Obviously a tune voids the powertrain warranty even if there's just a remote chance the tune caused it. Ford is not going to do lab testing and a whole test series just to say with 90% certainty that the tune caused it. Every time there's an expensive and unusual warranty claim like a "blown" 3.5 EB with low mileage .... First thing they check is if someone messed with the engine or engine software.... And yes- the law protects aftermarket parts that serve same function as OEM parts. Installing a high performance tune and running the engine much harder than OEM software would allow is hardly covered under the law...

Wow. Everybody complaining about the warranty here's an idea. Don't get a tune.
