system and nearby body areas for
damaged, missing, or
mispositioned parts, open seams, holes, loose connections, or other
deterioration that could allow
exhaust fumes to seep into the

necessary corrections should be made immediately. For continuedsafety, exhaust system pipes and
resonators rearward of the muffler must be replaced whenever a new
muffler is installed.

gasket for correct sealing ability
and indications of physical
damage. Replace any damaged or
malfunctioning parts.

alternator, power steering pump,
and air conditioning compressor.
