Shouldn't as long as it isn't proved that the pulley caused the issue that you are trying to get covered under warranty.

Read your warranty.
Correct. It won't void your entire warranty but it can void that part.
I say "can" because it depends on your relationship with the SA/Tech/Dealer.
Also, if you go in for sale, a brake issue, they won't really notice a pulley as they're not looking for it.

As Sean05 said, you may want to go with Dinan as they warranty their parts
