    My vehicle was found to have a cracked exhaust manifold.a technician found exhaust manifold front pipe leaking. The technician also found oil cooler leaking and cover of the alternator broken. The dealer refused to service the vehicle because it is no longer under warranty. There was recall on several 2008 nissan altimas. Maybe my vehicle should have been included in the recall.
