EXHAUST STARTED LEAKING IN THE MORNING WHEN IT'S COLD, IT GOES AWAY AFTER WARMING UP, SOUNDS LIKE DONUT GASKET OR EXAUST MANIFOLD.ALSO THE PUDDLE LIGHTS IN THE MIRRORS QUIT WORKING.

WE HAVE HAD THIS TRUCK BACK JUST AFTER WE PURCHASED IT NEW AND THEY PUT A NEW TORQUE CONVERTER IN AND THAT DIDN'T FIX THE VIBRATION. WE HAVE HAD IT BACK SEVERAL TIMES AFTER THAT . WE WERE THEN TOLD THAT WHEN THEY CAME UP WITH A FIX WE WERE BE CONTACTED. ITS STILL VIBRATING AND HAVEN'T HEARD OF ANY FIXES.

MY TRUCKS EXHAUST MANIFOLD GASKETS HAVE ALREADY FAILED AT 70,000 MILES, I HAVE A TERRIBLE EXHAUST LEAK AND I KNOW THIS TRUCK HAS NEVER BEEN BEAT FOR AN EXHAUST LEAK TO HAPPEN THIS EARLY THERE HAS BEEN MANY ONLY FORMS WITH THE SAME ISSUES SOME WHERE ABLE TO GET IT BY THE DEALER AT NO CHARGE.
