Muffler leak?

I notice things. I was looking at my car from behind and noticed that there is a dry black streak on the muffler where the exhaust pipes are welded on. The streak is coming from a side of the right exhaust pipe welding. I suspect there is a hole in the welded area. I should call the service department and get it welded, right?

Muffler leak 2

Hey guys I just noticed this too, mine has a leak on the left side where the weld is not all around the pipe is leaking.

I took a picture so you guys know what I m talking about.

I showed to the dealer about this n they are tellling me that they need to look at it, and If it has a leak they will replace with a new ones.

They asked me if the car was in a accident or I hit something and I said no.

Yesterday I was following other fellow with the same leak mark so check yours too and get it fixed before the warranty is over.

2010 MSC stick, with 19000 miles, I bought the car new with 10 miles on it.
