Your vehicle’s exhaust system is more than just a tailpipe and a muffler. In fact, it is one of the most complex systems in your vehicle.
The manifold is attached to the vehicle’s engine. It collects exhaust from the cylinders and directs it into the exhaust pipe. Gaskets seal the connection of the manifold to the engine and to other joints. A cracked or loose manifold, or a leaking or damaged gasket can allow dangerous gases to enter the passenger compartment of a vehicle. One of these gases is carbon monoxide, which is colorless, odorless, and deadly. For this reason, it is important drivers keep their exhaust system in good repair.
