Consumer Description

I TOOK MY 2005 CHEVROLET SILVERADO PICK UP IN FOR A EXHAUST LEAK. THE MANIFOLD BOLTS ROTTED AWAY. 3 BOLTS HOLDING RIGHT AND LEFT EXHAUST MANIFOLDS IN PLACE. VARY VERY UNSAFE, ONE GOOD BUMP IN THE ROAD AND IT WOULD DROP. VEHICLES WITH LESS THAN 30,000 MILES HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. GM KNOWS ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND SHOULD HAVE CONTACTED IT'S CUSTOMERS. VARY DANGEROUS. FIRE, ACCIDENT OR EXHAUST FUMES. NOT GOOD AT ALL!! *TR
