The Edge Evolution CTS3 Programmer, part # EP96TR, will not affect warranty coverage if installed properly.

Consumers of aftermarket products are protected by the Federal Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act. This Act states that if something breaks on your vehicle and you take it in for warranty repair, the dealer must honor your warranty unless whatever modifications you have added to your vehicle actually caused the problem.

You have strong legal protection as a consumer in regard to your vehicles warranty. However, Edge strongly recommends you always disconnect and remove your module/programmer and monitor when you take your vehicle to a dealer for warranty work. In addition, leaving the product connected may affect dealer diagnostic analysis and scan tool functions. Edge makes every effort to produce product that can be easily removed.

Even if you disconnect your unit, your dealer can detect the use of any programmer—even if the unit has been removed.

I am including a link to the owners manual of the Edge programmer that will also describe the warranty on the product.
