problem #2

2008Sep 02

Grand Prix GT 3.8L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 86,000 miles

I had to replace the catalytic converter and I know a lot of people with cars that have twice as many miles and they have not had to replace the catalytic converter yet. It is a very expensive repair. I heard Toyota has a 7 year warranty on at least some of their converters.
