NO aftermarket part can void your warranty unless it is proven that the part in question caused the break down or malfunction of the car. If you got springs on stock shocks, they dealer wouldnt replace your shocks if they blow because of premature wear, other than that, it does not affect your warranty in any way, shape or form.

depends on the dealer. if something went wrong with the suspension or related parts then they could void the warranty. For example, ball joints, suspension parts, wheel bearings, half shafts (drive axle). The have a ligitimate case here, by altering the ride height the stock componets are running at angles beyond the factory specs and could be putting additonal loads not normally seen. But parts not directly related can not be void simply becuase you have an aftermarket suspension, for example your AC busts, it's not related.

Exactly, I had a dealer try to tell my lowering blew a tranny out on one of my old Lexus vehicles! I'm like dude, this is a 2WD car and even if it wasnt what does lowering have to do with trannies!!! lol


It all depends on the dealer. I have taken car with wheels, kit, drop to a dealer and not heard a peep, go to another and they act as if I drove a weapon of mass destruction into the bay!
