Exhaust Mount Pin Broke off, dealer wants to replace ENTIRE exhaust.
Yesterday I noticed my exhaust pipes were significantly lower than usual on the left side of my car. On inspection I notice that a 4" metal pin that is spot-welded to the exhaust has broken off. This pin apparently holds the back of the exhaust in place, and has broken at the weld points.
I bring it in to ASC in Arlington, VA and they claim the entire exhaust needs to be replaced ($1850.00). They did say the exhaust is otherwise in perfect condition.
Does ANYONE think their advise is the right course of action? Is there a place where we can rate these service advisers?
