Defect

The wire mesh used to secure the catalyst substrate inside the catalytic converter is made of an inappropriate material. During sustained high-speed driving, exhaust heat causes the wire mesh to oxidize and deteriorate, allowing the catalyst substrate to contact the converter case and generate abnormal noise. Continued use will wear down and degrade the catalyst substrate, causing exhaust emissions to exceed the regulated limit.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the catalytic converter with a corrected part.
