    Warranty can only be voided if it can be proven that the issue at hand was directly related to or caused by the lift kit.

    This won't stop some dealers from trying to use it a an excuse to get you to pay out of pocket but most won't if you let them know that you're aware of how it works

    After reading different threads on drivetrain vibes here, most dealerships will not cover it although a few does. I think it’s to your advantage to build a good business relationship with your service advisor.

    The warranty is a performance contract between the owner of the vehicle and Toyota...as long as you don’t give them the evidence to deny a claim your good to go. A dealership has authority to deny a customer concern or customer complaint but they can’t dismiss a claim as they are not a party to the contract but they can collect evidence to deny a claim on Toyota’s behalf.
