[QUOTE="SpeedJunkie, post: 1236997, member: 24927"] I've posted this before several times, but I had a 2015 F150 with the 3.5EB and it threw a rod with a tune on it. I was upfront with the dealer and they still put it through warranty repair. I was told that if Ford decided to audit they would have found the tune and denied the warranty, but they didn't. So, I think that comes down the the dealer. I'm not sure if you could fight it. How could you prove it one way or another? I don't know, and I'm willing to bet Ford has more money and lawyers to fight it than most people. I was told a new engine would have been about $12k. All that being said, I am not blaming the tune at all, just saying I don't know what caused it. It also did not turn me off to Ford. Shit happens. I still bought a 2018 Raptor and love it. Bottom line is I think you tune at your own risk. Probably a good idea to talk to your dealer first and ask them what they would do. I think an audit is pretty unlikely. [/QUOTE]
