Dinan limited warranty
Dinan considers its limited warranty coverage to be a very important component of each Dinan performance product and the company wants you to fully understand it. Dinan’s objective is to enhance the enthusiast’s driving experience by designing and manufacturing the best performing and highest quality automotive products possible. Its limited warranty is intended to cover Dinan products when they are used in the manner for which they were originally designed. Like any manufacturer, Dinan cannot be responsible when its products are subjected to misuse, improper installation, misapplication, modification or neglect. Consumers are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the specifics of Dinan’s limited warranty, including exclusions and potential effects to the manufacturer’s limited new car warranty, prior to making the decision to purchase and install Dinan products and systems.
Enthusiast customers should also be aware of the Magnuson-Moss warranty act.
Cars covered by the original vehicle manufacturer's new car limited warranty
US and Canadian specification vehicles only
If your vehicle is currently covered by the vehicle manufacturer’s new car limited warranty, Dinan products are warranted for the remaining term of the vehicle manufacturer’s new car limited warranty. The manufacturer’s new car warranty is limited to 4 years or 50,000 miles (80,000 kilometers in Canada), commencing on the date of first retail sale or the date the vehicle is first placed in-service as a demonstrator or company vehicle, whichever is earlier. Dinan’s warranties are transferable when ownership of the vehicle into which the Dinan products were originally installed is sold.
The decision to repair or replace said parts is at the sole discretion of Dinan. Parts for which replacements are supplied under this limited warranty become the property of Dinan. In all cases, a reasonable period of time must be allowed for warranty repairs to be completed.

In the event of a warranty claim, Dinan will repair or replace any defective Dinan component, at its sole discretion.

General
The installation of Dinan performance products and systems may affect the vehicle manufacturer’s new car limited warranty. The vehicle manufacturer’s new car limited warranty may not apply to modifications to a vehicle or the installation of any performance accessories or components attached to the vehicle which substantially alter the original engineering and/or operating specifications or which result in damage to other original vehicle manufacturer’s components.
This warranty shall be null and void if the vehicle identification number has been altered or cannot be read, if the odometer has been replaced or altered and the true mileage cannot be determined, if the vehicle has been declared a total loss or sold for salvage purposes, or if the vehicle has been used in any competitive event.
These warranties give you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights, which vary, from state to state.
The duration of any implied warranties, including the implied warranty of merchantability and fitness for a particular use, is limited to the duration of the express warranties herein. Dinan hereby excludes incidental and consequential damages, including loss of time, inconvenience, or loss of the use of the vehicle, for any breach of any express or implied warranty, including the implied warranty of merchantability and fitness for a particular use, applicable to the product.
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations and exclusions may not apply to you.
