Default Good morning Randy. Question for you, or anyone else too. Concerning the Warranty.

Good morning everyone. I was just curious. Are there "groups/types" of mods, at least in general, that will and will not void the Ford Factory Warranty? Are there systems or specific parts of the Mustang that if replaced or "tinkered with", would void it also? Will Ford Dealers generally install after-market mods for you, so long as it doesn't/wouldn't void the factory warranty?

Thanks for your time and attention.

It depends on the dealership. Most of the time exhaust and an intake system isnt going to void a warrenty. Sometimes they can be dicks about it. If you have a throttle body/plenum combo and something goes wrong with your electrical system usually they will overlook your modifications but if its related somehow to your aftermarket parts they can void your warrenty.
