Don’t take a chance on the road, exhaust systems can be pretty finicky and if you’re in the wrong place at the wrong time, and it starts acting up, you could be in for a whole lot of unanticipated trouble. Let’s prevent those kinds of scenarios from happening on our roads! Check for these signs to indicate a problem with your vehicle’s exhaust system:
If you have to turn up the radio to tune out your muffler, it’s time to visit an exhaust repair professional. Loud noises from the exhaust are possible signs of an engine leak and exposure to harmful fumes.
Increased fuel consumption is always a sign that something is not right with your vehicle. Your engine must work harder when the exhaust malfunctions. When the engine works too hard have your exhaust system inspected before the problem gets worse.
A persistent vibration coming from the steering wheel or gas pedal may be an indication of loose or broken muffler parts and should be promptly checked.
Fumes due to an exhaust leak can be hazardous. If you detect a problem, visit our auto repair center immediately and call us right away.
