Default 2014 Equinox AWD 4 cyl Loud exhaust noise when cold starting

I noticed on my 2014 Equinox 4 cyl AWD with about 75000 miles on it, that doing a cold start after sitting overnight, it sounds like a loud exhaust leak under the hood. It goes away after a few minutes and will not repeat all day after that initial start. Also, this seems to be getting louder, as the mileage increases. It will only do this after a overnight or prolonged parking. Any ideas or solutions for a fix??

You probably have a cracked exhaust manifold. It's a common problem.
