| Description of the problem | Found crack in exhaust manifold between the #1 and #2 ports at around 68,000 miles, after discussing this problem with a number of other jeep owners i learned this is a common problem with the 1999 and other years back. My complaint is, if daimler chrysler is aware of this problem and i am sure they are, why aren't they addressing it. Unhappy with dealer and stock manifold, replaced with after market exhaust manifold header. *jb |
