Will Headers void my warranty

 

[BUD]

The law states something to the effect of: The carmaker must prove your aftermarket part caused the malfunction. Anything like stereo, power windows, steering, etc for sure would still be covered. In fact, they would have a hard time to prove headers cause any problem. It depends on the dealership, also. I would put them on without worry!

I believe the law Bud is referring to is called the "Magnuson-Moss" Warranty Act . (US Code - Title 15, Chapter 50, Sections 2301-2312)

Here is one site with an explanation of how it works: http://www.mlmlaw.com/library/guides/ftc/warranties/undermag.htm
Another with the actual federal code Title 15, Ch 50 listed: http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/15/ch50.html

OK, now that your not going to need them you can just ship them to me so I can dispose of them properly.

I've had numerous warranty claims, Even the district rep saw the car. Headers and all. The reality is the factory wants Viper owners happy. If it's not flagrant your OK with bolt ons. If they give you a problem Whine!!

Much of the final decision is made based on the dealer you go to for work. The "viper friendly" dealers will generally do their best to ignore any bolt-ons. But there are dealers that look to score points with the Zone reps and thus point out changes, which can ultimately lead to a voided warranty. Find that great dealer and it should never be an issue.
