Gent's,
I had a call from my wife yesterday after work. She work's in the downtown core and park's in a parking garage for the goverment building she works in. She started her van and it was loud as hell. So I get a call to check it out. It appears the catalytic converter was removed with a battery powered sawsall. We report it to the parking security and it appears her's was the fourth one that day. We take it to Speedy and they check to see if any are available, on back order 3-4 days wait. The local GM dealer appears to have lost 30 converters off of cars on the lot in one night. The word is that they get around $180.00 for the larger converter for the precious metals(platinum). Just thought I would let you know because if it's happening here, it will be going on in other places.
