In season 13 episode 10 of Truck U, titled "We Don't Void Warranties," the hosts, Bruno Massel and Matt Steele, take on the challenge of upgrading a brand new vehicle without voiding its warranty. Many truck owners want to modify their vehicles to give them more power and better performance, but they often worry that doing so will invalidate their factory warranty.
To tackle this issue, Bruno and Matt enlist the help of an expert mechanic who specializes in performance upgrades that won't void warranties. They begin by adding a cold-air intake system to the truck's engine to increase airflow and improve combustion efficiency. The mechanic explains that this type of upgrade is a common one that doesn't affect the truck's factory warranty, but still provides noticeable gains in horsepower and torque.
Next, Bruno and Matt turn their attention to the truck's exhaust system. They decide to replace the factory exhaust with a high-performance system that will allow the engine to breathe more easily and produce more power. However, they need to be careful not to choose an aftermarket system that will void the truck's warranty. The expert mechanic recommends a system that's specifically designed for the truck and has been tested and approved by the manufacturer.
To further enhance the truck's performance, Bruno and Matt install a larger throttle body and a programmable performance chip. The throttle body allows more air to flow into the engine, while the chip adjusts the engine's fuel-to-air ratio and ignition timing for optimal performance. Like the other upgrades they've made, these modifications won't void the truck's warranty, but they will give it a significant boost in power and speed.
Throughout the episode, Bruno and Matt emphasize the importance of choosing performance upgrades that won't void a vehicle's warranty. They explain that most manufacturers have strict guidelines for what modifications are allowed while still maintaining a valid warranty. By following these guidelines and working with experts who specialize in performance upgrades, truck owners can get the best of both worlds – a powerful, high-performing truck that's still covered by a factory warranty.
In addition to the upgrade and warranty discussion, the hosts also review a variety of truck and automotive products, including new LED lights, a portable jump starter, and a bed mat that provides protection for truck beds. They provide helpful tips and advice for truck owners who are looking to improve their vehicle's functionality and appearance.
Overall, "We Don't Void Warranties" is an informative and engaging episode of Truck U that will appeal to truck owners who are looking to upgrade their vehicles without sacrificing their factory warranties. With expert guidance, Bruno and Matt show viewers how to choose the right performance upgrades and products that will enhance their trucks' performance, appearance, and longevity.
