Default RS2.0 DC Sports exhaust

It happened today, the TIP fell off while driving , anyone had this problem ? Set up appointment next Wed. just to check the entire exhaust system, according to the service writer at dealer, then will see it is under warranty or not, I have aftermarket header installed and 31000 miles.

Anytime you try to get something our of a warrantee they claim to have never heard of it. It’s as bad as trying to get money out of an insurance company! Oh wait I guess its is kinda the same thing.......

Yes it happened to me a while ago.. It took a while to get fixed its not a screw on tip its welded so you have to get a whole new exhaust but you get the rs2.0 with badge.


heres my post I posted in feb.

Guess WHAT ( you should know ), the dealer ordered the tip only after 3 days waiting for part from L.A. Now next Wed. they estimated. I repeatedly told them not the exhaust tip but the whole CAT back system including the muffler, they screwed it up, damn !!!
