Ford Bronco I'm worried Ford won't warrenty this if needed IMG_0727

This randomly popped up on my way to Walmart. Checked under the skid plate and the connections and wires look clean and undamaged. The reason I'm worried Ford might not warranty this is because I installed eibach coil overs and 37-inch tires (two months ago), I also used forscan to correct the tire size so that my speedo is correct and the last thing is a wired up a winch (a month ago)but I used an isolator and 500 amp fuse. I've never taken it off-road yet (waiting on co2 tank setup), only used the disconnect once just to see if it turns on in the dash a few weeks after I bought it and that's it. What are your guys thoughts?

Usual failure mode on these is water intrusion, which should have little to do with your modifications. I am on Eibach coilovers (but stock tires) and they didn't mention it.
They replaced my entire disconnect assembly and harness under warranty.

Shouldn’t be an issue. If it is, try a different dealership.

How did the repairs go???
I'm also curious on how 37s will effect the warranty if it is drivetrain.

Forgot to add an update, but thankfully it was all covered under warranty. The part was backordered so it took about a week for it to come in and get swapped. Thankfully I didn't have to pay for this out of pocket

Do you know what the cause was? I've had it go off twice, but both times cleared out. Seeing as they have issues, definitely wondering what caused the replacement.

They told me it was leaking fluid. Apparently it's not up to them, Ford's recommends replacing the entire thing

Ok, thanks. I'm just hoping if it goes out, it's covered by powertrain or the 7yr esp I have. I don't want to have to pay $2k+ to have it replaced. If I did, I might just pull it and see if I miss a front sway bar.
