If you think your exhaust system is damaged, then you should take your vehicle to an auto repair shop as soon as possible. Your exhaust system is responsible for routing gas fumes out of your engine and into the air, keeping your passengers safe and your vehicle running in tip-top condition.

To help you detect the problem, the experts at United Auto Parts in Kahului, HI, provide you with these common signs that you need exhaust system repair:

• Noisy Engine: While some engines are louder than others, you should always consult a mechanic if you've noticed a drastic increase in noises coming from under the hood. This could be an indication that there is a leak, putting you and your family at risk of inhaling toxic fumes.

• Decrease In Efficiency: When you're stopping at the gas station more often than usual, this is a sure-fire sign that your exhaust system isn't working properly. Chances are, you've got a leak in the pipes, causing your engine to operate at a higher temperature, thus increasing its needs for fuel.
