Apparently you cant paint your transaxle.... VOID WARENTEE
soo my truck went into the shop because i hooked up a superchip to it and i blew both the rear end and the transmission.. the dealer told me that since i painted the rear end(axle) that it will no longer be under their coverage... the only reason i painted it was cause it was rusting and looked like ****... any thoughts.. extremely upset ..
Did you tell them you had a programmer? As far as what you could do ask them to show you in writing where if you paint the axle it voids your warranty.
yess i know but the axle was starting to have corosion on it and looked terrible so now they say they wont cover it..what do i do?
Ok, I'm not trying to be a d!k, just telling you what is probably going to happen, or what they will say.
If it was rusting, you should have taken it in and tried to get it replaced under warranty.

This is considered "Altering/defacing original equipment" and it will not be hard to produce that in writing.

Unlikely but it is worth a shot. With today's economy, everyone is trying to save a buck, and if they can get out of warranty work, you better believe they are going to.
