Anyone with failed Stage-1 exhausts?
My 2017 has the factory-fitted Stage 1 kit. Unfortunately, both sides of the exhaust have cracked and the right side broken through. I noticed a rattle on the right side last fall before putting it away for the winter, but thought it was the heat shield. In getting it out this spring, was surprised to find the right side pipe totally broken through where the inlet pipe is welded to the muffler inlet. Not the weld, but the actual muffler metal has cracked and broken. On the left side, you can see cracks starting in the same place. All of 1500 miles on it...
I've reached out to the dealer, but as I'm now just out of warranty, I'm suspecting I will need to see my local exhaust wizard for some reinforcement and welding. Disappointed, as I hadn't heard of any issues with the Stage-1 pipes up to now.
