Default Best security w/out voiding warranty

I'd like to beef up my security without losing my warranty. What's the best security we can get without voiding the S4 warranty? That is, without adding a chip, installing a fuel pump shut off or other cutting/chipping/modding moves.

Thanks for the help.

Default fuel cut off....

voids the warranty - pishaw! if your service department voids the warranty for a theft deterrent, i say run away as fast as you can.

i had mine installed for quite some time. it required specific direction to the service department so they would know how to start the S4. they never had issue with it and never denied me warranty items.

don't let rumor and inuendo make your decision. call your dealer's service rep and get their take on it.

the only thing consistent about AoA service is there's no consistency.
