Aftermarket Engine Performance
Enhancement Products and
Modifications
Some aftermarket engine performance products and
modifications promise a way to increase the horsepower
and torque levels of your vehicle's powertrain. You
should be aware that these products could have harmful
effects on the performance and life of the engine, exhaust
emission system, transmission, and drivetrain. The
engines, transmissions, and drivetrains have been
designed and built to offer industry leading durability and
performance in the most demanding applications. Engine
power enhancement products may enable the engine to
operate at horsepower and torque levels that could
damage, create failure, or reduce the life of the engine,
engine emission system, transmission, and drivetrain.
Damage, failure, or reduced life of the engine,
transmission, emission system, drivetrain, or other
vehicle components caused by aftermarket engine
performance enhancement products or modifications
may not be covered under your vehicle warranty.
