Description of the problem | Like so many others, i started to hear a ticking at startup and sometime an exhaust smell in the cab. I found 2 exhaust manifold bolts broken on each side. It can get bad enough to open a window at times. Dealer said it's a common problem. There should be a recall on a emissions and safety issue. I take very good care of my truck and this should not happen. I see it has been a problem since 1999. What can we do to get reimbursed for the cost of repair? If i have an independent repair would gm ever cover it or does it have to be done by a high cost dealership? They got vw for emissions what about gm? |
