Toyota Warranty

I was being facetious. Magnuson is not going to pay for it. They have a 3 year warranty on the supercharger itself, with many caveats, and specifically say that they don't warranty anything to which it's attached.

 

Yeppp pretty sure they do especially on Tundras

 

Ah sarcasm strikes again. Yes I did read they only cover certain things. Which makes you wonder they only cover things that it can directly effect?

The dealer can deny warranty for anything. It is then up to the consumer to prove the issue did not. The link above will tell you the cost and time involved to prove it. Good luck.

 

So if I prove it didn’t then its green lit for it? Im just trying to find a direction that leads to me not shelling out 6200

 

They do NOT cover things it directly affects. They only cover the supercharger itself.

hi op. Just had my regear done last november. i have a 2020 3rd gen regeared to 5.29. finished the gear break in change fluids and stuff. december came and i was going on a long trip( from california to alberta). my transmission didnt work, it wouldnt shift after 2nd gear. it broke down in salt lake city. mark miller toyota didnt deny my claim for a new transmission replacement. a month later i got my truck back.hope this help you

 

The only way I can think of to get around the super charger being blamed is to ask if the super charger puts more than 6000lb of strain on the transmission. Because that is what the trucks transmission is designed to be able to pull.

It would be a long shot and hard to compare, but its a straw to grasp at.

 

They have the equipment to tell them if there was any fluctuations in rpms prior to it slipping. I was told it smelled burnt up. But Im going to take another guys advice and research other stock toyotas with transmission issues w/o sc

 

Yes it does help somewhat maybe I need to contact them for guidance on the issue thank you sir

 

Yep, this! Dealer does not have to prove Jack shit! They approve or deny warranty claims, that's it! They will certainly tell you why they are denying your warranty claim, but they don't have to prove anything. It you choose to fight it, you then have the burden to prove that your aftermarket supercharger was not the cause.

Best of luck and carry on!

 

Mine isn't a supercharger but i did an aftermarket gear and they still covered my repair under warranty

 

Also I just want to note, I had a leak in the drivers side floor pan. Toyota blamed the power wire for my amp that went through the passenger side firewall. Somehow they determined that water was traveling along the wire, through the sealed hole, up over the transmission tunnel and then pooling on the driverside... all while not leaving a drop on the passenger side where the wire comes into the truck.

 

Wow im sorry to hear that

 

So your assertation is that even though you cranked up the HP and torque, that has nothing to do with your trans failure?

 

Never had my truck hitting 6K rpms
even when it started to slip I would let off the pedal if it got to 4500 rpms

 

Auto Transmission can handle a supercharger its not like Im on fast and loud ripping down the road with it.

 

Haaaa, you are hilarious. You really think you can crank up 32% more power and not have an issue? Seriously? You have to be joking. Your warranty is to cover defects, not modification failures. Adding that much more power and having a problem is by no means a defect. You have to be a man about this and accept responsibility for your actions. I know it is hard to accept, but that is the reality. Do the right thing and go out and find a transmission that can handle the extra power. That is the price you pay for modifications. The more you spend, the more you break.

 

Toyota isn't buying you a new transmission, Bubba.

 

This is it
