Workmanship Guarantee & Parts Warranty

Our Promise


Every G&M build comes with two layers of coverage. The first is our Workmanship Guarantee, which backs the labor and installation on everything we touch. The second is the manufacturer warranty on the parts themselves, which varies by brand and product. This page covers both, and explains the role we play in supporting a claim if you ever need to file one.

Our Workmanship Guarantee

We stand behind every build and every bolt we touch. If something we installed isn't right, bring the truck back to the bay and we'll make it right.


What's Covered:

  • All labor and installation quality on services performed by G&M Motorsports
  • Adjustments, re-torques, and corrections for installation-related issues
  • Coverage period: 90 days or 3,000 miles, whichever comes first, unless otherwise specified


What's Not Covered:

  • Damage from misuse, accidents, or off-spec use
  • Failure of the parts themselves (covered separately under the manufacturer warranty)
  • Modifications, disassembly, or rework performed by another shop after our install


In plain terms:
if our install isn't right, we own it. Bring it back. The rest is what your parts manufacturer is on the hook for, and we'll help you get there.

Parts & Manufacturer Warranties


Most of the parts we install carry their own manufacturer warranty. Coverage varies by brand and product, from one-year limits on certain shock platforms to lifetime structural warranties on heavy-duty steering and suspension components.


If a part fails, G&M Motorsports will help coordinate the claim with the manufacturer when we can. That includes documenting the install, handling the back-and-forth, and shipping the part back when that's the right move. Buying a part online and installing it yourself almost always means you're on your own with the manufacturer when something goes wrong. Buying and installing through us means you have someone in the bay who knows the rep and the process.


The brands and coverage below reflect the most common parts we install. We work with many other suppliers as well; if your part isn't listed here, just ask.

Common Brands & Coverage

Suspension & Steering

Suspension is the heart of what we build, and the warranty coverage in this category is generally the strongest in the industry.


  • Kryptonite: Lifetime warranty on most steering and suspension components. Built for HD trucks; the warranty backs that up.
  • Bilstein: Limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials or workmanship on most shock and strut platforms.
  • Carli Suspension: Limited lifetime warranty to the original purchaser.
  • Cognito Motorsports: Limited lifetime warranty on most suspension components.
  • ICON Vehicle Dynamics: Lifetime warranty on structural components and a one-year limited warranty on shocks.
  • SDI Suspension: Manufacturer limited warranty; coverage varies by product line.
  • Fox Racing Shox: One-year limited warranty on shocks and performance products.
  • King Shocks: One-year warranty on materials and workmanship.


Lighting


Wheels & Tires

  • Hostile Wheels: One-year finish warranty, lifetime structural warranty.
  • Tires: Treadwear and defect warranties vary by manufacturer and tire model. Coverage typically depends on use case (on-road vs. off-road) and rotation and maintenance history.


Accessories


Appearance & Protection

  • SunTek Window Tint: Lifetime warranty against peeling, bubbling, and fading.
  • PPF (Paint Protection Film): Manufacturer-backed seven to ten year warranty against yellowing and cracking, depending on the film selected.

Warranty terms vary by manufacturer and by how the part is used. On-road and off-road coverage differ for many products. We'll walk you through specifics on any part we install, and help you file a claim when needed.

Lifted Trucks And Your Factory Warranty


This question comes up in many consultations: will lifting my truck or installing aftermarket parts void my factory warranty? The short answer is no, not automatically. The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, a federal consumer protection law, prevents manufacturers from voiding your warranty just because you installed an aftermarket part. They can deny coverage on a specific component if they can prove the modification caused the failure, but they can't void the entire warranty.


In practice: if your transmission fails and you've added a six-inch lift, the dealer can't blame the lift for the transmission unless they can show a real connection. If a dealer denies a claim, you have options. Independent inspection, manufacturer escalation, and in some cases legal recourse.


What this means for our customers: we'll always advise you up front on which modifications are most likely to draw scrutiny at the dealer, document the install cleanly, and back you up if a dealer pushes back unfairly.

How to File a Warranty Claim


If you think a part has failed or our install isn't right, the process is simple:


  1. Contact us. Bring the truck in or call ahead. Have your invoice or job reference number ready if you can.
  2. Inspection. We diagnose whether the issue is workmanship-related, a part failure, or normal wear. That determines who handles the claim.
  3. Resolution. If it's our install, we fix it. If it's a manufacturer claim, we coordinate with the brand to get the part replaced or repaired. Either way, we keep you in the loop.

Our Commitment


We treat every truck that comes through the shop like it's going to be a long-term build, because most of them are.


Whether it's a daily-driven F-150 with a 2-inch level and 35s, or a fully built Tacoma running long-travel and one-tons, the standard is the same: do it right the first time, and stand behind the work for as long as the customer owns the truck.


That's been the standard since 2011, and it isn't changing.
