The best way to keep carbon monoxide gas
from entering inside your vehicle is to have
the engine exhaust system properly serviced.
Have a competent mechanic inspect the com-
plete exhaust system and nearby body areas
for broken, damaged, deteriorated, or mispo-
sitioned parts if you notice any of the follow-
ing:
A change in the sound of the exhaust sys-
tem
The smell of exhaust fumes inside the
vehicle
The underside or rear of the vehicle is
damaged
Also check the exhaust system each time the
vehicle is raised for lubrication, oil changes,
or required service. Any open seams or loose
connections could let dangerous exhaust
fumes seep into the luggage compartment and
passenger compartments.
Check for holes or exhaust gas leaks
caused by corrosion or damage.
Check the joints and connections for
looseness or exhaust gas leaks.
Check the rubber hangers and brackets for
damage.
