If I owned one of these cars, I would bring it in just to cost them money. FCA can go to [censored]. Sell the Jeep and Dodge divisions and garbage the rest.

May not have a choice in a CARB compliance state?
I guarantee that the Catalyst Efficiency threshold will be changed in the PCM calibration.....Hence the reason for replacing the Catalyst.
Will these new catalyst be covered for 80,000/8 years like a new car?....I doubt it.
How much will they cost a owner out-of-pocket compared to the catalyst that's already on the car?....What's to stop FCA from inflating the retail cost 200%?
Nothing is FREE!

VNTS must be different for you down south on what is allowed. Here they are changing catalytic converters as my mum had to schedule an appointment and parts needed to be ordered.
