I just talked to a good friend of mine who recently worked in the service department of the local Ford/Dodge dealer. I asked him about warranty and tunes. He stated the machine they had that hooked up to vehicles to check problems was directly tied to Ford. Any information collected went to Ford first before it was sent back to the dealer. If any tuning was detected, the warranty stopped at the time of the tune. Did not matter if you put it back to stock or not, it showed up. Had nothing to do with the dealer and what they thought, the info went straight to Ford. He said a lot of customers where not happy and he told them they had to deal with Ford, local dealer had no control over the warranty once the info was collected. So....for me, no tune until I run out of the factory warranty. Since the dealer gave me a lifetime warranty, which is covered much like an insurance policy, I am not sure if a tune will void that warranty or not. Guess I need to read all the fine print, and see if that is mentioned.
Maybe your dealer has a way around this, if so you are lucky!
