Will adding an aftermarket remote starter affect the warranty in any
manner?

Only if it causes an OEM part to fail. That failure would not
be covered, but the warranty would not be voided. That is one
advantage of using only dealer installed OEM options

Not true...more drivel from our village idiot...

I knew a guy who installed an after market alarm on his Ford Focus. It was
hooked up wrong, and burnt some wiring on the headlamp circuit. The dealer
charged for the repair. A few months later, the ECM went out. When he
returned to the dealer, he was told his entire electrical warranty was
voided because of the previous repair...he ended up paying for that repair
also, and does not have an electrical warranty at all.

Mike, do us a favor...I mean, I know you like to see your name in print, but
just shut your ignorant mouth when you don't know what your talking about.

How many times does this have to happen?

Duh! What part of "Only if it causes an OEM part to fail. That
failure would not be covered, but the warranty would not be
voided" didn't you understand? That is why it is to ones
advantage to use OEM options, then the causal part is also
covered by the warranty.

IF the failure of the ECM can be shown to be a result from the
non OEM part it would not be covered. The warranty, or any part
if it, CAN NOT be voided only the warranty COVERAGE for that
failure. Only the causal part can result in that particular
warranty claim being denied by the manufacture. Try reading the
warranty booklet provided by the manufacture and the federal
warranty requirements, before you make yet another foolish
statement.

Normally I would not waste my time replying to a stupid posting
but I don't want your post taken as fact by someone who may
have a warranty problem because of you misinformation.

I understand what you said crap-for-brains...try reading your own post
again...his electrical warranty *was* voided in total.

Sorry sport, but you are wrong. My friend fought this "cancellation" of his
warranty, and lost.

Dood, fact remains, his entire electrical warranty was voided from that
point.

Heh heh...all one has to do is a simple Google search on you, to see how
often you are wrong...dead wrong in most cases.

Right...right. If you are worried about "wasting time", do us all a favor,
and shut up about things you know nothing about. You have been caught, and
proven to be a liar here...nuff said!

Obviously you did not read a warranty booklet provided
by the manufacture or look up federal warranty requirements. Your
opinion is wrong because your friend was wrong. If
you had ever submitted a warranty claim to a manufacture you
would know that what I posted is entirely correct.

Think of a letter between A and W.

Do the lines take the form of the first letter in the persons

Nope. It is your misguided understanding of how electrical systems work, and
your inability to fully understand how warranties work.

It is *you* that is wrong...again.

LOL! You are nothing more than a mark, and a proven liar here!

You are dead wrong...yet again!

Now *that's* the only thing "entirely correct" about you...

Now fall down!

Go to a very reputable installation place, one that can guarantee
their work. Also, don't take any crap from the dealership if they try to
insinuate that a non related electrical problem is caused by the remote
starter. I would not take any short cuts with an alarm installation on a
new car.
