CATALYTIC CONVERTER THEFT PREVENTION
You have probably heard or seen on the news the number of catalytic converter thefts going on in Colorado. Catalytic converters are being stolen in record numbers for the precious metals (platinum, palladium and rhodium) that are valuable to recyclers.
Here are some ideas of things you can do to help protect your catalytic converter from getting stolen.
Park in a locked garage.
If you don't have a garage, park under a light or in a well-lit area. Lots of light will make it less likely a thief will attempt to steal your catalytic converter.
Install multiple security cameras that are focused on your parked vehicle.
Catalytic converter locks are available that can deter thieves.
Install a catalytic converter alarm. These high pitch alarms will alert you and others if someone is trying to steal your converter.
If you see someone crawl under a car, be vigilant.
Unfortunately, Jeno’s is not equipped to install any catalytic converter prevention. Please visit your local exhaust shop.
