The pre-formed shape supports proper routing in the exhaust system and is listed for Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ applications across multiple model years, including California emissions versions. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., DS7Z-5230-C) for the same application.

Common Repair Uses

  • Replacing a damaged or rusted exhaust pipe section
  • Restoring exhaust flow after corrosion at the factory pipe assembly
  • Servicing a welded OE exhaust system on a Ford Fusion or Lincoln MKZ
  • Addressing exhaust leaks caused by pipe deterioration
  • Repairing California emissions exhaust routing on supported vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s emissions configuration and exhaust layout before ordering. For 2013-2020 Lincoln MKZ applications, the OE system was a welded assembly and AP Exhaust notes that all parts identified [1] should be replaced. Confirm fitment against the existing exhaust routing and compare the original pipe shape to AP Exhaust 38040 before installation.

Quality Assurance

AP Exhaust supplies exhaust system replacement parts for service applications, and the Pre-Bent line focuses on formed components that match OE-style routing for listed vehicles. Part number 38040 is cataloged for direct fitment on the specified Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ applications.
