A dealership can only deny a warranty job if they can prove that the lowering kit was a direct cause of the failure. Otherwise, it will not void your warranty.

Unless you're in Canada, then they can void parts of the warranty at their own whim.

I will be doing this soon and I am aware of the Moss-Magnusson act but have anyone on here ever had grief from the dealer because of a lowering kit?

Depends on what your having issues with. Anything to do with steering or suspension and you might catch some crap from them.

yeah, I was actually thinking about going to a local dealer and to see if they would install a lowering kit so I wouldn't get any crap for having it...lol. Does Mopar offer a lowering kit? I looked but couldn't find one....

I don't believe they do. But any reputable shop can do it without worry of warranty issues if your running a off the shelf "proven" kit.
I have a Beltech drop on mine and just had my rear diff come apart and they didn't even bat an eye. took care of it with no problems.

Stands to reason if you go into the dealer claiming your stock shocks are blown with any type of drop your claim will be denied!
