What mods void the Toyota warranty?
I want to add some personalizations to my new Toyota that weren’t offered at my dealership. I’m not trying to go crazy but I want to boost it up a little bit—give it some extra flair—but I don’t want to do anything that affects my warranty. What modifications will void the Toyota warranty?

It makes sense that you’d want to do some
easy car mods
, but doing so can often affect your warranty. It’s hard to pinpoint specific mods that void the Toyota warranty, but if the mod alters your car’s performance in a way that does not align with its original use then your warranty will likely be voided.If you simply use aftermarket parts for repairs, your warranty can’t be voided; however, your Toyota warranty can be voided by any modifications that cause the following:
- Misuse of the car, as opposed to how it is intended to perform by the manufacturer
- Damage to other components that occur during installation
- Damages that can be linked to the modification’s function
The best way to perform mods without voiding your Toyota warranty is to get installations done at your Toyota dealership or service center. They will be able to do the installation properly or tell you if an installation will void your Toyota warranty.
Even with your Toyota warranty, it’s still a good idea to set some funds aside in case of an emergency. The
