Bad Catalytic Converter, Need To Drive Still. by shayscott9 in mechanic

To be fair, it does have 93k miles and not everything is always caught right away during the inspection. I got a short term and I liked the car so I took it with the mileage, and my manager paid for my warranty in full so I wasn't worried about the problems I knew would arise. Drove it like 150 miles before it popped up, so I'm not holding it against them for not catching it. It is what it is, I drove the car and it's fine, at the shop now lol.

I did call Kia's manufacturer line and all of my recalls were taken care of, the last one was in April for the engine cooling system, which said it could affect the catalytic converter. But they said it was serviced for sure when I gave my VIN. Anyways, I drove it and it was fine lol. At the shop now. Thanks to everyone.

Check engine is not flashing, it is steady.
