What will void my Chevy warranty?

I’m thinking of adding some aftermarket parts to my Chevy but I don’t want to mess with the warranty. Can I add features to my Chevy?

It’s good to check before you install any aftermarket parts! In general, your warranty will not be void if you properly install modifications that do not cause damage to other parts of the Chevy vehicle. However, your Chevy warranty may be void if your vehicle is damaged by the following:

Accident
Misuse or alteration
Corrosion due to environment, chemical treatments, or aftermarket products
Insufficient or improper maintenance
Poor-quality fuel
Impact (for example, a falling tree branch)

To protect your Chevy in the case of these other events, you can update your car insurance to include coverage for damages caused by collisions, weather events, and other situations beyond your control. But if the idea of comparing Chevrolet car insurance costs puts you to sleep, let the Jerry app take care of the busywork for you!

I never thought I’d be able to afford a BMW, but the new X1 is supposed to be relatively cheap! I always get nervous that luxury brands will upcharge for all of the common features on these cheaper options, though. Does the BMW X1 come with cruise control, or does it cost extra?
