The manufacturers are trying to frame this as a safety issue. It is not. Automobiles have been modified way beyond the manufacturer's spec for as long as there has been automobiles. Anytime I see an argument based on Fear I give it extra inspection. Fear is the default way to motivate people nowadays and I am very tired of it. It is easy enough to outlaw actually dangerous modifications without blocking all access. There is a financial profiteering motive behind this not a safety one.
