Read the piece of paper called the Magnussen-Moss Warranty Act. It's common sense- if your mods broke it, you pay for it. If it's covered by warranty and you or your mods didn't break it, it's covered by warranty even if you have modified your car.

There is no one warranty. Your car is a rolling bucket of different warranties.

But the thing to bear in mind is that this is enforced by humans and some of them are scum. A piece of paper congress calls a Law that was passed 40 years ago says that your header-back exhaust won't affect your warranty on the broken A/C you're dealing with but the guy at the dealership says that the excess vibration from a loud exhaust caused the compressor-widget to break so there's no warranty on the $2000 A/C system. Related? Of course not. Bullshit? Of course. But there's no warranty on performance and once you start modding get ready to deal with this sort of crap.

To enforce the law written on that $0.02 piece of paper, YOU have to hire a lawyer and PROVE the scum at the dealership is wrong.
