[Elantra GT] Recall ramblings

I'm not sure if it's the same on the Elantra, but when we had a cracked
exhaust manifold on my Ford Escort, it made a snapping/popping noise in time
with the engine rpms.... almost like a loud valve ticking (in fact, I was
afraid I had a valve problem before I took it in).  Anyway, I don't think
you're risking anything major by driving the car without getting the recall
done right away; you've driven it this long without problem, why do you
think it would fail in the next day/week/month?

Now if you want to ride your bike to get some exercise, that's another
story...  ;-)

   In the mail today was a bright pink postcard from my dealer with
the heading "Urgent Recall Notice". It gives a modification # of
V04. I matched the number to the recall notice I received from the
factory about the exhaust manifold about 3-4 months ago. Now my car
hasnt been making any hissing noises so I figured I'd get this done
at the end of this year. Seems now they are worried about liability
so maybe I will get on the ball.
