Catalytic Converter WARNING:


Catalytic Converters are emission control devices that are designed to last the life of the vehicle so you do not normally require replacement without cause. Furthermore a check engine light for catalytic efficiency does not by itself condemn a catalytic converter. Also you could have other parts that have failed and do not necessarily require a catalytic converter replacement. First of all check an oxygen sensor not functioning correctly.  Consequently your vehicle should be diagnosed properly before a catalytic converter is to be replaced. If you would like to schedule an appointment for a complete diagnosis click here.

What is the Warranty on a Replacement Catalytic Converter?

Federal EPA regulates a 2 year or 25,000 mile guarantee.
California CARB regulates a 5 year or 50,000 mile guarantee.
Factory replacement converters from the dealer have a 1 year or 12,000 miles. Most cars have a 8 year 80,000 mile warranty on the OE converter the vehicle came with.

How do I know that the catalytic converter I purchase is (CARB) California Air Resource Board approved?

First of all you can check with CARB on the approval for your car or truck by contacting the Helpline at 1-800-242-4450. You may also contact FMS for a quote or clicking this link to select your search https://ssl.arb.ca.gov/AftermarketParts/catalysts

My car has a PO420! Does that mean my converter is bad?

NO. The P0420 code, by definition reads “bank one Catalyst Efficiency low”.  A vehicle displaying this code is indicating that something is causing the converter to operate out of specification. FMS can perform a Catalytic Converter Pre-Test. The inspection is free with the purchase of needed components to correct the issue. Please make an appointment to drop the vehicle off for the complete inspection.
