Yes, that is the part number for the DB PERFORMANCE EXHAUST (like I already said).

And, like I also already said, I am interested in the MOPAR cat-back, not DBPE. If the DBPE is the Mopar one, it should say so somewhere on that page, but it does not. I don't want one that is "the same as" the Mopar one. I want the actual Mopar one, so I don't have any concerns about voiding my Lifetime warranty (I think I already said that, too).

And before somebody starts waving the Magnusson-Moss Act at me, let me just point out that all the MMA does is allow me to sue Dodge after they cancel my warranty and, potentially, force them to reinstate it. And maybe I could even get all my legal fees back at the same time. But, which one of y'all is going to front the $10,000 or so that I estimate it would cost just to start that lawsuit? I'll pay you back after I win against Dodge...

 

I'd leave it completly stock if you're that worried about the warranty. They'd be more likely to void your warranty due to bad gas before a muffler.

 

The warranty specifically says that Mopar accessories, installed by a Dodge dealer, are covered. So, IF I put on an exhaust, that's what it'll be. If the warranty was only 3/36 or something like that, I wouldn't worry about it. But, it's a Lifetime warranty and I believe that if I roll into a dealership with 200,000 miles on the clock, in 7 or 8 years, with a toasted catalytic converter, or a cracked exhaust manifold, or who-knows-what, they would take ANY excuse to not cover it - including non-Dodge/Mopar muffler. I don't want to risk that. The Lifetime warranty is the whole reason I bought this truck.

 

Everything can be considered a wear item. 200,000 miles from now they'll tell you it's past it's useful life and ask you to pay for it anyway. It's just like brakes, wipers, & tires, everything has a lifespan. Even us.

 

Not sure if you were just being funny but yes wear items such as brakes, wiper, tires etc. will never be covered but the lifetime warranty is just that...lifetime. It's not based on part lifespan so if I have 250,000 and my engine craps out...I get a new one free of charge (less the $100 deductible of course). Now as far as exhaust goes, I've never known an extended warranty to cover exhaust unless you pay for that extra. The muffler and pipes after the catalytic converter are usually never covered. O2 sensors and the Catalytic converter...not sure...would have to look it up.

Your warranty covers the internal parts of the engine, trans, rear end. It will not cover your exhaust or any of the sensors. They are covered under the emissions portion which is 7 or 10 years depending on the part. Remember that none of your engine accessories are covered either, that being the alternator, ac compressor powersteering pump etc. Your water pump is not internally lubricated and is not covered by most warranties, but I think the lifetime mopar one covers the water pump. The length of time is forever if you are the original purchaser, but the items covered are limited. Don't forget to get your free, but mandated 5 year inspections.

 

I bought the Lifetime Maximum Care Wrap. Everything is covered except normal wear items (brake pads, light bulbs, batteries, tires), glass and plastic lenses, and paint.

And the Max Care warranty IS transferable in FL and NC (though the Powertrain warranty is still not). :-D

 

If I read the brochure right, it even covers Mopar accessories, if they are installed by an authorized dealer. Thus, my desire to get an actual Mopar cat back...

Did you ever get this put to bed? I am nearing the point to exhaust and I, like you want Mopar for the same reasons you want Mopar.

Just curious if you got one, how you like, etc.

I ordered the Corsa from Summit Racing, told them that Moparsupenter had it for $620, they matched price and shipped for $18. Moparsuper wanted $75 for shipping. Sounds absolutely amazing.
