I love how quick the dealers are to pull the "your warranty is void" card. In order for them to actually do that they would have to establish some kind of correlation that there was unrepaired or hidden damaged. For an accident that was a year ago that is going to be a pretty tough sell.

 And the tough sell would have to be to your insurance company, since the dealer is claiming they've found previously undiscovered damage. I'd educate yourself about warranties a bit (lots of threads here, some with horror stories) and play hardball with these d-bags.
Keep us posted...
