Default Borla - anyone tested the warranty?

I've had my Borla catback/adjustable exhaust for about 4 years. While I like it, it is starting to age on me, one of the pipes is cracking underneath and overall getting less than perfect. Its not the weather or salt/sand either, I lived in Memphis, TN and now Austin, TX.

They sell these things with a million mile warranty - has anyone ever tried to put a claim in and get an exchange/refund?

Over at JeepsUnlimited.com many people have trouble with the Borla 4.0 I6 header cracking and Borla always seems to replace the headers free of charge. So they stay pretty true to their warranty. BTW does Borla make a replacement muffler for our Fbodies?
