Insurance
 

I am looking to modify my exhaust, spolier, hood, etc. on my 06 mustang and was recently told that if I make any modification on the car with after-market parts my warranty will be void. I am close to 30K miles and I need to make a decision on if I am going to extend my warranty to cover the car for another 60K miles or let it expire cuz I will be making some modifications. Has anyone else debated this?:rolleyes:

your fine in most cases the problem has to be directly related to the modification to void a warranty. Plus you don't buy a mustang and not mod it haha

I think the modification has to be directly relate to the failure. I believe this is covered by Federal Law under the Magnuson-Moss law.

If you are really concerned about it you can always purchase Ford Racing Parts and have it installed by Ford. It's really expensive to do, but it might give you piece of mind. Another thing to do is KEEP all of your original parts and if something goes wrong swap it out and they will never know. I know that's hard to do with body parts, but anything to do with the exhaut or engine try to keep the original parts

Your investment!

awsome..

WTF more spam!!!

ORLY?!

I doubt that mods to your exhaust, spoiler, hood, would do too much for performance enhancement. So it wouldn't void any warranty you have. But I agree that you have to watch out with any real performance mods vs warranty issues. Just like insurance, they will try to keep from paying for something if they can find a loophole. Read your warranty manual and pretty much stick to that as a base for what's covered and what isn't.. ;)
