Anybody read through the jeep literature to see if aftermarket headunits void the factory warranty???

 

Anything. I know some auto manufacturers will void your warranty if you mess with their electrical, as would be the case with a headunit. Or, if you have some issue, they'll blame it on the head unit, and not cover the repairs.

 

uhh. Whats a head unit?

 

no true, i was @ dealer bitchin about ft wheel noise, transmission noise trying to get any and all update flashes... to no avail and was bs w/ dude that said his car had burned up and they (jeep claims adjuster) said aftermarket system
was to blame and they were not covering it....... UNFRIGGIN REAL!

SO BE CAREFUL

 

The metra adapter for my aftermarket unit warned of serious damage to the vehicle's computer/electrical systems if installed incorrectly. I guess it could be possible to void the warranty??

 

boy, i don't see that warning on mine. which one did you have?

 

Just FYI when installing aftermarked system. Don't sit there and test the wires otherwise you'll mess up the computer. Also there is no accessory cable comming from the ignition so you gotta hook up your aftermarket headunit from the starter.....long story short if you don't know what you're doing take it somewhere that does (and be sure they know)

 

Nothing to worry about...aftermarket HUs do not void the warranty. Period.

If you are screwing around and fry something, however, you could void the warranty on something...but just installing an HU does not void anything.

 

What Auto Manufacturers do you 'KNOW' will void the warranty ?
