Has anyone out there taken delivery of a 2001 and during the paper signing,
have to sign and check the 3part paper form stating that if you do any of
the following .....x x x x x ......that you are willfully voiding the Ford
factory warranty?

The list included:
* Performance mods - ECU chips and other aftermarket computer chips, turbos,
super chargers, pop chargers, nitrous, etc.
* After market wheels and tires that throw off the factory off-set (since a
nasty offset like the little wheels that stick way outside the wheel wells
will destroy the bearings)
* Suspension mods - lift kits, lowering kits (other than load assist air
bags)
and stuff like that.

The business manager at delivery also said that Ford is beginning to clamp
down on warranty claims (I suspect after some of the Firestone and rollover
stuff) and that if I performed routine maintenance on my own (ie Oil
Changes, etc) that I should keep the receipts with the truck from the quick
Lube place, or the receipt from the autoparts store that I bought the oil
and filter at, etc.
I do that anyway, but he said that in the case of warranty claims after Jan
2001 that the dealership performing the work would probably begin looking at
the service records of the car closely.

Just curious if anyone else has seen this or run into it.
Later
