OEM catalytic converters range from $1,000-$3,000+ depending on the vehicle. Aftermarket units can cost $500-$1,500. The high precious metal content (platinum, palladium, rhodium) drives the cost.
While the vehicle may still run, driving with an exhaust leak is dangerous due to carbon monoxide exposure and may cause you to fail emissions testing. It should be repaired promptly.
Mufflers in regions with harsh winters and heavy road salt typically last 5-8 years. In milder climates, stainless-steel mufflers can last the life of the vehicle.
Common causes include engine misfires (unburnt fuel overheating it), excessive oil consumption, coolant leaks into combustion, or simply age and high mileage. Fixing the root engine issue prevents repeat failure.
