That's precisely why I'm real leary and cautious about any performance upgrades. It's got to be something I can reverse and revert back to stock without a trace before anyone get's my money.

Sorry to hear that...anything that makes the motor run leaner like a cold air system or tuner can cause a dealer to void the warranty.

They gave you the best advise in the other thread. and again here.

Take the Banks off. and anything that looks like its Banks.
Then get towed in and hope that they don't dig and dig looking for a reason to void you.

Or you can go somewhere for aftermarket sticks. They will install and drain all of the oil/fuel.

I say whatever you do change the oil twice in a day or 2 after repairs.

So it is assumed Banks or any other mild electronic performance will make injectors fail?

I wouldn't try to make the warranty pay for damages caused by mods, but the dealer will likely automaticly point the finger if anything is modified, even if the mods didn't cause the failure.

Why do some have injector failures and some don't? Defective parts?

Injectors fail on bone stock trucks.

So why would it be fraud to remove the Banks box when likely it didn't actually cause his injector failure, to ensure no finger pointing?

I would agree fraud if a guy has a hot Smarty, twins, and meth then removes it all to get warranty. It wouldn't be fair to DC.


My ball joints were bad BEFORE I installed the 22.5's. Do you think they will take care of me now if I take it in?

Cooter, That's exactly right, you are guilty of running some kind of chip or box or something as soon as you walk in.

How many threads are there where a guy with big tires gets voided/refused for bad fuel? Bad fuel messed your tranny up. Their was at least one guy that was accused of running Banks and he said he never has.

Big tires prevents warranty work on windshield wipers, or door gaskets.

Fraud works both ways Bob. Cause your suspension has voided your paint warranty.
I'm sorry for being the first person to ever tell someone to take their tuner or something off.

Thanks for help you all
I got the banks off and I called the tow truck.

Side note:
When I bought the banks sixgun I asked the salesman on the phone will your product void my warranty? He said NO.
Yeah I know you should never trust a salesman.

I agree. That does sound far-fetched.
