Bad passenger side cat - GM just extended the stock cat warranty to 10 years/120K. If you didn't get the letter I've got a link here somewhere.

Up to you, the warranty fix is free. No emissions here, when I get around to LTs not going to bother with cats.

none. As long as it is original equipment they should take care of it.

It depends on the dealer, some are really picky and wont cover it if the cars modded, and theres a chance that the rear 02 senser is goin bad and reading slow and casuing the light to come on

Gentlemen, check your o2 Sensor first. Chances are it's the sensor that's failing. I'd go ahead and put a cat-less Y pipe on there, because eventually the cat will deteriorate and stop up. Just remove the cats and you won't have that problem.

Guys I just got all of my cats replaced under that warranty from GM. I brought it to my local GM dealer and they took care of me and sent the bill to GM afterwards. I was so happy.
