It has some great info and steps to be taken for Warranty denials due to aftermarket parts.
Good Luck!

They can deny it hands down but the customer service seems bad. they don't like cc payments because of the cost to them.

what did the trans temp and water temp look like at the time of the failure ?

[audiofetish]

I work by Crest Hummer and I only go there when I absolutely have to. They have the worst sales and parts department I have ever seen. When I went to buy a new Nav disc they wanted to charge me over $400 and it was an older version. I ended up purchasing the newest version from GM for $200.

While I was looking to replace my dead H2 I went over there to check out the inventory and the salesman wouldn't even look at me. I guess it was because I am young and my brother took me over there in his Ford Exploder. For that, I will never buy a car from them.

As for service, my old H2 was in there twice. Both times I had to bitch and moan about getting things covered by warranty. They fixed my transmission during one service and it took them nearly 2 weeks. I was P1SSED!

Well good luck on your journey. It doesn't look like a fun one.

That's the downside to mods; you know an associated system wasn't changed and they may know it too, but it's easier and cheaper for them to decline the claim on that basis because they know what it would cost for you to bring in a hired gun and professional witness to prove otherwise.

It's all about service brother. I have been a mechanic since '81 and when I buy a vehicle I look at service.
