Bit of a grey area.. it depends on what fails, and why it has failed.
If a component fails due to the fitment of an aftermarket item, the warranty will not be valid.

i.e. if you fitted on some huge wheels with wrong offset and then tried to claim a wheel bearing under warranty, then you'd be having problems.

Can't think of any real issues that could come from fitting an exhaust.
