Default TRD products void warranty?

If this has been discussed already I apologize but I could not find a definite answer...

So am I to understand that TRD products on our vehilces will not void warranty? I ask because if so that is awesome as I am thinking of buying eibach lower springs but if TRD products do not void warranty then I will just buy them as I hear they are made by eibach.

I only ask because I had a Nissan Frontier before and any products from NISMO would void warranty.

Thank you for the help

Nope. It's an item that can be bought at the same time you buy the car, so it's a dealer provided item. There's no way you could void your warranty. Look up magnison vs moss act(check the spelling on that). It states that aftermarket parts cannot void your entire warranty. For example, if you install an exhaust, and your mass air flow sensor fails, then they cannot blame the exhaust because it doesn't pertain to it. However if you buy a cold air intake, drive through a flooded area and hydrolock your engine, they may try to blame it on your part and void your warranty. But in the end they have to prove that the particular part you installed caused the issue

Im leasing my car (jst started) and Im goin to lower my ride with TRD lowering springs. I went to the dealership and talked to mechanics, those guys told me that TRD springs are the original Toyota part and wont void my warranty. I will buy springs from dealership and install them there. Price with part and labor is $399 which is in my opinion is not that bad. I was thinking the price will be higher. So yea, my 5 cents.

How about you click the link I posted and read what it says instead of being lazy and asking somebody to paraphrase it for you?

If there is a part you don't understand, then ask a question, I'm sure somebody would answer it then.
