Looking for a dealership who will warranty truck

I just took my truck in for warranty work and everything I brought it in for, they gave me the excuse that my warranty was void because of an aftermarket part.

Turbo hose clamp failure - aftermarket air filter and intake elbow
Dying alternator - aftermarket stereo system
Bad cv joint in front driveline - aftermarket lift
Turbo down pipe hitting fire wall - aftermarket exhaust
Grinding noise in T case or tranny in reverse - aftermarket tire
Funny vibrating noise under dash - aftermarket stereo
Puff of blue smoke after stting idle then throttle - normal with all the aftermarket items

They woudnt even replace my antenna that was rusting cuz they said it was normal wear after 2 years???

So Im looking for dealership who will actuay take care of the items, somewhere close to Cape Coral would be great, but Im willing to travel. Thanks

No, i was Sam, I was told not to even bother with them cuz they will back flag the truck. I had to take it to Don Gasgarths in Port Charlotte.

Ill try Scanlons like you suggestd and see what they say.

Its not like Im asking for the world either, I mean if its my fault, Ill fix it, but they didnt even look at it

How about Coconut Point Ford in Estero. My truck is there right now, of course my warranty is gone(thanks to Ryan Casserly). I am a cash pay customer so I don't know if they will help with the warrranty but supposedly have the best diesel mechanics in South Florida.

Yea, the 4x4 shops mentioned them, but I had heard from others they give you a lil hassle about lifts and tires. I guess it couldnt hurt to check with them also.
