Modifications and Warranties

i was just wondering... what do modifications such as intake, exhaust, etc (performance modifications) do to the honda warranty? my mother (yes, my mother) made sure that i got the 7yr warranty on my new civic and she's completely convinced that if i do any modifications on my car that they'll make it completely void

It all depends on the dealer. Most of the time they wont void your warranty cause of those things. And alot of dealers are even selling aftermarket parts and installing them. Also they have to prove that the aftermarket part was the cause of the failure. But also if something happens, you can always put your stock part back on and they will never know.

And yes please search next time, they are hundreds of threads about this.

Sorry Dawn. He set himself up perfectly for that. We just had to take advantage of it. I know he's new and all. Although I must say, he's got a pretty sweet avatar.

You can do anything to your car that you want. They cant do anything about it. The only way they can void your warntty is if, they can prove that the certain part on your car is what caused what ever broke to break,they have to do a test and prove it. Theres a link somewhere on here thats got the law about this i have used it cuz they tryed to screw me over on my tranny and i won!!! (first it was my intake then it was my wheels being to heavy then they saw my car at the track then i printed out the law and they fixed my car for free.
