I own a transmission shop in Raleigh NC, Wednesday night some asshole decided to steal catalytic converters off of the cars in the lot(bringing around a $75-100 in scrap yards)
usually they are looking for stereo systems so we keep those cars inside. how do you prevent them from stealing exhaust.Anyway,in their pillaging of our hard work they decided to steal my wifes sirius radio also(destroying her dashboard in the process). This moprning she decides to call and cancel her radio and were going to cancel mine also,leaving just 1 of the3 active. Sirius said they were sorry for our loss and they couldn't have us with no sirius. They said they would send us 3 brand new units with car install kits,free of charge,and they are also going to cover the shipping.
In these times it is almost unheard of for a company to give customer service a good name. My hats off to sirius,and i guess there are still some big companies that care.

wow...that is incredible. I live in WA, and they just did an piece on the news about people stealing Catalytic converters...that would piss me off to no end. I think insurance companies should cover that kind of thing...vandalizing is just that...ya know?

That's a lot of effort to steal catalytic converters. I forgot where you live though.......in Raleigh....not exactly a crime free city. :) MJ

I had a customer at my shop that had his CAT cut half off.. He was parked at a train station and they hit like 30 cars.. Plus I seen on the news a New Ford dealership got hit 40 to 50 SUV's.. The penalty for the salvage yard is like almost nothing for buying stolen Cats.. I have a guy I sell to he pays me in cash last week I sold over 100 of them.. The price of junk cars is unreal I pay 300$ for a junk car.. Sorry to hear about your problem Transman I know how it feels about 5 years ago I had someone smash windsheilds on my lot cost me more then I needed to spend
