I got home from work and smelled like a burning plastic like smell... i looked around the car, then it hit me that it could be a bag under my car. sure enough about three quaters of the way down my exhaust there it was. i got off as much as i could a couple of hours later, because it was hot, with some plyers by just reaching my arm underneath as long as i could, ya i have long arms. there are still some pieces on there, none bigger than a penny, will they just eventually burn off? this has never happened to me before.

 

yes, it'll burn to a point where it'll stop smoking and smelling. However, it will leave a nice black, cruddy area on the exhaust.

 

it doesnt smoke, it just smells

 

it will eventually burn off. i however would jack it up and scrap it all off myself.

 

Happens every couple months to mine , seems to last 3 to 4 days

 

i didnt even see the bag that i ran over

 

I had one so bad underneath that it took forever to burn off. Even after I removed all I could.

Now I avoid plastic bags like crazy haha

 

shoot, my mom caught one on her brakes. that took some work for me to get untangled, and such. a big melted knot.

 

i dodge them as if it was a cow in the middle of the road.

 

I am so glad I'm not the only one. People think I'm strange haha

 

That made me lol.. Thanks!

 

It will smell for some time, go to the dreded car wash, and have them power wash the underside, or try and do it yourself
