I just got a recall notice for the cats on my 2000 SS 3 days ago. Not too worried about it though b/c I'll be buying LTs and a ORY soon.

I got the letter - it's not technically a recall. They will replace only faulty cats, and will reimburse you if you replaced them yourself and have the reciepts. They will not replace cats that are still working properly. Kindof a "bring it in when it's broke" kinda deal.

you can get them replaced w/o gm anyway under the federal emissions act. i believe its 8 years and 80,000 miles for any car.

You know, the very first BOLD and UNDERLINED sentence in the letter says "THIS IS NOT A RECALL." Just funny how you called it a "recall".
