Cold temperatures cause metal exhaust components to contract, making existing cracks, leaks, and loose parts more noticeable during winter months.

During colder weather, drivers often notice louder exhaust sounds, rattling, or vibrations that weren't present before. This doesn't mean the problem is new — winter simply makes existing wear easier to detect.

Moisture, road salt, and cold starts accelerate corrosion and stress exhaust hangers and joints. Addressing these concerns early helps prevent further damage and unexpected breakdowns.
