No, unless toyota can prove that the part has caused the malfunction, or you damage something when you do the install (had a professional mechanic friend do my install.) I'm well past the factory warranty, but when I was I had warranty and non-warranty work done and they never said anything. To date there hasn't been a single malfunction in any yaris with NST pulleys.

You will get increased engine response, weight reduction, mpg increase of about 1-3mpg, insane decrease in the auto with "gear hunting", awesome customer service, and better 1/4 mile times.

This has been my experience anyway.

i dont race my yaris.. but it would be nice to have a little more throttle response coming through tolls and on to the hwy at times.

i'll give it some thought :)
