GM had a recall and the fix was a bracket that attached to the exhaust manifolds with a cable looped around the upper control arm mounts. I was with my mother in the car when she rear ended someone, the engine went out through the radiator the recall brackets ripped the exhaust manifolds off of the engine and the throttle was pulled WIDE open, this thing was screaming (pretty exciting). In a panic mom asked me what to do, I said turn off the key. Dad fixed that car as good as new.....
