Defect
The exhaust pipe bellows section is not the correct length. Engine vibration causes cracks to develop in the bellows. Continued use allows exhaust gas to leak, increasing noise levels.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, the exhaust pipe bellows section is inspected for correct length. On vehicles with an incorrect bellows length, the exhaust pipe from the bellows section onward is replaced with a corrected part and the bellows section itself is replaced with a new unit. On all vehicles, the exhaust pipe mounting bracket is replaced with a corrected part.
