Consumer Description

I was driving on the highway and out of nowhere the exhaust pipe after the converter had fallen on the road at highway speed. It happened to be the rear pipe leading to the muffler, which is behind the rear bumper, so when the pipe fell, it fell facing the front of the vehicle. The fact that I was able to get the vehicle to a nearby rest stop safely was amazing in itself, that nothing more tragic happened at highway speed with the exhaust pipe facing forward on the ground is a miracle. How does this happen to a 3 year old vehicle? The flatbed driver said he thought there was a recall on the Trailblazer, as he had towed several with the same problem. I called GM, they assured me that there was no recall and could schedule me a service appt to have the vehicle assessed and repaired, I declined, I already have an estimate from my local repair facility, which is still quite a bit of money.
