SRT/4 and Mopar stages

[1sty]

Just for al those considering the SRT/4 I have been brwosing the SRT boards and found that the Mopar satge I upgarde is in no way covered under warrenty. The upgrade is considered modification to the vehical as is any other companies parts and dodge will not do warrenty work it it causes a problem.

And it's offered by them? That's pretty stupid.

Some dealers are claiming it won't void it but the official dodge release on the subject says:

1. The mopar kit is not covered by dodge in any way with any warrenty.
2. Dealers are not supposed to install in
3. If a malfuction occurs becuase of it the factory warrenty is vioded.

[Newf]

ok, that's really REALLY stupid.

wtf?

[boostisgood]

Again, it all goes back to the simple fact that: IF YOUR GONNA MOD, THROW YOUR WARRANTY OUT HTE WINDOW, IF YOUR MODS CAUSE YOUR ISSUE.

Dodge is being a bit to damn shaddy with it though.
The originaly didn't comment on it and let it be generaly accepted that it would be covered. Even most Dodge sales people will say it is. Then they VERY quietly say it will not be covered

Ok sorry but alot of people have stage 1 on their SRT and its either been installed at the dealer or themselves and its "STILL" under warranty! I have gone to the dealer near me and asked about S1 and its not a problem...if it was?... then Why would they sell it. Every stage except the Stage 3R if covered. By the way S3R if for track purpose ONLY!

its a technicallity. they just dont want every srt4 owner to come back to them. they'll make exceptions im sure.

No technicality man, they don't even warrenty the mopar parts in any way, even from factory defect!

[orangezoom]

I bet that is going to make some pissed off SRT owners, When I was looking at that car the dealer made it sound like everything would be covered, I even looked at one that was brand new no miles and had the stage one upgrade. Very deceiving

[1sty]

Since its not emmisions certified, technicaly a dealership con not legaly even install it.

[pdhaudio83]

hmm, seems a bit odd they dont warrant their products to be free from defects

Damn...could you imagine bringing your (stock) SRT-4 in for warranty work...they find an old timeslip in the car, and VOID YOUR WARRANTY because you USED YOUR VEHICLE FOR COMPETITION!!

[1sty]

Actualy I think thats part of most warrenties not just dodges.
