My car smells like exhaust fumes, it gets worse when the fans for the heater are on or if im parked with the engine running. Any ideas what it is and how to fix it?

Exhaust leak under / near the engine that gets sucked-in where the interior fan gets its air (under the windshield).

Have it looked at by a professional before you pass out / fall asleep behind the wheel from carbon monoxide poisoning.
