The first thing it says is this is not a recall, and don't automatically take the car in. It goes on to say that the failure rate on the left OR right catalytic converter is high, and they are extending the warranty on them. If you have already had them replaced, they have a reimbursement program.

Not sure if I should sent it back stating something like, "thanks, but the stock cats have been in a box in the garage since the car was about a year old. I will make you a great deal on them." (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Once, while consolidating several boxes of ammunition, I had to stop the cat from chewing on the lead bullets. Then I realized, if a cat had brain damage, how could you tell? Maybe you've answered the question; or, maybe not (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I had a bunch of .308 cases that were resized and primed and sitting in a tray on a box in the corner of my computer room. I then started to notice that they were migrating into my bedroom. I have a cat that likes to bring me tools and other items out of my computer room. He had started bringing me cases as "gifts". I decided that I had to move those to higher ground before he found the powder and bullets. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)
