Your exhaust system does a lot more than just keep your vehicle’s noise down. It directs toxic exhaust gasses away from and behind the vehicle so that they can’t enter the passenger compartment, for starters, and it does a lot more than that. At Don Owen Tire in Bloomington, IL, we’re trained and qualified in muffler repair service. Whenever your vehicle is on a lift, even if it’s just for an oil change, our technicians will have a good look at the entire exhaust system and examine it for rust or damage.
Since the '70s, catalytic converters have been part of every vehicle’s exhaust system. The catalytic converter looks like a muffler, but it’s a separate part of the exhaust system. The catalytic converter usually lasts the life of the vehicle, but a failed unit can be enough to cause rough running conditions or even prevent the vehicle from running at all.
Are you noticing more noise from your vehicle than before? How about a vibration that can be felt through the seat back or floor, maybe only while idling with the transmission in gear? Vibration can be due to loose or broken exhaust pipe hangers and other pieces of hardware in the system. One thing is for sure…a failed muffler is a bigger problem than just having a noisy car. It can result in engine damage, poor fuel economy, poor performance, heightened emissions levels and other problems.
