2k2 exhaust problem

My car with a whopping 2,500 miles on it seems to be falling apart. A few days ago I noticed my exhaust was a little louder than normal but I really didn't pay any attention to it. It was like that for about 2 days but I don't drive very much so I ignored it once again. Well maybe yesterday it just got really loud, almost ricer coffee can tip loud. So I've been driving around with this awful exhaust until today when I finally got off my *** and looked under the car. Some bolts holding the pipe that comes from the muffler to the other pipe that it mounts to were completly gone. The two pipes were seperated and just dangling there. I slid them back together and plan to go and kindly ask nissan to put it back together and do it good this time. Has anyone else had this problem? I know it sure seems the 2k2's are having some QA problems. All 14k miles on my 2k1 were compltetly trouble free. Yay, I paid more to have a crappier car
