description: THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WAS CHANGED ON TUES., JULY 30, 2019 AS THE RESULT OF A RECALL NOTICE FROM CHRYSLER. WAS TOLD AFTER THE REPLACEMENT WAS DONE THAT I WOULD SMELL BURNING A LITTLE FOR ABOUT A WEEK UNTIL THE NEW CONVERTER WAS BROKEN IN. I DID SMELL THIS WHILE DRIVING. IT WAS DRIVEN THE FOLLOWING DAY FOR A TOTAL OF APPROX. 80 MILES. MY LUNGS WERE AFFECTED BADLY. BROUGHT IT BACK IN TO THE SHOP (CHRYSLER CERTIFIED) NEXT DAY, BUT NO PROBLEMS FOUND. DROVE IT ONE MORE DAY, BUT THE PAIN IN MY LUNGS INCREASED. SINCE THEN, HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE CAR. WAS DIAGNOSED BY A DOCTOR WITH ASTHMA AND PUT ON A STEROID INHALER. NEVER HAD LUNG PROBLEMS PREVIOUSLY. CHEST X-RAY AND PULMONARY TESTS NORMAL. CHRYSLER WANTS ME TO BRING IT TO ANOTHER CERTIFIED SHOP FOR REVIEW, BUT IT IS FAR AND WOULD REQUIRE TOWING. SINCE THEN HAVING A LOT OF PAIN IN MY LUNGS 3 WEEKS LATER. I BELIEVE IT IS BECAUSE OF THE NEW CATALYTIC CONVERTER.
