Subject: | Insurance Coverage for Catalytic Converters |
Catalytic converters are vital parts of motor vehicles as they convert dangerous pollutants into harmless gasses. Unfortunately, the metals that make up these converters, including platinum and rhodium, are extremely valuable and make the converters ripe targets for thieves. Instances of catalytic converters being stolen quadrupled nationwide from 2019-2021. My bill will require insurers to cover the replacement or repair of a lost or damaged catalytic converter. This is important so that victims of these crimes do not have the additional stress of needing to pay out of pocket to replace the converter if their insurance does not cover it. Please join me in co-sponsoring this important legislation to help crime victims. |
