prove it caused a problem, that is the only way they can void his warranty.

 

They cant do **** period, he should have taken it else where.

 

well he didnt know...


now what can he do? since they are NOT saying it caused the problem

 

If the intake sucked up water and hydrolocked the engine then they could void the warranty...

but for a sunroof switch? They're just trying to make money off him. Take it to another dealer or have them prove the airbox is what caused his problems.

 

They should fix it! lol. Have them get the rep down there if he cant come to a simple agreement with the owner.

 

yo ryan get him to go to another dealer. they cant just void a warrenty with no proof. PERIOD. ive had a gm tech come up to me and say we can install stg 3 and the nitrious. but if the engine blows DUE TO THE STG 3 and NITRIOUS. the motor is out of warrenty, but if my radio or sunroof or something else went bad, he said yep no problem.

They can not prove that the air box cause a sunroof switch, complete BS! liek the others said, say good bye to that dealership, **** have that dealership call the district gm person and they will tell them your an idiot, fix it


even then only the engine would be void, everything inside and your powertrain would still be intact warrenty wise. they CANNOT void an entire warrenty due to a single problem. car warrentys are in parts, not just one big warrenty

 

thats what they are trying to tell me.

"oh well it could of sucked up water in all the rain that we have had the past few weeks"

its only been cut for a whole 2 days now.. hasnt rained since..

and correct me if im wrong.. the actual air filter would be dirty and ruined if water was sucked thru it.. right?

ive had it for a whole 3 weeks now... they are saying that theres misfires and valve float.... please.... ive honestly never heard of valve float on a stock car with less than 5000 miles...

 

tell them all the work you did to your grand prix... you are not a car noob.. at all

 

LOL. thell'm f-u, and just goto another dealer, they're just trying to throw BS at you to scare you into spending money on them...tell'm until it causes a problem, you aint odin ****, for them to replace your things, if they dont your gunna call GM and tell'm the situation...that way the dealer can get bitch'd at, b/c i think it's illigel to scam you into buying **** you dont nned for your aint it?? like BSing about "needing" a stock airbox and all

 

thats what i cant believe...

when i would bring the GP in they saw.. FWI, 1.9's, PEM's, 3'' DP, catback, NX kit, zzp pcm etc.. all that junk.. and still fixed it..

now i come in with a STOCK gutted intake.. come on...

 

Legally they have no power to void your warrenty. A wiper motor and sun roof have nothing to do with it. I would get my car and leave, go right to another dealership.
