A carbon monoxide detection, warning, and mitigation assembly for a vehicle includes a control module, a plurality of bulbs, and a plurality of sensors. The control module is configured to couple to a vehicle and is operationally couplable to an electronic controller of the vehicle. The bulbs and the sensors are configured to couple to an interior surface of the vehicle and are operationally coupled to the control module. The sensors are configured to measure a carbon monoxide level in a passenger compartment of the vehicle and to communicate the carbon monoxide level to the control module. The control module is positioned to compel the bulbs to illuminate and the audio system to emit an audible alert to notify the occupants, and to lower the windows of the vehicle to ventilate the passenger compartment. The control module also is configured to compel the electronic controller to turn off the ignition.
