Default Recall Notice

Just received the first of two expected recalls on my 2004 ZO6 on the lower control arm washer. I am scheduled to have headers installed and the car lowered by a local tuner in the next couple of weeks. Should I do the recall first? Really don't like my local dealer, but know I probably just need to bite the bullet. Opinions?

If you want to do the recall, save yourslf the worry about voiding your warranty. IMO, get the recall out finished.

Yep do the recall first. I heard many stories and seen a few warranty claims be rejected such as a trans failure on a 4l60e because they saw the car has a "cold air intake" and the tires were bald. So they refused the claim due to as i think it was stated something like spinning the tires at high speed caused teh 3/4 pack to fail. So just becareful if you want to use your warranty. Because they can make a note on the service records.
