DirtySSouth Posted August 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Legally YOU have to prove that it DIDNT cause the failure....Its called the Magnuson Moss Warrenty act.....So yes your right, you legally have the right to your warrenty if you can prove that it did not cause the failure, BUT its your responsibility and that also includes hiring a Lawyer to prove your case......I dont have time for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelleyperformance Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 actually, ANYTHING added to the powertrain that is not GM approved WILL void your warranty IF (emphasize that IF) your dealer was following GM polices and rules exactly. most wont for minor things, but many do. if you dont believe me i will scan the next GM letter concerning the matter. they are getting more and more strict as time passes... especially concerning PCM tuning and modification. i like the truck, it looks clean. is it dropped at all? and im confused.... your profile says its an 03 but its got drum brakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcmahan Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 (edited) uh legally, no it doesn't. unless they can prove that, that was the cause of failure. yes you are right wody!!!!!! okk so i just talked to my uncle he ownes a chevrolet dealership. he told me that the technitions find what the problems are. if a bolt on part didn't cause the malfunction your warranty is still in effect. plus there is alot of aftermarket company that are offering there own warranty plus gm works with aftermarket companys and allows them to be covered uner the factory. cause my dads shop does bolt on performance for my uncle for new cars to include chips. if i was you i would double check and try to get some kind of refund or compensation. cause 7500 is way to much man. they charge like 4000 give or take a little for a new engine plus labor.

mcmahan Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 yeah ya kinda are hatin...i know its not a donk....and stock they are slow, so I dont consider them a sport truck.....ANNNDDD I had a chip, and headers on it, threw a rod and locked it up, and they voided my warrenty, had to front a 7500.00 doller bill for new motor...so im done with the motor, mine as well go for looks this time no not really! i just said its not my cup of tea. it looks good man. dont get so defensive. i like the truck dood.

SS Silv Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 (edited) no not really! i just said its not my cup of tea. it looks good man. dont get so defensive. i like the truck dood. Not your cup of tea, but is looks good, and you like the truck. Weird response. How about you don't get so offensive. I am with Dirtysouth, the SS looks like a sport truck, but isn't a sports truck, 15/second quarter mile is slow for a "sports truck". However, the SS has great potential for a fast truck, but if you prefer to improve the looks rather than the performance, RESPECT the owners decisions. Also, mcmahan lets hear the proper description of a "donk". If I remember correctly, his truck has big wheels but does not require a lift kit. ALOT MORE TASTEFUL THAN A DONK.

Haha thanks SS SIlv....I appreciate that buddy....ON MCMAHAN response to the SS as being, "MORE OF A TRUCK THAN THE OTHER TWO" haha.....how do you consider the SS is more of a truck than the SRT 10 or the Lightning, im not giving credit to any truck as being better, but I damn sure don tthink the SS is more of a truck than the SRT10....I own a single cab 05 SRT10 Black on Black with 22's and its my baby, in fact it sits in the garage....put it on the road against any stock SS and I think anyone looking on would say it is MORE OF A TRUCK......Just my opinion P.S. as for it being a sport truck......My LIttle brother has a stock 5.7 Toyoto with the Iforce motor, single cab short bed, and it will romp on my truck.....does that mean the Toyota Tundra is a sport truck as well ? good food for thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brobradh77 Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 P.S. as for it being a sport truck......My LIttle brother has a stock 5.7 Toyoto with the Iforce motor, single cab short bed, and it will romp on my truck.....does that mean the Toyota Tundra is a sport truck as well ? good food for thought My response on how i feeel about toyotas..lol as for dodges i believe they are a great loking truck but i do feel the SSS is more of a truck in the looks department all around...you dont have to go any further than to open up a dodges door...they have a 40K truck with the cheapest looking interior i have ever seen...the SSS looks like cadillac inside and out...therefore more of a truck IMO.
