OK so i went to the track today,my mods are in my signiture and my first time at the track my very first run i launch my car and break my driver side axel! So my question is will the warranty cover this obviously saying it broke under normal driving conditions. My car is a 07 ss/sc with 34500 miles i have had it for two years and also baught a extended warranty so what are my options here on what to do or say or what not?

 

Yup I snaped mine in a parking lot and said it just broke. They fixed it no problem but I have only 16,000 miles on my car at the time I had maybe 11,000 or so. You can also just get ott stage 1 axles good for 325 whp and are only 225 for both axles.

 

Thanks for the reply and im broke like the rest of the world just kinda wanna get it fixed under warranty if possible

 

hope you didn't get it towed from the drag strip to a dealer...if they found out your at the dragstrip they will void everything

 

If you have an extended warranty through another provider (Not GM), have it towed to a local shop and pay the deductible if you have one. Usually if the factory warranty gets voided, the extended warranty is still good.

 

The risk you take when you go to the track. Pay for it yourself as this is your issue not gm's. A little unethical to say you don't know what happened.

 

like someone already said, hope u didnt get it towed from the strip to the dealer. I brought my brand new 370z to the the track with 1600km on it...was talking to few of the staff and they told me the same thing "if something goes wrong with the car and you need to be towed, push it away from the track and clean the numbers off the windows so the dealership wont know you were racing"

 

i agree with that.. i broke a axle 2 weeks ago at my local track.. 2 days later had zzp axles at my door.. went to the track 3 days later.. broke again.. sent it back to zzp for vender warrenty. should have it tomorrow.. its only like $241 shipped for stage 1 axles.

my theory is that if the car breaks at the track. take it out of your pocket.
on the road.. depending on what you were doing at the time GM should cover it under warrenty..

if its the fact you dont know how to change one out im going to do a full how to video tomorrow on how to change a axle.. it only take 15 mins max.

 

Issue Fixed dealer fix my car at no cost to me!!

 

Fail. Man up.

 

the part cost 60 bux from autozone and you get a lifetime warrenty..... and on top of that it only takes 15 mins to change out.

way to bring gm that much closer to going out of business.

 

**** GM, they should go out of business, horrible company they recently fucked me out of $2,000 because they couldn't replace a tensioner properly, and to cover there ass, they voided my warranty saying i have a tune, i have GM stage 2

So **** them.

 

Stage 2 isn't technically covered under warranty.

 

Yes it is. Regardless they told me it was under warranty fixed there mistake, then told me its void

**** GM, i have to get the legal system and local police just to get my car back

 

it is if its installed by a dealer and gm parts

 

yep exactly.

to be honest its not that hard and does not cost that much to fix a car.. i mean my god basically everything youll ever need you can find on here.. and if you cant replace that on your own you probably shouldnt be working on cars at all..
