Muffler issue, pipe seperated

[Tom15]

Hey all I have a 2020 Bighorn. The muffler pipes have broken away from each other, truck has 19,000 miles but 4 years old and out of warranty. anyone else have this issue and get it fixed under warranty. any idea the cost of the fix. Any issue driving it like this in the mean time.

Thanks

It won’t hurt to drive it , appears to be a broken bolt from what can be seen. It shouldn’t cost but an hours worth of time or so , whatever it goes for in your area.hardest part is removing the bolt but looks like it could be had from the other end with vice grips and a liberal application of fire.

Pipes should be covered under your 5yr 60k powertrain warranty. They may dispute that tho as the muffler is not covered and that's where the broken bolt is but I would push back on it as there is nothing broken "in the muffler".

Thanks for the info.
