My son backed into a small ditch and dislodged the muffler and exhaust pipe. No loud noises. no check engine lights, does this sound like a clamp was broken?

Hi there,

The exhaust is supported from the under body from rubber mounts , he may have broken one or more of these, you should be able to see if any are broken. If the exhaust is now louder there will damage some where as well.
