Consumer Description

THE EXHAUST GASKETS IN THIS MODEL FAIL LEADING TO VERY LOUD NOISES FROM THE ENGINE WHICH THEN LEADS TO TERRIBLE EMISSIONS AND FAILURE OF EXHAUST SYSTEM. I LOOKED THE ISSUE UP ONLINE (AND ON THIS SITE) AND FOUND A TSB (01-024/07) THAT COVERED WHAT I THOUGHT WAS THE ISSUE. THIS TSB SAID THAT THE GASKET BETWEEN THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND CAT WAS CAUSING THE NOISE. *TR
