ProCal and flagged VIN in OASIS

[bendover]

This is a question for any of our peeps that work at the ford dealerships, does having the dealer install procal immediately flag the VIN in OASIS with the 3y/36k? I currently hold a 7yr/100k since I bought the vehicle as a 3,000 mile gold cpo cream puff.

I ordered a procal, but the fear mongering is getting to me and I'm honestly debating just selling it instead of having the dealer install it.

Yes. Doesn’t matter who installs it though.
Once it’s installed, dealers will see this message:

wow-seems pretty severe-guess it mainly applies after 3yr/36,000 since procal is covered (depending in situation/circumstances clause) under original warranty

well that’s a bummer lol.

a permanent giant glaring warning message for a tuning strategy that yields 20hp is rough.

It's just a Warranty Approval message since there now two parties that warranty....

Does that warning pop up for any installed FP parts?

I would love to know if it impacts an extended warranty. It’s not worth it to gain a little extra HP/Torque if the powertrain warranty stops at 36K miles.

Only for FP parts that you can't visually see that could impact the "normal" factory/extended warranty (such as module updates).

OASIS, among other things, gives warranty/recall information to dealers techs. The warranty for the Ford Performance tune is handled through a different department than the "normal" warranty process.

The big obvious warning is there so dealers don't waste their time by trying to warranty a component through the normal channels that should be warrantied through the Ford Performance department.

I would love to know if it impacts an extended warranty. It’s not worth it to gain a little extra HP/Torque if the powertrain warranty stops at 36K miles.

It doesn't outright void the extended warranty, but the extended warranty only covers the factory config. So anything that is impacted by the Ford Performance tune (engine components, PCM, etc.) will no longer be covered by the extended warranty.

Anything not impacted by the Ford Performance tune will still be covered by the factory/extended warranty.

(Same goes for most other aftermarket components you might install.)

I'd bet my life if the truck blows a hole through the block at 36,001 miles, ford would tell you to pound sand.
