Will This Interlock Device Void My Vehicle’s Warranty?

Getting an Interlock Device installed in your vehicle can seem a little worrisome. If it is going to be a part of your vehicle, will an Interlock Device void a vehicle’s warranty? The short answer, when installing an Interlock Device, is no.

Why? Because Interlock Devices are an aftermarket accessory for your vehicle.

Why Interlock Devices Won’t Void Your Vehicle’s Warranty

An aftermarket accessory, per the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), is “a part made by a company other than the vehicle manufacturer or the original equipment manufacturer.” Aftermarket accessories are considered as parts that do not affect the operation of your vehicle, which defines an Interlock Device.

In other words, just like installing an aftermarket alarm system for your car, your Interlock Device will not void your warranty. Think of the Interlock as an add-on accessory to your vehicle that is temporary, not as an actual change.
