Common Exhaust System Issues in Trucks
Trucks often face exhaust system issues, including rust, corrosion, and damaged components. Rust can weaken the system, while corrosion can lead to holes and leaks. Timely inspections and expert repairs are essential to address these issues.
Can I Drive With a Bad Exhaust?
While driving with a damaged exhaust may be technically possible, it’s neither safe nor legal. A broken exhaust poses safety risks, including the potential for harmful fumes to enter the cabin. From a legal standpoint, driving with a compromised exhaust system violates regulations. Whether it’s a cracked, partially hanging, or completely fallen exhaust, immediate attention and professional repairs are crucial.
