Caution: Engine exhaust contains Carbon Monoxide (CO)
which cannot be seen or smelled. Exposure to CO can cause unconsciousness and even
death.
Exhaust may enter the vehicle if:
• | The vehicle idles in areas with poor ventilation (parking garages, tunnels,
deep snow that may block underbody airflow or tail pipes). |
• | The exhaust smells or sounds strange or different. |
• | The exhaust system leaks due to corrosion or damage. |
• | The vehicle’s exhaust system has been modified, damaged or improperly
repaired. |
• | There are holes or openings in the vehicle body from damage or after-market
modifications that are not completely sealed. |
If unusual fumes are detected or if it is suspected that exhaust is coming into
the vehicle:
• | Drive it only with the windows completely down. |
• | Have the vehicle repaired immediately. |
Never park the vehicle with the engine running in an enclosed area such as a
garage or a building that has no fresh air ventilation.
