Voiding My Jeep Gladiator's Warranty - Aka Removing Tracking / Telemetric Features

[Levi]

I love to see more people erecting the middle finger to the constant surveillance.

Fun fact: is that doing this does not necessarily void your warranty. The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act of 1975 provides consumers with a lot of rights that manufacturers like to pretend we don't have. Manufacturers can't void your warranty just because you modified something or used an aftermarket part... they have to show how it caused the failure. Of course they may deny it and you may have to sue them... but there's a lot of rights we have in this arena.

I've been looking at doing the same on my parents new Subaru.

Fortunately for me it's not an issue:

I do realize I'm not actually voiding my warranty, but I wanted a catchy and fun title. So far so good. Just need to click the "OK" button when I start driving since it is telling me that it can't track me, by requesting a "service", but otherwise I'm good. Just need to wait, well for a long time I suppose, for the dealership to notice or ask me about an oil change. I only put on 10k miles a year so it will be a minute before that happens.
