These are not careless mistakes or mistakes caused by the informal setting. For the most part they are just flat out wrong and show how poorly educated we Americans are and how little pride we have in our language.

As far as I know, that is the correct usage of the word hear, which is what you do with an exhaust, you hear it, or listen to it. I guess you can see it too, touch it, even taste it if you really wanted to.
