Off-Road & Competition Use
Vandal Performance products are engineered and manufactured for motorsport, racing, track, exhibition, and off-road applications. Certain products sold by Vandal Performance may not be legal for installation or operation on public roads and highways in all jurisdictions.
It is the purchaser’s sole responsibility to determine whether the purchase, installation, and use of any Vandal Performance product complies with all applicable federal, state, provincial, and local laws and regulations.
Vehicle Modification & Safety Systems
Many Vandal Performance products replace or modify original vehicle components. Installation of these products may disable, remove, or interfere with factory-installed safety systems, including but not limited to:
- Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
- Driver and passenger airbags
- Steering wheel controls
- Driver assistance systems (ADAS)
- OEM electronic systems
- Other factory safety features
Removal or modification of OEM safety systems changes the vehicle’s occupant protection characteristics and may increase the risk of serious injury or death in the event of a collision.
This product is not designed, intended, or represented as a safety device and should not be relied upon to provide occupant protection.
Professional installation by a qualified technician is strongly recommended.

- Inspection and ongoing maintenance of the product
Products featuring electronic controls, CAN bus integration, firmware, displays, Wi-Fi connectivity, programmable buttons, paddle shifters, LEDs, or other configurable functions must be configured correctly before operation.
Firmware updates, software configuration, CAN bus settings, button assignments, display configuration, paddle calibration, and all other user-configurable functions are performed entirely at the user’s own risk.
The owner is responsible for verifying the proper operation of all buttons, switches, paddle shifters, displays, LEDs, joysticks, and electronic functions before operating the vehicle.
Incorrect installation or configuration may result in unintended vehicle operation, loss of functionality, property damage, serious injury, or death.
Inspection & Maintenance
Motorsport components are subjected to demanding operating conditions and have a finite service life.
The owner is solely responsible for regularly inspecting the product for wear, damage, looseness, electrical malfunction, deformation, corrosion, or any condition that could affect safe operation.
The owner is responsible for ensuring all mounting hardware and fasteners remain correctly installed and tightened to the manufacturer’s specified torque values.
Any product involved in a collision, significant steering impact, loss of vehicle control, or any event that may have compromised its structural integrity or function should be removed from service immediately and thoroughly inspected before further use.
Do not operate any product that exhibits signs of damage, excessive wear, cracking, deformation, looseness, electrical malfunction, or any condition that may compromise safe operation.
