A problem more car owners have than know it is an exhaust leak. There are a few easy signs to look for to see if your exhaust system is in trouble. We here at Verner-Cadby Ford want to make sure that you are aware of signs to look for while driving in and around the Fairfield, NJ area.
When your car's engine is running, and there is either a hissing or popping sound emanating from the tailpipe, that is a warning sign. If while driving your steering wheel, your foot pads, or your chair are vibrating, that is a potential sign of a rusting tailpipe.
Most noticeable to drivers, if experiencing a noticeable loss of engine performance and increased fuel consumption, there is potentially an exhaust issue with your car. As your exhaust system struggles to operate efficiently, it can easily affect your car's fuel consumption, meaning you end up paying more in fuel and tax your engine.
