Installing 3rd party auto start

[mrlparkes590]

I have a certified pre-owned 2017 G80 and got caught up in the "3g sunset" I'm having trouble getting an absolute answer regarding the installation of a 3rd party starter and voiding my warranty. Any information would be gladly appreciated.

No, it does not void your warranty. The one I added (12V solutions) was plug-n-play, so no wires to cut or splice. If I ever need to, I can remove it with no evidence that it was ever there.

Remember, warranty laws are very clear, much to the disappointment of the majority of fear-mongering Stealerships who are so often looking for any excuse to NOT honor a warranty: Unless what you did (or didn't do) can be reasonably attributed to resulting in a, "warranted peril," then the warranty stands.

So if you install a remote starter and the rear axle fails... warranty applies. However, if the starter motor burns out... you might have a more difficult claim to justify.
