    It’s against the law (Magnuson Act) for a manufacturer to void a warranty simply based on the installation of an aftermarket part. The dealer has to prove that an aftermarket mod damaged the warrantied part that failed. If they can prove it, then they can elect to not cover the cost of the repair under warranty. They cannot just void the entire vehicle warranty because of it. Dealers will always assume car owners don’t know this.

      I was under the impression that YOU had to prove the mods DIDN'T cause the damage, not the other way around. It also comes down to the mods vs the damage, they cannot refuse to fix a failed power window because you modified the exhaust.

      @@blover8548 if it was factory installed or dealer installed they have to, but you need to provide more info. Did you buy this vehicle new? Is it used? Who performed the installation of the features you mention? When you inquire about something and really want accurate information, it helps to remove the variables as much as possible. For all I know the lift and tires could be factory, or done by your cousin with a 45IQ and some helper squirrels to keep him focused. Or it could have been done at a Chrysler dealership, or form the factory. Without that into, you are SOL.

    According to the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act the dealership will have to prove that a particular mod caused the failure. A CAI will not void your warranty, as long as, say, the filter didnt fall apart and get sucked into the motor. Any tuning WILL void warranty.

      Legally, any part that does not affect the part that needs repair is still covered by factory warranty’s. It’s called the Magnuson Moss warranty Act. It’s federal law. There are bad dealers out there that will take advantage if you are not knowledgeable. So for example, You put a aftermarket lift kit and taller wheels on your new p/u, and then later the ECU has to be replaced. You take it to the dealer for repair under warranty and the dealer denies coverage under warranty, cause your p/u is now considered modified. If there is no direct connection between the cause for failure of the ECU and the lift kit, then legally the dealer would have to make the warranty repairs. Now you have a legal fight, if the dealer refuses to make the repairs when you call him out on his BS....Problem is most of us don’t have deep pockets like a dealer, and they know it...

    Many things are also up to the relationship you have with your dealership. My dealership pretty much has the attitude towards me ( I did work for them for two years) is if they install it they will cover it. I gladly pay a fair price for my cars and I service all my cars there. It pays to use their service department and get along with your service advisor. Those people that go in there screaming and yelling. You forgot these are people and you will get treated accordingly.

    Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act states that a warranty cannot be voided due to the sole fact that you have use an aftermarket part. The dealership/shop must provide proof that an aftermarket part used caused the issue in question- in order to "void" it.

    • @mrsmith9768
      @mrsmith9768 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      This is not completely true. You may use aftermarket replacement parts...so long as they meet OEM specification. Things like air filters, spark plugs, tires, brake pads, etc. However, if the part changes the parameters of function, performance, like headers, even some air intakes. Even a catch can can void a powertrain warranty. The spirit of the MMA, is that manufacturers cannot force you to use a specific brand of common replacement parts. But once you change systems, or performance you have now changed the actual product and it is no longer the product that is warrantied.

    How about Headers?
    Probably like you were saying about cat back exhaust being behind the Cat. With headers, Cat would most certainly no longer be covered. But, this part bolts up to the engine also, so they possibly could look at it a bit differently about it. Guess I just need to contact my Dealers Service Manager on headers! I have a 2021 Ram 1500 (Built to Serve) with 5.7 L Hemi. I put a K&N cold air intake on it, really stepped up engine sound; really noticeable when I get on the throttle. Did seem to pep it up a bit; but, not sure I buy the addition of about 38-40 HP and 30-40 LBS of torque like K&N test results show. Maybe, maybe not. But I do understand most performance guys claim the stock exhaust manifolds on the 5.7 are garbage.

    To get the most out of a CAI, you will need a custom tune, which will void the warranty. Without a tune, you will gain only 10 hp or so in most cases, even on the CAIs that claim a tune is suggested but not required. It's not worth it, IMO. Thanks for doing this video, Bro.

I've done it at two dealerships, two separate service managers, two separate modified vettes. I had to get my oil changes done at the dealerships in lieu of doing it myself, but I got the face time in. Then when I brought the cars in for warranty work post mods they were much more accommodating.

      I recently added a bbk 85mm throttle body and a jlt intake. The Daytona comes with a mopar intake but I just wanted to get rid of the rubber tube. Still have the mopar intake that came on the car if interested. Based off the butt dyno I felt like it pepped it up a notch. Mostly noticeable when you first punch it.

    **RacerX.... I just picked up a new to me 2019 Scat Pack wide body! Your content has been super helpful. However, I’ve looked everywhere for info on how to check the current or remaining oil left left. Since I just bought the car I was wondering what the current oil life shows but it’s a mystery? Any advice on how to access that in the car’s system?

    • @mcorley187
      @mcorley187 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      My oil life gauge is the center screen. Just scroll down to the gauges and thumb left until you see it. I believe it starts with tire pressure but I mostly have mine on intake air temps and it stays pulled up. You will notice you have about 10 different options when you get to the right spot. I have a 2019 392 Charger. Hope this helps. It tells you trans temp, oil temp, coolant temp, oil life, air intake temp, tq specs, hp specs, and a few others I’m forgetting.

      No problem man. I was really impressed at everything that it would tell you. Tons of info compared to my 2019 rt Durango. You can also customize your gauges in the performance pages. 1 more thing if you like to get sideways. If your in track and you long press on the traction it will cut the sway control off. So you will have two orange lights on the dash in the center of the Speedo instead of just one. Then you can drift or do donuts without it stopping you.

      Mid rang mostly and beefs up throttle response. A little pricey but it helped out a ton on my 19 rt Durango. It always felt like it was fighting itself under acceleration. That instantly went away. I went and purchased the same for my scat and just mostly noticed throttle response. Mind you I have yet to do a tune on either one of them. That’s strictly just bolting it on results.

    @andrewhigdon8346 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Again,he keeps talking like the dealership can “decide” whether or not to honor the warranty. They cannot. They can dispute a claim,but if the customer disputes back it may go to court, where the dealership has the burden of proof against them. I put supplemental air bags inside of my coil springs, the AirLift 1000 is a supplement to the factory springs and essentially increase your spring rate. If they were to claim that those caused suspension problems, they’d have to prove it, and I doubt they could. But let’s say that keeping them pumped up tight put undue stress on a component and over time caused a failure. If they can prove it, they’ve got a case, but it’s just not their opinion that matters, it’s facts. Put nitrous into your intake and blow a head gasket, it won’t be hard to prove fault.

  • @andrewhigdon8346
    @andrewhigdon8346 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Some things are easier to prove as causing the problem than others. A cold air intake shouldn’t generally harm the engine. But big 24” wheels and ultra thin tires could destroy suspension parts, and either there is plenty of case study documenting the issue or there might be plenty showing the opposite. Or it could be something unique, like ostrich skin seats. And no one really knows how that might affect the usage long term. The custom covers end up being responsible for a stuck seat motor, and they deny warranty coverage on the seat repair. But what this guy is saying is fundamentally wrong. It’s not the OPINION of the dealership as to whether or not any mod did damage, it’s a matter of them proving such a claim in court. Obviously if you put air bags on your car it’s hard to claim the factory A arms are junk if it’s obvious the bags did the damage. But if it’s not obvious, they have to prove it. It’s the law. The burden of proof is on the warranty issuer.

  • @kelvinbrown4274

    Ok y’all, take some time and read the Magnusson/ Moss Warranty Act. And big thanks MetalDad. My 14 year old and 20 year old daughters took me to go see Gojira recently, as that’s one of my favorite bands, and they love Gojira too, soooo, metal dad back at ya. But read the act. After explaining the ongoing problems I’ve been having for 16 years with my dealership, one of my best friends who is like my defacto lawyer told me that it sounded like I may have a Mag/Moss claim. I read the act, and it was mind blowing. And this isn’t just about cars, it’s about ALL consumer products. The rights we all have but don’t know about are incredible, since we are all so used to getting screwed over, but the act’s details actually make logical sense and are incredibly well thought out, and really aim at thwarting fraud, slackard business owners, and bad business practices. The explicit warranty section is straightforward enough, but the implied warranty section is a real deal eye opener. Too much to explain, but basically everything sold by a person who sells that type of item as a matter of advertising, claimed products or services, or other status’s aimed at gaining the trust of a would be customer looking to buy a product from said vendor. An appliance store may sell lawnmowers, but if that is a regularly sold product, they should be versed in the basic workings of a lawnmower. Even with an “as is” in the purchase agreement, a product sold by someone who routinely sells such a product, or advertises it as a product sold there, or claims in any way shape or form that they are knowledgeable or experienced selling said product, then that product should work as intended. Known as the “implied warranty of merchantability”, it means that if a thrift store sells you a lawnmower used and “as is”, and it never works at all after purchase, then they owe you a comparable product or the monetary equivalent, and that choice is theirs. But if you have the lawnmower for two weeks, and they can prove that it worked fine when sold, then your case might sink. But if it’s obvious that the lawnmower was never gonna survive one week, and they blow that off while you bring it up, you might want to peruse that issue. The details and duration of these expectations vary by product type. If you bought two table saws, both identical, one from a pawn shop and another from a used tools supply warehouse, chances are that if the saw prematurely fails, the used tools place will have more responsibility after sale than the pawn shop, who might not specialize in tools. I’m also pretty sure it’s illegal for them to even MENTION that mods will void your warranty because that is full tilt fraud. They specialize in selling cars and actually represent the manufacturer, so they have no claim of ignorance to hide behind. I have an 06 Dodge Magnum RT, bought brand new front the Dodge dealer less than a mile away from my home. The sale process was top notch. The service experiences will quite literally melt your Brian. I should write a book and I just might. Right when my factory warranty was about to expire, I was notified by the sales the sales manager that I could but an extended or lifetime warranty on my car, so I chose the Max Care Lifetime Bumper to Bumper Warranty . It has been both a blessing and a curse. I’ll stop there because the stories are crazy, even embarrassing for the deals per ship. The games played are well practiced and used as if impunity was their middle name. It has been 16 years of mind boggling story after mind boggling story. They once changed my address and used my ex wife’s address from a place where she lived for barely a year, and that was more than a year after divorce. They tried to claim that Chrysler didn’t want to cover my warranty claim because my address was different from what was on their information. When I asked the guy who changes that info the guy told me I was the only one who could. I took that as a blunt insult on my intelligence, and after a week of telling them how they had better get it straight, suddenly it was magically fixed. The whole of the consumer goods industry counts on and preys on our ignorance on all products.

    Maybe a matter of wording, but a dealership doesn't deny warranty, the manufacturer does that. The dealer submits the R.O. to the manufacturer for a warranty claim, and the manufacturer then approves or denies the warranty. For many, especially major issues, the manufacturer will demand an ECU read, and may require photos, video, and even have a factory warranty rep actually come and inspect the car. Dealerships don't care who pays for the repair, only that it gets paid.

Everyone here has to wash their vehicles 3 times a week at least & it’s the dry season so no rain to wash it off. My allergies started before the green pollen was visible so expect in 2 weeks from now you’ll be worse,lol, this is what happens when they lock you up for a year and your immune system gets weak.
