You know that your exhaust system helps keep your engine quiet, but did you know this system plays a critical role in keeping you and your passengers safe? The exhaust system moves exhaust away from your car using a catalytic converter, pipes and mufflers, oxygen sensors, and other components. The system has four central functions:
Some signs of an exhaust issue are obvious—for example, it is hard to ignore a loud noise coming from your tailpipe. You also might smell a rotten egg odor, which can signal an issue with the catalytic converter, the emissions control device that takes harmful gasses like carbon monoxide and alters them into less-harmful substances like carbon dioxide. If the catalytic converter—or any component—is not working properly, you, your family, and the environment are at risk. This is why we consider exhaust system services to be part of your regular vehicle maintenance.
Our technicians will begin by looking into any issues or concerns you have described about your exhaust system. As we do this, we will inspect every component of the system, from pipes and mufflers to the oxygen sensors and catalytic converter. Our technicians will be looking for any signs of a leak or blockage, contamination, or fuel control issue. We will make sure that your vehicle’s exhaust system is working properly and optimally to keep you and your family safe.
