after a month or so of going up the food chain at geice they are going to pay to fix my truck. they kept tellingme that in my policy was the clause about having made a modification to the air intake gives them the authority to deny the claim because i didnt report the change to them. i kept on calling asking to see it in writing because i couldnt find it in my policy. that person wouldnt return my phone calls. and that happened through about 6 people i think. then finally i got to this one guy, went through the speal of what was going on with him, told me he would call me back, figured i wouldnt hear from him again but about 5 minutes later the adjuster's supervisor called me said that it is a gray area in my coverage and that they are going to extend coverage to it and honor the claim. so basically what i figured is that they were lying the whole time about the clause in my policy just so they wouldnt have to pay. but who cares my truck is gonna get fixed now.
P.S. How deep was that water really?????

IMO if you have a problem with your vehicle and decide to take it to a dealership....TAKE ALL OF THE QUESTIONABLE MODIFICATIONS OFF OF YOUR VEHICLE AND REPLACE WITH STOCK!!!!
I also have a 2004 ford F350 6.0 diesel, has an edge chip on it. Pulled too heavy of a load up a hill with it and when it down shifted, it blew the head gasket.
I took it to the local Ford dealership and they wouldn't touch it because of the chip. I went home and removed the chip, and took it to another dealer and they fixed it.

Why do people think it is OK to add mods that cause problems and then expect someone else to foot the bill...

If you modify your vehicle and take the mods off to get warranty work done, you are cheating the system. If you add unapproved mods and all goes south, you should expect to pay for it. If you had an Edge chip on your truck and it helped cause the problem, then you committed fraud.

This is a blanket statement, not just this situation: Take responsibility for your actions. I don't care what it is, man up. You'll be better off in the long run.

Human nature! Insurance companies hit us with stiff premiums, so we try to stiff the insurance companies and then they put their premiums up. Around and around in a circle we go where we get off nobody knows!

Go "F"ing figure!
My policy is that I tell the insurance company everything in writing! They can't argue then! Oh and yes I keep every copy!
