EXHAUST SYSTEM
Pump Up Your Car’s Power And Sound With A Well Functioning Exhaust System
The role of an exhaust system is to reduce noise and remove harmful fumes away from your car or truck. Keeping your exhaust and emission control system in good working condition is essential for fuel mileage, your safety, and the environment
Concern about automobiles’ effect on the environment is nothing new. All exhaust systems produce gases as emissions, one of which is carbon monoxide. These gases are dangerous to humans and harmful to our environment. Carbon monoxide is an odorless and colorless chemical that may leak from a malfunctioning exhaust system. If this chemical is breathed in it could cause serious damage to your health (exhaust gas is poisonous). Frequent inspection of your exhaust system is a must for your safety, as well as, the safety of your passengers.
What Are The Signs Of An Exhaust System Problem?
A car exhaust system is made up of several components that work together to reduce noise, limit emissions, and increase efficiency. The exhaust system is comprised mainly of an exhaust manifold, catalytic converter, muffler, and exhaust pipe. A well-maintained car exhaust system should last 2 to 3 years. Some common exhaust system problems include:
- A clogged muffler or catalytic converter
- Corrosion or rust
- Faulty oxygen sensor (resulting to a decrease in your gas mileage)
- Exhaust smoke and leaks
Generally speaking, car exhaust system problems are often a sign that something else in the vehicle isn’t functioning properly. However, it is still important to look out for these signs of car exhaust system problems.
- Gasoline smell
- Burning smell from the engine bay
- Engine misfires
- Excessive loud noises while driving
- The decrease in power or acceleration
- The decrease in fuel efficiency
- Hanging exhaust pipe
Time For An Emissions Test!
A loud vehicle could be a sign that it’s time for a brand new exhaust system or muffler. The emissions test is a great indicator of the overall exhaust system’s health. Do you hear an abnormally loud noise or sound coming from your car or truck? Then, get your exhaust system checked right away to avoid other problems.
At E1 Auto Care, our certified mechanics can handle any exhaust problems that are common among all major vehicle makes and models. You can expect us to provide a full line of exhaust solution options. It’s recommended to have your exhaust system inspected once a year. Routine maintenance will save you from having to replace the entire exhaust system. Don’t wait for an exhaust problem to develop into something worse (or else it will have a negative impact on your car’s performance and your wallet).
Ready to schedule? Before your next emissions inspection, contact us to arrange your exhaust system or muffler repair. You can also visit E1 Auto Care for an emissions test and care inspection today!

Anytime I need any kind of work done on my car or my wife’s car, I always go here. Adam and his team do an absolutely phenomenal job. I don’t even live near by but I always feel like I’m in good hands bringing my car here. They always give the best customer service. Keep me posted about everything. When I need to leave my car there a few days, I get a call everyday just so they can keep me updated on the progress. Even after everything is done and I picked up my car, I get a call later on in the day to make sure I’m satisfied. Like I said, the best customer service and best work. My car always runs like a champ after I pick it up from this shop.
E1 Auto is the most honest, hardworking mechanic shop that I’ve ever been to. Thank you guys for always providing excellent service!

Excellent Service!!! From the first phone call to the completion of work on my car. Chris was very helpful and so were all the guys working. They educated me on things I was unaware of about my vehicle and completed all work neatly, efficiently and for a reasonable price. I have finally found a great mechanic that I trust. Go check them out.

I cannot say enough good things about this shop. I do all my own work and don't trust other shops to touch my car. I had an electrical issue with my Pontiac that caused a no start condition and left me stranded. I brought it here and they spent a lot of time tracking it down and ultimately got it fixed(bad ignition harness). Andres, Ernest, and Chris were very patient with me and spent a lot of the time on the phone running through diagnostics. I can honeslty say I trust these guys and I will be taking my cars back here from now on if I ever have an issue I can't solve.
