It's possible.
The typical thought is ... If the non stock parts cause the failure, then they do not have to warranty the broken part or any part in that system really.
Which is the basis of the Moss-Magnuson Act.
My thought is, you will undoubtedly get someone preaching the Moss-Magnuson act and how Ford must cover this or that, court of law, etc etc .... I always ask, do you really think you can out lawyer Ford? If they decide they do not want to warranty an item, they have considerable resources to fight that battle.

To be fair, you don’t really have to. An effective social media campaign can do wonders and doesn’t cost much - if anything.

Thank you so much! I'm going 33", no lift. Hoping it's OK. Not break anything within 3 years.
Looks like you also have a 2DR Base 7spd. Have you replaced the wheel/tires?
Big Bend was my MY21 trim. Now Base for MY22.

Get specific, how much lift and what size tires?

If you put a new suspension on it, those parts are warranted by their manufacturer. You may be liable for any damage to any systems affected by the lift. Really depends on the dealer as they’re the ones who submit the warranty work. You will have no problems with unrelated systems if you need warranty work.
If you tend to be a worrier, leave it stock. Otherwise don’t worry about it and have fun.

In the way Broncos supposed to be for MOD, Ford got to honor some upgrades in terms of warranty.
When it comes to warranty work, no one at Ford is going to give a crap about that.Actually I only plan to replace the Base wheel/tire set by this: 285-70-17. No lift.

Yes, I know. The 30" base tires have to go anyway, regardless of warranty.

The is the paid extended warranty, not the basic warranty."Will bigger tires and lift void the warranty of a Bronco?"
States "sample " contract but I'd be willing to bet it's close to the final draft.
