   But the insurance company can screw you with a LARGE increase in $$.   
   The auto company could limit greatly your warranty.  Repair shops   
   might hesitate in repairing such vehicles because the auto   
   manufacturer might find ways of screwing them on replacement parts if   
   they assist buyers who deny the dealer and manufacturer the info they   
   claim they need.   They could claim that the owner might not have kept   
   up with the proper oil changes, or other normal upkeep of the vehicle.   
      
   Who knows what the system is capable if it wants to screw the user?
