Description of the problem | Affecting all 2. 4l gm motors- the exhaust manifold will crack just before the catalytic converter and leak deadly exhaust fumes into the cabin. You may experience a smell at first but then it goes away and symptoms will typically include headache, nausea and vomiting. Seek medical attention immediate as carbon monoxide is odorless and colorless and deadly. This has been seen on multiple vehicles a week in the shop. |
