Скачать или смотреть Catalytic Converter Illegal

Catalytic converter theft is a costly and frustrating reality for car owners, fueled by the high value of precious metals like platinum, palladium, and rhodium hiding under your car. Despite strict federal laws and big fines—up to $25,000—for tampering or removing converters, black market sales and shady “fixes” are everywhere. Insurance doesn’t always cover the massive replacement cost, and illegal mods can leave your car failing emissions, stranded without valid registration.

In this video, we break down why thieves target catalytic converters, the risks of handy-sounding “solutions,” and the harsh penalties for getting caught. Plus, learn practical tips—like etching your license plate on your converter or installing anti-theft cages—that might save you major headaches down the line.

Bottom line? Don’t mess with your catalytic converter. Better safe, than sorry (and broke).
