When does Warranty get VOIDED?
I have a 2009 F150 Regular Cab, still under FORD warranty. I want to get a Transmission Cooler and Electric Brake Controller installed from U-haul. Will my warranty be voided if i do that? Since its not a Ford Dealership. I had to get a Class III Hitch installed from U-Haul, Ford dealerhship didn't install hitches.

For the ones that say it wont void the warranty, ask the dealer to give you a paper in writing on there letterhead signed by the service manager or some higher up just in case you do have a problem they wont be ****ing with you!

Ford has to prove that whatever aftermarket product you install causes a problem that you bring in for warranty work. There's a law in the US, I can't remember what it is called, but there are 100+ threads in the forum referencing it.

Moss-Magnuson Act. FoMoCo must PROVE that your modification caused the damage to the part you are seeking to repair in order to deny warranty coverage. My cold air intake causes engine knock and I crack a cylinder head due to increased pressure? I eat the repair if Ford can demonstrate my mod caused the problem directly. Problem is...even if Ford is full of it when they deny coverage...this means arbitration or court. Time, money and grey hair.
