Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The specific problem i am experiencing is a crack in the exhaust manifold. in speaking with the dealership they confirmed that this is a common problem with this particular car model. they stated that they had received multiple vehicles with this problem. this is a two piece exhaust manifold and it is my understanding that the split is occuring along the seam of the two pieces. they stated that this is a fire hazard, yet no recall has been made by the manufacturer.*ak
