Exhaust Damage Repair
The emission and exhaust system starts at the engine of your car, truck or SUV and runs through exhaust pipes connected to your engine cylinders, to the oxygen sensors and the catalytic converter, and then to the muffler and to the tailpipe.
Since your emission and exhaust system is mounted to the bottom of your vehicle, it can be damaged by potholes and other bumps and debris in the road. Automobile exhaust contains carbon monoxide and other substances that can be very dangerous if they flow into the passenger area of your vehicle. It is a good idea to have your emission and exhaust system checked once a year to ensure it is functioning properly.

Exhaust and Muffler repair FAQ
Q: Why does my muffler and exhaust need to be serviced?
A: Your muffler and exhaust system is a necessary repair. As you continue to use your vehicle, you increase the risk of harmful fumes building up. Keeping up with your muffler & exhaust maintenance can also help improve gas mileage and fuel efficiency.
Q: My car is making a louder noise than usual. Is this common?
A: A louder noise emanating from your car is a precautionary sign that you have a leak/hole in your exhaust system. Regardless of power and performance settings of your vehicle, the louder noise is not necessarily beneficial to your car. Leaks can lead to carbon monoxide buildup, cause a decrease in fuel efficiency, and can lead to you using up more gas in the long run.
Q: How does my exhaust work?
A: Your exhaust system is designed to remove toxic fumes, cancel sound from the inside, and absorb the sound emanating from your engine. The piping from the engine to the rear of your vehicle is what carries the harmful fumes away from you. Meanwhile, your muffler is stationed at the rear to filter out the smog. Your muffler also is responsible for absorbing/suppressing the sounds coming from the engine thanks to the design and materials located inside it.
Q: Will an aftermarket system help me out?
A: While many aftermarket parts claim to significantly improve your horsepower, it is best to upgrade other areas of your vehicle. Aftermarket exhaust systems are a vast improvement over stock exhaust given their design, to allow more air flow in and out. While you may enjoy a better throttle response, it is key to keep in mind that many aftermarket exhausts only generate up to 5% additional horsepower.
