Complaints on fileComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Filed Feb 2, 2017

THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. STARTING THE ENGINE WHEN COLD PRODUCED A TICKING NOISE. WENT TO THE CHEVROLET DEALER TO ASK ABOUT WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE. HE MENTIONED SEVERAL THINGS, ONE OF WHICH IS EXHAUST MANIFOLD LEAKING. SURE ENOUGH, AFTER CHECKING THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD A BROKEN BOLT WAS FOUND ALLOWING EXHAUST GAS TO LEAK OUT BYPASSING THE EMISSION CATALYTIC CONVERTOR AND EXHAUST SYSTEM WHICH WOULD CAUSE A FIRE HAZARD, AS WELL AS HEALTH AND POLLUTION CONCERNS. I BELIEVE THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD BOLTS ARE DEFECTIVE AS THERE ARE MANY CASES OF THIS HAPPENING ON MANY GM V-8 ENGINES
