Buying TT outside of dealer region

Here's a couple suggestions. Call the manufacturer and ask for a list of certified repair shops where their warranties are honored. Or call the available dealerships in your area and see if they are set up to do warranty work for a third party vendor. Then ONLY YOU will be able to determine the risks and costs if you find yourself in that situation later...how far you may need to drive. FYI, most dealers will do repairs for bands they do not sell, as long as you pay the bill or insurance will.
