A few on here have warned me that. In my posts/threads about exhaust. Some on here and other forums stated that anything more than an axel back would void the warranty so I posted this to avoid confusion

I believe it just voids warranty on all other exhaust related components

Yeah it doesn't void anything. Some dealerships are more stingy than others about doing warranty work, but you just have to stand your ground. There is no reasonable grounds for voiding a warranty in part or whole for a catback exhaust, as it doesn't effect anything else in a way that would void the warranty.

There are people with tunes that don't get their warranty voided. It depends on your dealer and how big of a chip the service manager has on his /her shoulder.

I was one of the people to tell you this because of some picture my friend showed me



Did you buy an exhaust yet? you've been going at this and made so many threads about it it's ridiculous.

I told you last time I'm buying in the spring. You seem to be ridiculous because this has nothing to do with me buying an exhaust. It has to do with the law so your chart is idiotic and non viable. Ps read the law in the link before you post nonsense

Its just annoying how you have like three threads on this crap. Just shut up already and stop making people decide for you. I was trying to help but your mind seems to reset everyday and you go back to square one and ask the same stuff over and over again. When spring rolls around youll ask yet again

First off I do not have three threads on this so stop talking out of your anus and if you knew anything I decided weeks ago on the BORLA ATAK and even cat back yet you and others tried to tell me that my warranty will void yet BORLA And the law of the land says otherwise. What's annoying is your non helping obnoxious comments on here to more than one member

Ps for your information I have started one thread on this

I have always been told that it was from the Cats Forward that voided the Warranty on drive train, so as long as you are not putting high flow cats or an off road pipe on you are good to go.
My local dealer did charge me R&R on my Flowmaster set up on my F-150 when the rebuilt the rear end though, the left pipe was not the stock pipe and it was behind the pumpkin.
