PO420 stock converter failure at 60K miles- is this normal?
Just got a PO420 on my 07 Sedan..
As I work for a company that makes converters, I understand that convertters typically dont fail on their own and they usually fail due to being contaminated by oil, gas, or antifreeze
Im a little concerned that the stock converters would fail this early in the cars life as I stick to the exact maintenance schedule on the car and dont track/ race it- most of the time its driven pretty easy
Anyone else have any experiences?
Thanks

I just took my 08 sedan in cuz i had a SES light and was coming up on my 60k. Service guy also tole me the my CATS were bad and replacing them. Makes me nervous with these cars. It seems like i have had my car in the shop a lot only for owning it for a year. Seat tracks replaced 2 times in 6 mo, sunroof, engine hoses, and much more. They did however give me a fully loaded m37x. really nice for $80k, but is this just a snap shot of the future of my car and how much its going to cost every 3 months? Not impressed at the moment.
