I agree about the catalytic converter but check to see if the heat shield is still in place

It's normal, most passengers complain about every little thing imaginable. Look for a different passenger.




Might help if we knew what car you are talking about. How about the year and mods too.

Mos Def check the heat shield or the cat overheating. Especially if your running headers and a 3 inch exhaust. Ive personally never ever ever heard any of my passengers complain about heat from the floor. Unless they are sitting directly on the floor in the rear with no seats and the seat belt bolt gets heated up quite a bit Other than that check the shield and cat. Good Luck
