Default Dealerships that will offer warranty work

https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/modi...r-jeep-132752/

After reading about the problems had with modified Jeeps and Warranty work I decided to start a thread passing out information about dealerships known to be "cool" about modified jeeps and honoring warranty work.

Post the name and location of the Dealership and if you'd like, what you had done by the dealership.

My 13' JKU Freedom Edition is still stock but mods are on the way so it would be nice to know where I can get my warranty work done if need be.

Great Post! Very curious about this as well. Can you take your jeep to any dealership for warranty work or just the one you purchased it from? Any feedback on Keffer in Charlotte, NC in regards to warranty claims on modified JKs?

I don't have a lift, but have replaced bumpers, winch installed, 33"s, rock rails, etc. Sport Jeep in Norristown, PA has been cool as hell (and they're not even the dealer I bought this used Jeep from). They've identified and fixed under warranty a few problems I didn't even know I had. I don't wheel my Jeep hard, but they knew I wheeled it, and never flinched. In fact they have a mechanic there that they said specializes in the 'high-performance' Jeeps so they have him take care of my jeep (though the mods I have aren't really a big deal). Very happy with them.

Victorville motors replaced my rear rubi e-locker under warranty. It wouldn't disengage the locker and I drove around with the rear locked for 3 days cuz of a 3 day weekend. My jk has a 2.5" lift, rcv axle shafts, evo sleeves, gussets, rockstars, corner armor, Protek skids, j.e. reel driveshafts, 3/8" thick steel diff covers, wheel spacers, bumper and winch all rolling on 37's

Ya, I love Victorville motors, my salesman is bad ass, he sends me Xmas cards with free details and oil changes, every time I go there he gets me Starbucks( which is inside the dealership). When my jeep is broken they give me a free rental car until its fixed. Its such a nice dealership compared to the one by my house. I spent 2 hours at the one in Lancaster and left with nothing, spent 2 hours at Victorville motors and traded my 6 month old f150, for my 2012 jkur and got a life time warranty for $200 cheaper a month!

Any dealership could be "cool", first time u need something done just ask to speak to the GM or manager on duty, shake his hand with a Benjamin and u shouldn't have any issues.
