Default Aftermarket gauges void warranty?

I was looking into getting a 3 place pillar gauge for the driver side and was going to put transmission temp oil temp and oil pressure gauges into it.

Will this void my factory warranty?

they will not because you will still have the OEM guages there and working. Do you have a triple pillar yet? Ive got one I bought some time back and never have used and am not going to if you are interested.

not at all. In fact, for anything to be warranty void worthy, the part needs to be proven to be the cause of anything that fails. Saying an air intake voided the warranty of your transmission is totally bogus unless it can be PROVEN to have had the effect.
Most of the time its the way the dealer tries to get out of warranty work.

Ask your local dealer or contact Chrysler direct and try to get it in writing! If dealers find any reason to get out of a warranty claim they will use it!
