Good evening and I apologize for not posting a response sooner. I wanted to confirm everything before posting.
We are only aware of one customer in the New York region who is currently experiencing a problem with corrosion on their vehicle and we actually have been in contact with your shop. I won't name the shop on this forum as they are an excellent shop/customer of ours and we do not want to misrepresent them.
The shop was notified that a replacement rear section exhaust will be sent out when you are ready to coordinate the installation.
Also, just to clarify. The reason we mentioned that it is relevant to where you live is because New York has gone to a road salt that is very corrosive. We are concerned that all vehicles in the North East will start seeing premature corrosion and/or rust issues with their vehicles. Not just on STILLEN product but the cars themselves...It is a pretty major issue:
