“Exhaust manifold bolt, driver side, against fire wall, broke off under normal driving. It is my understanding that there has been a big problem with this. Gmc should be made to repair this at their cost, the est. Repair cost from a dealer is $1,400 - $1,700. This is a bunch of bs. Is GM covering up this screw up too????”
