Exhaust manifold leak

Keep us updated as several owners have had or will have the same issue. Mileage varies yet yours in on the younger end.
I'd think the power train may cover it. The extended molar should, it's not a "wear out" part like brakes, belts or wipers.
Finally stopped by the dealer yesterday to check on the warranty. For some reason I thought the factory warranty had expired, but sounds like I have 5 year/60k on powertrain, so they will fix it for no charge.

Asked if they do both sides or just the leaking side, they said they only do the side with the leak

I've got 10 months and about 11k left on the warranty, so may wait awhile to take it in, since it goes away pretty quickly after cranking. Maybe the other side will go out in the mean time, 😄
 
I was thinking the same thing if mine cracked. Might as well upgrade to shorties, but after reading about it, it seems just as bad. I’ll prob go BD also when the time comes
Update for my situation... Left it with my mechanic buddy after telling him my MPG took a hit and i thought i was hearing the Hemi Tick.

He couldn't find anything with the manifold or exhaust in general as far as a leak goes and basically told me he thinks all is running fine and he didn't have a clue as to why i've lost so much MPG lately...

Officially confused as to what may be wrong....

Winter fuel and or your tire pressure is low
 
The fuel doesn't care where you live
 
He’s referring to the winter blend of fuel

I have been waiting for 5 months on the passenger side manifold for my 2019. The dealer did the driver side within a few weeks of determining the issue was both manifolds leaking and it was warranty coverage. The passenger side was a lot louder and is getting louder.... no ETA on the replacement...
