Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The exhaust manifold cracked causing fumes to enter the car. also the manifold supports the exhaust system which could fall off if crack would break completely. there must be an engineering design defect because the part has been redesigned. i also was told the used junk yard parts were cracked so i couldn't buy a used manifold. not only the cost of the manifold but the safety issues with a failed manifold have me very concerned. nlm
