Should I drive with a crack exhaust? Mitsubishi/Dodge Eclipse `94, 1.8 lt..

An adjacent squirting coolant leak crack the exhaust. A two- inch line is seen on its right side duct. I don't know how long or when it cracked but notice the crack only when I remove the heat shield for cleaning. I can barely hear the sound of the exhaust leak. Anyhow, the car runs fine and strong except for a little overheating once in a while from a low coolant, yet to know why, but should I replace it right away?



Thanks


You should get this leak stopped immediately. Exhaust gases can enter the automobile and potentially lead to your death.

Where are you located, Tibur?

That's very logical. I'm located in the San Francisco Bay Area.
