Not to thread jack, but since you are in the position you are I have a quick question for you. Would I have any chance getting a moisture filled headlight with a blown ballast covered or partially covered at 41K miles on my 14? Or should I just suck it up and spend the money? Never know if you dont ask, right?

Ultimately in court if you can have an expert show a modification could not have caused the concern you can get it covered and any legal fees. But lets be honest, that's a huge pain in the rear so it's really not worth it. I try to be understanding when it comes to modified cars, as most techs need to be. If you lift your truck and get pissed because you keep going through u-joints it's your own fault. I will warranty the first u-joint in the off chance it was a defective part but once it does it again it's on your dime. If I were to tear down an engine for oil consumption and find the cylinder walls sand blasted and you had any type of oiled air filter I would deny warranty but it's not possible it caused an oil leak so I just repair the oil leak and keep a happy customer. I also wouldn't expect GM to foot the bill for a blown engine that has been modified with a cam or tuned. It's a pay to play sport, if you can't afford to fix anything on the car, don't modify it. My suggestion is to get to know the techs, find a common ground and be nice.
