Does Lifting a Truck Void the Warranty?

There are tons of great reasons to lift a truck: bolder appearance, improved off-road performance, better ground clearance, and more. But, does lifting a truck void the warranty?

Does My Lift Kit Void My Warranty?

While most warranty plans won’t cover extreme car modifications, minor lift kits may be covered, so it pays to do your research. As with most brands, a lift of around two inches won’t necessarily void your warranty. We recommend talking with the technicians about manufacturer-approved lift kits to explore your options.

What if you want a lift kit or suspension lift that exceeds two inches? Most likely, you will void the warranty on parts that are affected or damaged by the lift kit. So, if your wheel bearings fail after installing a lift kit, those parts will not be covered. But, if your stereo system breaks under warranty after your lift kit, those parts will still likely be covered. Additionally, remember that any aftermarket parts are not covered under RAM’s warranty — though some come with their own warranty package or guarantees.
