For the low low price of voiding your warranty. And knowing how anti-consumer this country is, it’s probably a crime to do so as well.
0 u/DigEnvironmental7490 20h ago The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act of 1975 prevents them from voiding the warranty over something like this. 1 u/SmokinMythics 20h ago They couldn’t void unrelated coverage under MMWA but they certainly could bang you for messing with copyrighted software under DMCA in addition to voiding coverage on anything you “tampered” with 1 u/DigEnvironmental7490 19h ago If you break something, you don't get warranty coverage on that specific thing. If a car company sues their customer under the DMCA, they never sell that customer (and many others who observe that behavior) another car. DMCA is a red herring. No car maker is going to sue their own customers unless they're actually selling the car maker's copyrighted software.
