I was getting the telltale whine from the rear end, so I took it in to the shop. Sure enough, the gears were worn. I have an aftermarket warranty, but the warranty company's inspector denied the claim due to "power enhancing parts that increased hp/tq levels beyond what the manufacturer designed it for". I have a CAI and I swapped out the muffler... not exactly high horsepower producing mods. I get that insurance companies will always try to get out of paying high-dollar repairs if they think they can.
I informed them of the Magnuson-Moss warranty act, but they claimed not to understand, and that it doesn't apply. It's a federal law, so yes it applies. Anyway...
Before this winds up in court, I'm going to try and show them that the 5 hp I gained from those mods are not enough to exceed the design specs of the stock rear end. The only problem is that I can't find what the stock 9.25 LSD rear with 3.92 is rated to. Anyone know? Thanks in advance!
