Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD A EXHAUST LEAK THAT I FINALLY PINPOINTED TO BE BROKEN EXHAUST MANIFOLD BOLTS. THE TRUCK WAS BOUGHT NEW BY ME AND HAS NEVER HAD ANY EXHAUST WORK DONE. NOW I HAVE TO TAKE IT TO A DEALER TO HAVE THIS EXPENSIVE REPAIR DONE. APPARENTLY THIS SEEMS TO BE AN EXTENSIVE PROBLEM, WITH THESE BOLTS. THIS I UNDERSTAND TO BE AN EXTENSIVE REPAIR. GM KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE BOLTS, WHY WONT THEY MAKE IT RIGHT. *TR
