BEGAN EXPERIENCING LOUD EXHAUST NOISE AND LOSS OF POWER IN 1998 S-10 PICKUP IN JULY OF '07. HAD CATALYTIC CONVERTER REPLACED. AGAIN BEGAN EXPERIENCING LOUD EXHAUST AND LOSS OF POWER IN APRIL 2008. PICKUP TOTALLY STALLED OUT IN MIDDLE OF BUSY INTERSECTION ONCE, NEARLY STALLED ON SEVERAL OTHER OCCASIONS. WAS ADVISED BY ACQUAINTANCE THAT THERE WAS A SPECIAL POLICY ISSUED BY GM (05021A) THAT COVERED THE EXHAUST SYSTEM. RESEARCHED THE SPECIAL POLICY AND FOUND OUT THAT I SHOULD HAVE RECEIVED A MAILING IN MAY 2005 NOTIFYING ME OF A POTENTIAL FAILURE OF MY EXHAUST SYSTEM, I NEVER RECEIVED THE MAILING. CALLED GM CUSTOMER SERVICE, WAS ADVISED TO BRING IT TO A GM DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSIS. TOOK VEHICLE TO GM DEALERSHIP AND WAS ADVISED THAT IT WAS A PIECE OF ¿!@#$% AND THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO FOR ME. CALLED GM CUSTOMER SERVICE BACK - THEY ESCALATED THE CLAIM AND THE DEALERSHIP ENDED UP REPLACING THE FLEX JOINT & HEADER PIPE.
