One of the most common questions we get at Adrenaline Autosound is, “Will installing this part void my factory warranty?” The simple answer in no. Let’s remove the myths surrounding new-vehicle warranties and aftermarket products and explore the facts.
Car dealers will often resort to scare tactics to get consumers to buy their products instead of getting those products from someone like us. It is simple economics; they make money when they sell and install their products on your vehicle. The sad reality is that statements like “your warranty will be voided if you install any aftermarket electronics in your vehicle” are not only false but telling you that is breaking the law.
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act
In 1975, Congress passed the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act to address this very issue. Car dealers had been telling their customers that letting anyone else worked on their vehicles besides the dealer meant losing their warranties, so Congress acted. Unfortunately, people have short memories, and sometimes need to be reminded of the facts. Here is a link to the Federal Trade Commission’s site on the subject:
