yeah, i'm about to take mine in for this to be done.
in about an hour!
the cat rattles a lot because of something loose inside, its super annoying. hopefully they'll just replace it with a new one.

I believe some 98-99 models where effected as well, worth a check with your local dealer....if not, I'd recommend a Magnaflow direct fit cat.

Hello,
I see a few things around the internet that the cats on this Jeep rust through and need replacing. I got a Jeep with this exact problem, the O˛ sensor has rusted around the connection and is no longer part of the cat.
However, I put the Jeep's VIN in and nothing comes up for a cat recall.
Is this something I can take to a shop and have them replace it under a recall?
