A denial for warranty coverage due to mileage and a restricted vehicle are two totally different scenarios. You're making an argument using two things that are totally unrelated to each other. This reminds me of an old saying, "a little knowledge is a dangerous thing".

Be aware that the manufacturer has access to more information than your tech is aware of.

Any time Ram is charged for a warranty repair other dealers can see it. If you bring your vehicle to a second dealership prior to the first dealerships claim being paid than the second dealership can't see it. That's the only time it's not visible. Corporate can see customer pay and internal...

Google" insinuation".

My problem is the insinuation that it's 100% impossible to have a warranty claim denied due to this tune. The uninformed may take that as gospel and find themselves in a bind down the road.

He's also stated that one dealer can't tell what another dealer has done to your vehicle which is patently false. If a warranty claim has been paid every other dealer can see what was done and when.

Then put your money where your mouth is. GDE is smart enough to have a disclaimer to insulate them from any liability. Write them and tell them you'll be financially responsible for any warranty Ecodiesel claims denied due to their flash tunes. Have them addd that to their site. At that...

To my knowledge is not a fact. Its a disclaimer to the limit of your knowledge. Talking to a couple dealership employees is anecdotal evidence and nothing more. Just because you haven't seen something doesn't make it a fact. I know for a fact that Cummins engine warranty claims have been...

Agree 100%.

I think we discussed that in the first 3 pages of this thread. I dont feel like rehashing this but i totally disagree with that statement.

I don't think any tune offered will stand behind their product if warranty is denied due to said tune. Most have an "offroad use only disclaimer" or some way to insulate them from damage claims. For example, you can read this. https://greendieselengineering.com/return-policy/

4 ft on a good day or after a few beers.

That IS the whole process. Have you ever actually looked at a manufacturers service manual? IF calibration was necessary there would be another step. Common sense alone tells you that you don't have to calibrate something you never touch but apparently common sense is becoming less and less...

So July then. Thanks for the heads up.

INSTALLATION If the windshield (1) is being reused, remove as much original urethane (3) as possible from the glass surface using a razor knife (2). NOTE: To prevent corrosion, do not damage paint on windshield frame when removing original urethane. NOTE: The windshield frame...

More than likely that's the case. They don't want to go to the trouble to find the service procedure for every make and model of every vehicle they swap windshields in. It's easier to say "calibrate them all" regardless of whether they need it or not.

That's very true. The lawyers for Stellantis decided that it's not necessary. If they felt that it was a liability to them in any way not to do it they would add it to the service procedure.

It's a documented procedure because it must be done when the actual assembly is replaced. If a glass company mandates that it has to be done then they are either ignorant or trying to overcharge you.

Sure. Why would you recommend something that's not required or needed?

100% return it. You won't be able to get recalls done in the future and extended service contracts don't cover them.
