The guy in the Mazda parts department says that my warranty will be voided on any systems or items that a non-Mazda remote start interacts with, touches, or affects. Is this correct or is this just the guy in the parts department trying to make a sale on a Mazda installed 1-way remote (they don't sell a 2 way remote)? Is this inforceable by Mazda?
The Owners Manual says that "The SecuriLock passive anti-theft system is not compatible with non-Mazda aftermarket remote start systems. Use of these systems may result in vehicle starting problems and a loss of security protection."
I just bought a 2008 Mada Tribute with keyless entry and the SecuriLock passive anti-theft system.
