When something seems out of the ordinary with a vehicle’s operation, having the issue checked out makes sense. A car that loses power during acceleration may suffer from various problems, with an exhaust leak being one of them. Several other symptoms could indicate a leak in the exhaust system, a serious problem.
Reduced fuel economy increases the costs of owning a car. As with a loss of power, different problems may hurt fuel efficiency, and an exhaust system leak is one of them. An exhaust leak might result in a driver smelling gasoline fumes, a frightening situation.
Among the most apparent signs of an exhaust leak would be a hissing sound. The engine may also make a great deal of noise. Ultimately, an exhaust leak could lead to several problems occurring at once.
