Any modification that the manufacturer can prove caused a failure is grounds to deny a claim.The manufacturer can not automatically deny a claim for adding mods. This is per an agreement with SEMA.That said they can deny a claim and it is up to you to dispute it .In my case with GM on my supercharged Denali ,it was frying fuel pumps both before and after the modification.After theIi had to pay for the third one.I subsequently put on a Walbro before I had a problem with the GM pump.
They can not void your waraanty if your motor blows up because you put on aftermarket wheels and tires.They may if your axle fails because the wheel/tire fitment in their estimation caused premature failure.It is a huge gray area and a lot of misinformation swirls about regarding this.
I am not cracking the engine or SC or TC mine until the warranty is out.I just want a dependable relatively fast daily driver.If I want to REALLY go faSSt I have the 900HP Impala that will scare your hair a different color.
To answer on the mechanic ,I have my car (and now truck sponsor) that does all my work in their shop....Scott Racing and Performance.I hope this sheds some light on this confusing issue.
