problem #1

Apr 022015

Grand Cherokee 4WD 6-cyl

  • 92,620 miles
While returning to my home in NJ from a trip to fl, I heard a loud thump from the rear passenger side of the car followed by a noticeable change in exhaust note. I pulled into a gas station a few miles away and inspected the vehicle. The rear portion of the exhaust was missing, from what appeared to be separation due to corrosion. The rear bumper melted at the point above where the exhaust tip extends. Of course, warranty coverage for this part expired at 8 yrs/80K miles.
