Exclamation Parts warranty for O2 sensor voided?

I had front O2 sensor replaced 10 months ago and I just had it shyte the bed again. When I got the $270 bill for diagnostics, part, and labor I asked them what about the 1 year warranty. The service manager stated my car is modified and it voided the warranty.

I can accept some things being "voided" but a oxygen sensor is voided because I have an Intake and catback exhaust? Or maybe its voided because of my prodrive shifter. Damn that thing!!!

Is this arguable?


btw, i have a '00 RS

The intake is grounds for voiding that particular warranty because it affects air/fuel ratios. Plus the warranty only covered the sensor itself, not labor.
