Dumb question here, but isn't this covered under drive train warranty? I think mine just started leaking.

Yep...but the consensus from many here is the dealership "fix" simply means the problem will resurface (sorry, couldn't resist the pun)!

Mine was in fact an exhaust leak and they did fix it under warranty. Guess I'll just be prepared for the inevitable.

So far, I haven't read a post where someone had the same manifold repaired twice, but then again, I haven't read all 1.9 million posts on this forum...yet!

BTW, did you happen to be running an aftermarket muffler on your Ram? I ask because there's another thread here that wondered if non-OEM muffler would get your manifold claim bounced. I thought the idea was ridiculous, yet FCA does some ridiculous things!

No modifications to the drive train at all. All stock. I like the OEM sound. I am going to put tips on it one of these days though.

Two bolts were broken off. I'm hoping that's the last of it.
