Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I own a 1995 jeep wrangler, sahara model, and the question i have is that the exhaust manifold is cracked. the dealer found it and said it should be fixed or replaced for a nominal fee ($750). i elected not to have it done at that time. this was about a year ago. after further discussion with the serviceman about this he stated to me that it is a design problem and that they have repaired or replaced many of them. my question is if it is a design problem and the manufacturer is aware of it, then they should replace or repair it free of charge. what can be done to correct this problem? am i entitled to a free replacement of the part? please let me know if you have received any other complaints about this? i am not sure of the date but had to put something in the incident date field. thank you for your help. regards, darl m. dodson, e-mail bdodfon@wpa.net. *nlm
