The statue of limitations of a felony warrant varies according to the jurisdiction and the type of felony. In many jurisdictions no statue of limitations exists for a capital felony. For others it varies depending on the level. In the United States, it can vary for the same crime at the State and Federal level.

The warrant itself has no statute of limitations. If the offense has already been before a grand jury and indicted, the statute of limitations requirements have been met, and the warrant will stay active until the defendant is apprehended, unless the case is dismissed.

What is statute of limitations in Texas for a felony charge on credit card abuse?

Typically, the statute of limitations would be 7 years. However, it is important to understand that this applies to situations where a crime has been committed but no warrant was issued in the defendant's name. Even if the defendant's name is not known, a John Doe warrant can be issued. Once a warrant is issued for an offense, it NEVER goes away. It may become inactive after a period of time, say, 6 months. Even so, it can be reactivated easily by a LEO. Furthermore, if an LEO knows there is a warrant existing in your name, he may lawfully arrest you EVEN IF THE WARRANT IS INACTIVE. After arrest, the warrant may be re-activated. So...the truth of the answer to your question is...never.
