Yah, gotta be careful with those new tires too....They will find some way to say it was your fault even though they might have mounted them that your suspension fell apart or your brake disks exploded.

You should be safe with an air freshener, and maybe a bobblehead. Just don't put it too close to your windsheild, because if the windsheild randomly cracks due to improper factory installation, they'll try to blame your bobblehead.

Oh, sorry....you've mentioned "mod" on a web site related to your car. Thus, Mitsubishi has already voided any coverage of anything related to anything.

Seat belt pads, a new cd deck, new floor mats, basically anything. But really it all depends on the dealer.

My dealership offered me these words of advice. We will take care of just about anything, But the second you come in here with that car and there is some form of boost control on it, you can wave goodbye to your powertrain coverage. Because Mitsubishi actualy sends people to inspect powertrain warrenty claims on the Evo, and he said if i tried to cover it and they sent someone, they could charge HIM personally with Warrenty Fraud. So where is has a lot to do with your local dealership.....It also has a lot to do with your Service Manager too.

agreed, if u just keep it stock they will have to keep it under warranty, even if they dont want to. But then why did u buy the Evo if neven intended to mod it, u should of bought something else then.
