On friday I brought my si with 7500 miles on it into honda because it would shift into fourth gear. They told me they couldn't fix at it until a honda tech came and looked at it. Well today I get a call from honda saying that the tech has not yet come out but they think the tech will blame it on abuse because I have a k&n typhoon and my front tires are worn out more than my rear. The guy also wants me to give him a confirmation on if they can open my trans and if it was from abuse I am left paying for it. what should I do?

As far as the k&n typhoon, inform them of the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. As far as the tires,the front tires will always be more worn out then the back tires on a front wheel drive car assuming they havent been rotated.

How would one go about applying that to a situation like this? I just read through it, but I couldn't really figure out how it might help Big_T. Any thoughts?

As I understand it,this act says that a company cannot deny your warranty or warranty work if a problem exists due to the fact that you have modified your vehicle. They must prove the modification was the cause of the problem.

Is this the dealership you bought the car from?
