Problem with manifolds cracking

Has anyone had problems with their manifolds cracking. Now that my truck is out of warranty they tell me that both of my manifold are cracked $1900.

Im no tech but has to be do to the heat at which they should replace or recall if happens to others. (just my opinion)..; ▶ Reply to This

They just happened to have one in stock (small miracle) but couldn't tell me why the miracle occurred. Who stocks an expensive manifold unless there's a known issue? Once I discovered this is a common issue, I told them thanks for the warranty work, that's probably all you'll ever see me for again. Ask your dealer if the Federal EPA emissions 8 year, 80k law might apply to exhaust components upstream of the catalytic converter.

Better yet, read the federal emissions law at http://www.epa.gov/oms/consumer/warr95fs.txt and take a copy to your dealer. Knowledge is truly power. They do not have a choice in the matter if you are protected under the law. Exhaust manifolds are explicitly cited in this law.

Good luck.; ▶ Reply to This

Miles. Now I have 86,000 and my third manifold they want $850 for. I think Nissan has a problem with these Manifolds and they all need to be replaced!; ▶ Reply to This

Oh well, I'm new here, so I'm sure I'll learn the ropes sooner or later.

Anyway, I think I'm gonna pull my manifold off tomorrow, and see what I might be able to figure out, as to why so many people are having problems, & why they seem to keep cracking.

I'll post my findings as soon as I do.; ▶ Reply to This
