problem #1

Sep 102004

Sentra 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 24,000 miles
This vehicle is equipped with California emission exhaust, and the problem is the front bracket that suspends the exhaust between the manifold and the rear bracket had rusted and fallen off. There was no particular event that caused this to happen and we learned of the problem be the knocking sound made by the exhaust pipe hitting a bar on the body when driving over bumps as small as 3 inches. The vehicle had been driven around 24,000 miles, and the quote for a replacement part was $217 plus labor and taxes. There are to date no aftermarket alternatives, and the way the bracket is attached to the exhaust is an inferior design that will ensure premature failure.
