He might want to quote the Magnusson Law to the dealer. Mfg has to prove aftermarket part caused a failure, but they automatically try to buffalo the customer and cancel the warrantee.

He needs to go higher up the food chain at the dealer, asking to talk to the regional rep. If that doesn't work, call the customer complaint line in the owner's manual.

I told him to check out Magnusson-Moss. Do any of you have any tips I can give to this guy to get the dealer to realize they're smoking crack? Begin forwarded message: From: "Mike Currens" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: August 6, 2008 3:39:01 PM EDT Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [eGCMC] Fuel Pump and King's Mazda Does anyone know of a good place to purchase an aftermarket fuel pump. Any ideas on which ones are good, and which ones to stay away from? I'm asking this because my MSM started getting harder to start a couple weeks ago, and then threw a code "lean at idle." last Friday. I took it to King's Mazda, told them that I though it was the fuel pump, and left it for them to look at. They came back and said "Yes it's a defective fuel pump, but your aftermarket intake MAY have contributed to it, so it's not covered under warrenty. That will be $800 to replace." They were pretty crappy about it too. I'm never doing business there again.
