Cant believe this!

Driving down the road today and i change lanes... I was driving slow and heard something banging and bouncing so i look ing my mirror and the bouncing item looks alot like a coffe can, so i turn to the passenger in my car and i said " you didnt see me run something over did you? " mind you i pay attention to the road like there might be a black hole somewhere for fear of damaging something on my vehicle, low and behold i get out of the car and the exhaust tip was the item bouncing down the street.. i was dumb founded because there was a weld all the way around so i cant figure out for the life of me what happened and i contacted DC sports, they told me if i send the exhaust back they will see if it is a warrenty issue. do you think this will be under some type of warrenty?

This is why nothing that says DC sports will ever touch my EVO. I had their header on my RSX and it did nothing but break.

What a wacky occurence. How long have you had the exhaust? Seems like it would be covered under warranty if the tip just fell off. Good luck.

Sounds like they should replace, at the very least, the muffler.
