The Federal Trade commission has authority to enforce the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, including obtaining injunctions and orders containing affirmative relief. In addition, a consumer can bring suit under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.

"No warrantor of a consumer product may condition his written or implied warranty of such product on the consumers using, in connection with such product, any article or service (other than article or service provided without charge under the terms of the warranty) which is identified by brand, trade or corporate name...." --(15 U.S.C. 2302(c).

It really depends on what sort of work is being done on the car. If you go to a mechanic for a major engine, AC, or other issue, it can void the warranty, but as theMagnuson-Moss Warranty Act says, the warranty can only be voided on that specific part. Also, minor work such as oil changes, belts, and smaller jobs like that are fine to have done elsewhere.

Does using a refilled ink cartridge void my warranty?

I would read over the warranty carefully that came with your printer but there is an Act in place that does not allow for warranty exclusion based solely on your use of generic or refilled consumables. However, a lot of warranties will state that they will not cover any damage that is caused by the use of the product but it will still cover any other problmes you may have with your printer.
