exhaust rusting
I know there was a post sometime ago regarding mufflers rusting on 06-07 Montes. I did some research and found out this is due to the exhaust being stainless steel BUT the mufflers being aluminized steel. In other words they are not stainless and will eventually rust. Just thought I'd let everyone know.

Hi James, I think this is the post below. GM did this, so that many customer's
would return in a few yearsto their dealership for replacements, to make some money : ) They cut corner's to save [X(]
