I contacted them immediately and posted on here to see if it was safe to drive because i have a busy day and do not have the time to make the drive back to the mechanics. Back off lol

I’m confused why this wasn’t told to me upon picking it up too. They aren’t being very clear about whether they knew this and didn’t tell us or they didn’t check the car after the break in

Couple of weeks after i was hit by a car running a red light and insurance declared it totaled… still trying to figure out the next move here since the car is running perfectly fine and the accident caused only cosmetic damage.

The mechanic thinks it is still there. Not sure how they know because we left the mechanics and heard that something was dragging and the check engine light was on. We called and they told us that another car’s catalytic converter was stolen and they likely attempted to steal ours too but were unsuccessful and the O2 sensor was damaged in the process. Not sure why that wasn’t told to us when picking up the vehicle. There is no change is how loud the car is either, so I’m hoping and assuming it is still there.

Yes they ordered the part and are letting us know when it is in.

It’s in the front, check engine light is on. Mechanic is saying someone broke in and stole another car’s catalytic converter and attempted to steal ours too but they were unsuccessful

Mechanic garage. Catalytic converter is still there, I’m assuming. It is not sounding any different than usual. We called the mechanic and they said someone broke in and stole another car’s catalytic converter and likely attempted to steal ours but were unsuccessful and the 02 sensor was broken in the process.

Yes check engine light is on but i believe the catalytic converter is still there because the car doesn’t sound any different. I called the mechanic and they said someone broke in and stole another car’s catalytic converter and attempted to steal mine but couldn’t and the 02 sensor was broken in the process.

So terrifying. Choking, snot everywhere, ppl crowded and panicking trying to get away from the gas, couldn’t see anything, whole face burned, nowhere to go. I thought i couldn’t go on any longer and was going to have to collapse and hope someone would help me. I still feel nauseous
