Actually yes...damage your 4x4 offroad and they may not cover the warranty. "Normal" off road use? Yes, they'll cover it. Take on the Telegraph Track to the Cape? Nope...don't bet on being covered...

Vehicles sold here promoted as "performance cars" aren't being sold as race cars or competition cars. The intention is that you enjoy the extra power and enhanced driving experience...not take it into a "competition" setting. They're not sold as "drag cars".
Harley Davidson had a purely drag oriented model of the V-Rod called the "Destroyer". It was intended to be used on the drag strip, and wasn't street legal...you couldn't even register it if you wanted to. The company sold it purely for that purpose.

You want to use a car for competition purposes and are worried about the warranty? Wait until the warranty finishes and don't complain.
