If your cats are getting too hot, that can cause them to fail prematurely...In all honesty, cats are suppossed to last the lifetime of the vehicle...If it failed, something else caused it to go bad...My guess would either be something with the secondary air, since that causes the cats to heat up quicker or your O2 sensors not switching properly...I really question if that cat is bad or that it might be something more simple like O2 sensors like stated in earlier posts...I'm curious to see how many Crossfire owners have had to replace their cats...I have a 99 Sebring Coupe with 240k and it has no problems passing emisions tests.
