Vehicle would lose pressure and would hesitate. Exhaust manifold was cracked. This caused a leakage. Took to mechanic, and informed consumer he could hear/ see crack. Had throttle sensor replaced. Contacted district manager, mark highland, and was informed that exhaust manifold would be replaced if owner payed for maintenance. It was an alternative.
In the morning the vehicle would backfire andwhen the vehicle is driven after it sits for 20 minutes. Now the dealer has replaced a exhaust manifold /catalytic converter/tps sensor/air intake housing, a broken stud in the exhaust manifold to head assembly, this has been going on for the past year and I get the same reply I can't find the problem or it's in the computer. This was all taken care off, but the problem still exsists. I've talked ato a lawyer and he couldn't help me. Maybe you can as this does cause a flame to come out of the intake. And now it's getting worse now it's when I'm driving down the road a 25 - 30 mph. What can I do? please help, scared to drive it might explode the engine while I'm driving with my son or girlfriend.
