Lets get down to the nitty gritty:

Q: Will it void the factory warranty?
A: In the UNLIKELY event that you pull into the dealer with a piston hanging out of the block......then YES you could have an issue with warranty
A: In the UNLIKELY event that you pull into the dealer with a transmission issue, then YES you could have an issue with the warranty.
A: In the UNLIKELY event that you pull into the dealer with a ring gear hangin out of the rear end, then YES you could have an issue with the warranty.


High performance is a responsibility....you cant expect the dealer to pay when you add massive amounts of power and tq to your vehicle, go out and beat on it and blow something up.

Travis, just buy the damn thing! I guarantee the first time you put your foot in it you'll forget all about warranty.

Seriously, if I were you, I'd just drive the truck as is for a few months and make sure no problems pop up. If nothing breaks after, say, three months, then I would start modding.

EDIT: After reading your other post, forget the radix and get to work!!

I know the question was "will the Radix void my warranty", but I feel this should be explained a little better.


The answer is yes, with some exceptions:

1) They can void your engine warranty if they can prove the part failure was caused by the AFTERMARKET PART.
2) They can void your driveline warranty if they can prove the part failure was caused by the AFTERMARKET PART.
3) They COULD NOT any other part of your warranty.

The factory warranty can be voided for ANY AFTERMARKET PART if they can prove the failure was caused by the AFTERMARKET PART.

I do not want people thinking that the RADIX would void your warranty, but another AFTERMARKET PART would not. The dealer is always looking for a way to make money, so the first thing they will look at is the AFTERMARKET PART if there is a warranty claim. Remember your rights under the Magnuson/Moss Act, and quote from it when and if you have an issue with a warranty item being denied. I can not stress enough: Horsepower is a responsibility, and should be treated as such in every way....Including maintenance and the way your take care of your vehicle.
