I've never had a problem at the dealership I bought my car from, I think the main reason is I always let them service the car things like oil change and basic stuff. The service manager made a comment that they could deny my claim but since I'am loyal customer they'll cover it
This was for o2 sensors that had been cut for the Cel fix, among other things.

Maita Subaru is hella coo. The owners son races his subaru. I went in and had a few things wrong and he told me that he'd take care of it. He just told me that he hates people coming in all mad and saying they dont care if its modified and that it still should be covered. He told me that its not a big deal for them to cover it because all they have to do is call subaru and tell them its not modified and they can hook u up. Thats what they did for me. Its that simple. Just dont be a d**k.

hehe they will never reject money. When you go in for service there is no way they will void your warranty at the time because you are giving them money. Also if you keep going in for services of course they will fix your o2 sensor under warranty, because they have already made alot of money off you and an o2 sensor cost nothing. The question is will that same dealer fix your motor once it blow due to a factory defect, and they will just blame it on your mods

Build a relationship with the dealer and they'll almost always warrant it no matter what. As soon as they realize you may buy another car from them they'll damn near give you head and they receptionist is sure to put out.
