In all of the above cases, a modification has to be the proven cause of a malfunction for the manufacturer to deny a warranty claim. I do not see how installing a fuel pump into a fuel tank voids the warranty. That's about like saying that installing new batteries into your camera voids its warranty. The tank and the fuel pump are not one unit.

Chevy refused to cover the warranty on my vette for anything related to the fuel system when they learned that I had changed the fuel pump and filter myself.
- I should also clarify; I replaced the stock C5 pump with a C6 Z06 pump, which is a nearly identical version with higher output.
Late C5 Z06 have an in tank fuel filter as a result of evaporative emissions requirements. The models one year older had an external filter which was easily changed.
In any case, it really pissed me off.
I'm not disagreeing with you, but most manufacturers do everything they can to weasel out of liability.
