Default Do you or have you had an exhaust manifold leak?

You would think after making cars and trucks for over 100 years that Ford would be able to get the basic things right. Under 100,000 miles and manifold is warped or cracked and leaking. I've never really had exhaust manifold problems until this truck. Is this a wide spread problem or just a handful?

I had a leak on the passenger side manifold, but luckily it was just the gasket. Got it fixed maybe a week and half ago.

Had mine leak. Drove me nuts ticking. Got mine fixed under 5yr 60k warranty. Very glad I did.

$100 is a steal!!! I heard $300-400 is the going rate..

Between this, Spark plugs, and Cam Phaser, I'm starting to regret getting an F150.
