Some States require Vehicle Inspections, Safety Inspections, and Emissions Testing on their exhaust systems
When it comes to passing local and state inspections, we are proud of our track record for helping our clients meet safety and emissions regulations. These tests are a necessity, and they require the skills of an expert technician.
Your Emission & Exhaust System:
The emission and exhaust system is vast. It begins with the engine of your vehicle and ends at the tailpipe. This system incorporates and connects various car parts:
- Exhaust pipes
- Exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valves and sensors
- Engine cylinders
- Oxygen sensors
- Catalytic converter
- Muffler
- Resonator
- Tailpipe
Exhaust system dangers:
A pothole or other rough road conditions can hurt your emission and exhaust system. Another problem can be the exhaust gas. It is made up of carbon monoxide and other substances that can be harmful if they are flowing into the passenger compartment.
Exhaust system problem can show up as noises like a steady roar, rattling, hissing, or metallic vibrations, or colored smoke from the tailpipe. If this occurs, have your vehicle inspected as soon as possible.
To be safe, check your emission and exhaust system around once a year and remember the lifetime warranty we offer on all mufflers.
