One of the reasons I didn't do the extended warranty deal is because after I'm done with all my mods my warranty will most likely be null and voided.

I would talk with your dealer first. There is a law that prevents manufacturers from voiding a warranty unless it can be proven the aftermarket part was specifically responsible for another parts failure. However, it appears GM has the money to overturn such decisions...

I would said that too..
must be proved.... |
Yeah the law will protect you to some degree but GM WILL void the warranty on the suspension and related components. However, with that said you should still be good on everything else especially if you have a good dealer to work with. I know my dealer is cool and they know I'll be modding mine as soon as I get it home. They even want me to bring it in so they can do some before and after shots to post on their bulliten boards to show customers what can be done with an HHR. I know the suspension warranty will be shot, but then again, I usually blow my warranty clean out of the water right after I buy a car anyway so it dosen't matter to me. I've never taken any car I've bought to a dealer anyway. But I always keep the engine and drive train stock until it's proven to be reliable before starting any mods there. So far I've been really lucky. I installed a blower on my Focus when it had 10k on the clock. I sold it about a year ago with 52k and the new owner now has about 75k on it and it's still running as sweet as it did the day I installed the blower. Good luck. - Dan

We don't need no stinkin' warranty
Here's a photo of my first love... voided a lot of the warranty 6 weeks after I bought it when I cut the top off! :D
