Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Took vehicle in for service and was told that a exhaust manifold bolt was broken. Vehicle warranty had just expired and repair would be about 900.00. I researched this issue online and found that several other people have had this same issue with their GM product. This should be investigated as a possible recall. This being an emissions issue will cause my vehicle to fail the emissions test and could possibly cause exhaust in the passenger compartment.”
