Default Tick and Lift

I am thinking of putting a lift on my 12 JKUR but I'm afraid that if it gets a tick, the stealership will make all kinds of BS not to fix it under warrantee. Anybody have experience with ticks and lifts? I have 10k miles.

I had the same concerns but the head problems are so well documented that i don't see them getting out of it.

Now I'm not a Engineer but how does a head problem have anything to do with suspension? " I lifted my jeep so my heads in my engine cracked?" Any service manager who try to argue with you on that has no leg to stand on. The problem is a known and the dealership should have no problems getting a service authorization from chrysler approved to get the tick fixed.
