Warranty question.

So.. Lets say for example you void your warranty by installing a stage 4 kit.

What is voided? Everything?? or just parts of the car that could be effected by the stage 4 kit?

And then obviously they wouldnt know about your stage 4 until you took it in and they say something.

Well almost all of your drivetrain will be voided because it would be really easy to blame any breakages on the extra hp. Electrical issues should not be voided however.

They have to prove your stage 4 caused the problem to void your warranty.

Yeah, after you take them to court. Who do they have to prove it to? Their boss? Just liked they blamed my tail lights going out on my Monte because I lowered it..... Not to mention they never fixed it after they charged me $200, I had to find it on my own.

As I have said before, you keep telling yourself that. If you get stage 4 and your clutch goes out, your screwed. They aren't fixing that. Plus chances our it's stage 4s fault anyway.

As I said, anything on the drivetrain is going to be essentially voided. They will tell you the drivetrain was only designed for 205hp and you are pushing more to that, hence no more warranty.

There are a lot of guys here with the tough guy "they have to prove it" attitude, but I'm telling you, it's going to be you paying for the lawyer, not them.
