There’s a silent killer in your automobile. It can strike without warning, making you sick or, if ignored long enough, even take your life. It’s your car’s exhaust system.

Wait, silent? When an exhaust system leaks, don’t they make a lot of noise?

They used to, but today nearly every exhaust system on the road has a catalytic converter. And those converters reduce noise a lot, even before the exhaust reaches the muffler. So your car could be leaking exhaust gasses without you even realizing it.

Those exhaust gasses include carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and oxides of nitrogen. Each of those gasses can make you sick… or worse. And today they can be leaking out under your car without you even noticing it… until it’s too late.

That’s a great reason why you should bring your car to our Columbia, SC Cottman center for all your service and maintenance requirements.
