    This is scary. Yours is the 3rd one to break in the last few months and before that I never heard of this problem.

    survey ??

    I spoke to an EPA person. He said something about them either taking some type of action against a manufacturer if they get at least 25 complaints about the same problem. I don’t remember exactly what he said. I think he said the action would be to make the manufacturer put out a service bulletin or something like that. I think that it is a lot easier for them to get 25 complaints when a company makes 50,000 of the same vehicle in a year compared to the number of VXs that were made.

    I am curious as to how many other people had this same problem with the welds on the converter breaking. I don't really know the posting rules and wanted to know what it would take to put a survey question out here so that the counts could be easily taken. What can be done?

    I am also still waiting to hear back from the general manager of the dealership. 8 days and counting.

    Thanks,
