What is the warranty for a catalytic converter on a 2013 ford explorer? - 1

Call the local ford dealer with your vin number and they can tell you if its under warranty or not. Some vehicles have an 8 year or 80,000 mile emissions warranty thru the manufacture. All you can do is call and ask.

Here in Germany, it would be five years if it was a new car, and one year if you bought it used.

Except, forgive me that ancient joke, if it's a diesel.

The same as the warranty on the car.

None. What is the warranty for the gasoline the vehicle came with?

3year/36,000. So a 2013 year model Ford would be out of warranty.

READ the owner's manual that came with the car. It will tell you what the manufacturer's warranty covers.

In the US the catalytic converter is covered by an 8 year 80,000 mile Federal Emissions Warranty. It also covers the ECU and onboard diagnostic device or computer.

8/80 whichever comes first

8yr/80k mile Federally mandated.

READ the owner's manual that came with the car. It will tell you what the manufacturer's warranty covers.

  • Why do some companies like Ford have a 5year warranty and others like Hyundai have a 10year warranty? Does the company with the longer warranty trust in their product longer? Or they know that the owner will have to do a ton of repairs and without a back up no one would ever buy them?
  • Will a catalytic converter for a 6cyl 3.0 work on my 4 cyl 2.3? I own a 2004 Ford ranger with a 2.3L engine, but I wasn't able to find any catalytic converter for a good price, so I was wondering if a catalytic converter for a 3.0L would work fine on my car, since Catalytic converters for that engine are more widely available, thus cheaper. Btw I need the rear Catalytic converter, thanks
  • On a 2000 ford ranger, will driving it without a catalytic converter cause valve issues? My ford ranger has had the cat removed (not by me!) and it is causing an O2 sensor code, of course, and an overly rich exhaust and poor fuel milage. Now, I know it needs fixed and I will when I get the time to get it to a muffler shop, but my question is, will driving it for a little while right now cause any valve trouble or any damage elsewhere?
  • Do I need a catalytic converter? I have a 2000 Mustang Ford V6 3.8L I looked under the car and I did not see 1 catalytic converter, I saw some pictures supposedly I has 4? But mine just has 2 long pipes that just go from the engine to the mufflers and then exhaust pipe. It smells like gasoline when I start up the car. Will this damage anything?
