I'm glad someone else gets it. GM supplies us with a limited warranty on our cars. The MMA states that GM may not change the terms of that warranty after the fact. However we are bound to the terms of that warranty contract. If we break the terms of that contract, the warranty can and will be void. Also the MMA does not cover the use of high performance replacement parts, only OEM and non OEM spec replacement parts. So if anyone tells you they have to prove that the non spec part you used caused a problem, they don't. Read your warranty contract for what you are or are not allowed to do.
