Consumer Description

I OWN A 2004 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 4X4. I HAVE A BROKEN REAR EXHAUST MANIFOLD BOLT ON THE LEFT SIDE OF MY 5.3 V8. I HEAR THIS IS AN EXTREMELY COMMON PROBLEM. MY LOCAL DEALER WANTS $1,600 TO FIX IT BECAUSE YOU DO NEED TO PULL THE ALUMINUM HEAD TO REPAIR IT!! I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH THE HEAD NEEDING TO BE PULLED, BUT I BELIEVE THAT GM NEEDS TO STEP UP AND FIX THIS EXTREMELY COMMON AND ONGOING PROBLEM. IT IS DEFINITELY A MANUFACTURER DEFECT!! *TR
