🚗 Diagnosing Catalytic Converter Issues the Right Way At Accomplished Auto, we believe in fixing the root of the problem – not just the symptom. One of the most misunderstood parts of your car’s emissions system is the catalytic converter (or "cat" for short). It plays a critical role in cleaning up the exhaust gases before they exit your vehicle. But when a warning light pops up for something like a “catalyst efficiency” code (P0420 or P0430), it doesn’t always mean the catalytic converter itself has failed.

That’s why we take the time to test properly, not just replace parts. 🔍 Why a Prop ... read more

Navigating Warranties, Recalls, and Insurance Work at Accomplished Auto At Accomplished Auto, we often get asked a very common question: "Do you handle warranty work, recalls, or insurance claims?" The answer is both simple and complicated, so we wanted to take a moment to explain how it works. Manufacturer Warranties and Recalls If your vehicle is still covered under the factory warranty or you've received a recall notice, the work typically needs to be done at the dealer.

Before you make that sometimes lengthy appointment at the dealership, it's often a good idea to bring your vehicle to us first. We can diagnose the issue and determine whether it might be covered by a manufacturer recall, warranty, or even a technical service bulletin (TSB). TSBs are issued by manufacture ... read more
