I want to know if I am the only one that owns a brand new Lightning that had a warranty voided due to untraceable mods. Let me give a brief explanation.
I have 01 Lightning w/ 26k miles and I had a 3LB pulley Bassani ex. KN cone filter and a chip.
I was doing some street racing one night and I experienced a glitch between shifts...I don't know why. Anyhow, after this costly event the #4 rod flew out of the #8 cyl. wall. After pulling everything off(except exhaust and filter) I took it in and without them even looking extensively at my truck, they voided my warranty. Now, if they could have proved that I had done something outside of what was obviously modified, I would not have had a problem...BUT, they didn't even pull a valve cover or even the intake tube. They tried to tell me I had Nitrous on it. When I said that was not the case they said it was too bad and there was nothing I could do or say, my warranty was void. To top it all off I have been "Black Flagged" and now I can't go anywhere to get anything done to my vehicle.
This happened back in February. I am now having to pay a performance shop out of my pocket on top off my monthly payment and insurance to FIX my brand new truck.
