No, but why not take it to the dealer and get it fixed under warranty? I wouldn't mess with it if it doesn't work at all.

They can not void the warranty for your audio equipment because of an aftermarket intake.

In fact, they can not void any warranty because of it at all.

They cannot void your warranty on the spot. If you had a claim against say your emissions system, then they could blame the intake, but they have to be able to prove the intake caused the problem. I wouldn't worry about it one bit. Go to a dealer and have it done.

I'm confused.... why wouldn't you? Did you get bad service at the local dealer? Is the nearest dealer 50 miles away? Do you listen mostly to the radio anyway so you don't really care? Do you work too much so it's incovenient to get to the dealer? We're talking about free work here, what's the downside?

One anonymous guy posts on the internet and you doubt the car you have?

Oh, wait, I get it! You're kidding! Very, very funny.

You know, we have tens of thousands of owners here representing an equal number of automobiles. We've heard of just about everything failing once, but that doesn't mean everything fails all the time.

If you really drive a silver you should worry about being rammed by an SUV. The CD player may be the only thing left, but at least you could sell it to beechwoodRX8 if he decides to never go to the dealer.
