After buying a new car, many people prefer to get car accessories installed from the local market instead of buying them from the showroom. There are many reasons behind doing this, such as accessories are cheaper in the local market than in the showroom. But have you ever wondered whether getting accessories installed from the local market will void your car's warranty? Let's know about this topic in detail.

Will the warranty expire?

Automobile companies provide warranty only for those parts which are installed by the company or their authorized service center. If you install an accessory from the local market, such as a 360 degree camera, and it affects the electrical system of your car, then the company may refuse to give warranty.

Think before purchasing accessories

If you are planning to buy a new car this festive season, then it is important to know the answers to some important questions. Are you afraid that your warranty will be voided if you install accessories from the local market? It is important to know this.

Wiring issues and short circuits

We spoke to Aftab Saifi, owner of SR Automobile. He told us that the work of installing accessories in the local market is very simple. Often people think that there may be wiring issues if work is done from the local market, which may increase the risk of short circuit. However, Aftab told us that there is no such risk while installing a 360 degree camera.

He explains that the voltage of the camera is low, so the risk of short circuit due to it is very low. Short circuit can occur only when a high voltage accessory is connected.

Insurance Claim Aspects

After installing accessories from the local market, if there is any wiring issue and a short circuit or fire incident occurs, then you need to know whether you will get an insurance claim. Santosh Sahani, Motor Head of Kataria Insurance, said that till now no case of short circuit has been reported due to the camera.

Santosh Sahani said that a short circuit occurs when a high voltage bulb or any accessory that draws high voltage is installed in the car. Even if we assume that the fire started due to the camera, it is difficult to prove that it was the cause of the fire. Before deciding to install accessories in a new car, you should pay attention to some important things. It is important to understand both the advantages and disadvantages of installing showroom warranty and accessories from the local market. If you decide wisely, you can enjoy a fun and safe experience with your new car.
