Rusty Muffler Hangers

[YAR1S]

Im guessing that these parts are the muffler handlers? I have never really looked under any of my cars (at least not the back part).

Today, I was installing those plugs that are commonly not installed pre-inspection before sale? It took me 30k miles to finally put them in....

anyways, I was down there and noticed a terrible rust problem with the muffler, The metal parts that hold the muffler and exhaust up to the body of the car have become very rusted and the rust seems to have begun to spread to the actual muffler. The rust isnt just surface rust either, I presume this because simply touching the metal results in the metal flaking off.

I saw that there was a previous post about the same problem, maybe other have the same problem but their post was deleted in the hack?

Here are some not so good pictures, damn flash!







Reckon I should take it into the shop under warranty??



ps: I was previously "BayouYari" but unfortunately I re-registered for that name and it didnt send me a confirmation email so then i requested for the password to be changed and then I tried to log in but it needed to be activated??? If a MOD reads this, I'd love to have my old name back ....
