Default Is it normal for the cruise control to stop working on a chipped car

mine went out..

and the dealership is goign to fix it.. but it's not covered under the warranty due to the car being chipped.
they said they would need to reflash the EMC or something?
will this affect the chip?

Find a dealer/mechanic that will do warranty work with a chipped car?

APR uses the cruise control stalk to switch programs and lockout. No problems with my cruise control - works fine.

If they reflash it, it will absolutey erase the "Chipped" program afterall thats the whole point

And now since they know its chipped good luck with any drivetrain problems
