Mini FAQ: Are you nuts? Doesn't modifying your expensive little vehicle void your warranty?
A: No fair, that's two questions. Modifying any vehicle does NOT automatically void your warranty, though I hear this concern all the time. Check the Federal Trade Commission website. The Magnuson-Moss Act is what answers this question. A car maker can refuse to repair under warranty any item found to have been damaged by "aftermarket" products or repairs, but they cannot void the warranty just because you had work done by "non-Toyota" people or have aftermarket products installed. If they cannot prove that an item or repair caused the damage, they remain obligated to their warranty. An example: I add roof racks to my Prius, and the next week my steering pump fails. That steering pump is still covered, though I've quite obviously modified the vehicle in important ways.
