Alarm voids factory warranty?

Hey RNewman 

Ever hear abot the Magnuson-Moss warranty act?!?

Everybody should read and understand this to their benefit !

There's a paragraph that says :

"Tie-In Sales" Provisions

In order to keep your new Plenum Brand Vacuum Cleaner warranty in effect, you must use genuine Plenum Brand Filter Bags. Failure to have scheduled maintenance performed, at your expense, by the Great American Maintenance Company, Inc., voids this warranty.

This is just a small sample of the entire act.  I suggest everyone downloads it, prints it and frames it to hang in their shops.  One note though, this is an American act and cannot be implemented under Canadian law but it could be a wedge to gain your cause.

Have the car dealer put it in writing that he refuses to warranty your vehicle because an aftermarket product was added and have him sign it.  Then you'll see if he's all hot air.  If he signs it then he just signed up for a legal battle which most dealers don't want.

Hey RNewman

Yes I'm still on the same subject !
