The exhaust on your truck is an important series of components, that work together to insure smooth, reliable operation. At The Auto Clinic in El Paso, TX, we also know that exhaust systems are especially susceptible to damage and rust; pipes, mufflers, and other parts are exposed to hazards on the road, and to the environment. This situation, combined with caustic emissions and extreme heat, create a perfect opportunity for problems to arise.
