Lowering springs and warranty?!?

[Blade979]

Ive asked this question a couple of times in other threads, and got no response. Im guessing it will void the warranty, but the whole thing?? The reason I ask is because it will be hard for me to keep it on the down low because I work at a GM dealer where I bought my car. The mech.'s are cool, but if anyone else finds out, the bastards will rat me out I dont want to lose my warranty.....obviously. Also I dont want to have to take them out every time anything ever goes wrong.

I am a retired GM employee, My guess as far as warranty is that if you modify something and it fails it isn't covered. Such as the motor, if you modify it from original configuration and it fails it shouldn't be covered as it was modified. The manufacturer has designed the vehicle and warranties it as manufactured, any modification would probably void the warranty. Just my Guess, check with GM and find out, but warranty says any modification voids warranty.

i know this is an old post, but i felt like people should know their rights, i worked in a 12volt shop for 4 years and we constantly had to "remind" dealers of the law. Don't ask Chevy anything they don't have a choice on the matter, the law states that unless they can prove that the aftermarket part caused the problem they are responsible to fix it. in other words in you do suspension work and blow a motor they have to fix it. They can never void the whole warranty, they can only refuse to cover stuff they can prove was caused by the aftermarket part. Now if you bought an aftermarket warranty that is a whole different thing they can do whatever they want so i wouldn't mess with that. But here is a link showing the law. www.enertechlabs.com/Warranty_Information.htm
