Regular maintenance is crucial to keep it functioning effectively. Whether it’s a simple repair or a full replacement, our specialists are equipped to ensure your muffler contributes to a cleaner, quieter, and more enjoyable driving experience.
The muffler is one specific piece of a vehicle’s exhaust system, and it’s responsible for reducing the noises of engine combustion and evacuation of exhaust gases. The whole exhaust system includes the engine’s exhaust valve, exhaust manifold, a series of pipes, at least one catalytic converter, the muffler, and the tailpipe.
How can you tell if you have a bad muffler or need other exhaust repairs? You may notice these signs:
Depending on your vehicle’s make and model and the types of conditions you typically drive in, a muffler lasts an average of 40,000-80,000 miles. If you enjoy spending your weekends parked on the beach, you can help mitigate dangerous corrosion by washing your vehicle’s undercarriage. Otherwise, you may need a new muffler even sooner than 40,000 miles.
At First Tire & Automotive, quality and customer satisfaction are paramount. That’s why we confidently back our services with a 36-month/36,000-mile warranty. Drive with peace of mind, knowing that we stand by our work and always aim to deliver the best for you and your vehicle.
