The problem there is that one has a legal duty to attempt to mitigate damages to a vehicle. It's written within the language of most warranties.

For example, if one were to keep driving a vehicle with an oil light on and zero oil pressure, instead of immediately shutting off the engine, BMW could deny coverage. The same principle applies here.
