Honda Civic exhaust manifold for 2001 model is defective. When my check engine light came on I took in the car for service check and the mechanic reveled to me that there was a one inch crack in the exhaust manifold. After saving up $800 for a replacement I ordered a new one. That was in 2008. Now coming into the new year find myself in the same predicament with a less than two year old part. This defect is widespread and I have yet to purchased a new one for fear it will suffer the same cracked fate. This part and labor are too expensive to require a constant replacement. I have has the part welded twice but that does not stay for longer than 3 months. Not having a properly working part has lead to the property damage car the crack has caused a horrible puffing sound and undue buildup up in the exhaust system.

TL * the contact owns a 2001 Honda Civic. When driving he smelled a strong odor of fuel inside of the vehicle. He speculated that the odor of gasoline was related to the exhaust system. Also the front passenger side power window was inoperative. No repairs were made. The failure mileage and current mileages were unknown.
