If it can be determined that the aftermarket parts caused the concern with the engine and that use of a like quality OEM style part would not have caused the failure, then it's depending upon the dealer and Ford if you bought it....



That's why the legalize in the Lopez answer about not towing in higher than stage 2 for.... Most people will either forget or not realize that their use of said vehicle (such as as High weight load in the bed) would max it out for that kit and bamn possible warranty issues.



Most issues are due to overboosting and dusting of the 6.0s when it comes to the aftermarket kits and then it's a dealer/Ford Motor Company call...



So technically modifying your vehicle won't void the warranty, but if the aftermarket part causes the fault, Ford won't warranty it, and some of these aftermarket companies start backpedaling when the owner comes after them with a $15,000 engine bill.



In fact that is the warning put on all 08 Superdutys now... If a aftermarket part is determined to be the fault of the failure, then Ford will not warranty it.
Anything the dealer finds, that has been added, will be cited as the cause in the event of an engine failure and of course since it was something you added, it's your fault and voids the warranty. Adding something like that while the warranty is in force, without the dealers written permission, (which you most likely will never get) is taking a big, big risk.Upgrading 06 ford f-350 diesel void warranty?
yes any overide upgrade voids the warranty
This is how Edge Products sees it:

"AFTERMARKET PRODUCTS AND YOUR VEHICLE’S WARRANTY

Many of our customers ask “will your product void my vehicle’s manufacturers warranty?”. While the answer is straightforward from a legal standpoint, we also

want to educate our customers (and after-market consumers) on some industry realities and offer some common sense precautions to minimize your risk.

Consumers of aftermarket products are protected by The Federal Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act. The Act provides that if something breaks on your car and you take it

in for warranty repair, the dealer must honor your warranty unless they can prove that whatever modifications you have added to your car actually caused the problem.

Edge’s high quality products never have been proven to cause damage to a vehicle when used as intended. Please keep in mind that towing in anything higher than level two and hard driving in levels four and five are not recommended.

While as a consumer, you have strong legal protection with regards to your vehicle’s warranty, there is also a practical reality that different automotive manufacturers and dealers have greatly varying views on aftermarket products, in particular those that produce horsepower, such as performance enhancement chips, modified intake manifolds, or aftermarket exhaust systems.

There are dealers and manufacturers out there that will use the presence of a horsepower upgrade to void your vehicle’s

warranty. They will do this regardless of whose product you are using. Any aftermarket company that does not acknowledge this is misleading you.

This is also the reason that Edge focuses the bulk of their product development efforts on modules and digital monitors, which can be easily removed before taking your car to a dealer if required.

The bottom line is that while the law protects the consumer and provides for enforcement of the warranty, it is very difficult for most people to hire an attorney and fight a voided warranty. It is for this reason that Edge recommends always disconnect and remove your module and monitor when you take your vehicle to a dealer for warranty work."Upgrading 06 ford f-350 diesel void warranty?
Adding upgrade parts won't void any warranties. However, if the part you add causes a failure, Ford will not pay to fix it under warranty.



So for example, you add a Superchips programmer, now you have tons of hp. If you happen to blow the head gaskets from all that extra power, your Power Stroke warranty will not cover the cost to repair the gaskets.



The only sure fire way to get your warranty cancelled is to tamper with your odometer or have your title branded.
it all depends. some companies dont mind the intake but the chip will def void warranty. Its best to ask them
