Dad's trusted mechanic always mentions the exhaust manifold bolts. Apparently the 00's and the 10's had too soft of bolts. If they break, it's a tedious/long job (apparently) to get them out. And, once 1 breaks, the others start breaking too. I don't know if any thing else bad happens to the engine if/when one of the bolts breaks.
