One Company Doing the Right Thing

Post by Number6 »

When someone or some company does something right, they should be recognized. In San Diego County, and I have no doubt around the country, catalytic convert thefts have skyrocketed. Midas is offering free etching and painting, during the month of July, of catalytic converts to help deter thefts.
Catalytic converter thefts continue to be a huge problem for car owners throughout San Diego County.

“These criminals know exactly where they’re located on every single vehicle, so like this particular Volvo, it’s pretty straight in the center,” said Nelson Diaz, regional sales manager for Midas, while standing under a Volvo on the lift at their La Mesa location. “It’s pretty easy if you think about it. One cut here, one cut here, this whole piece comes out. Super easy for someone to do with the right tools. One to two minutes max.”



For the entire month of July, which is National Vehicle Theft Prevention Month, Midas locations throughout the county will be offering free engraving and painting of your catalytic converter.

“Painting them, etching them with a license plate number does help reduce it. Of course, it’s not going to totally eliminate it, but if someone crawls underneath and they see that it’s painted, obviously that’s going to be a deterrent,” said Diaz. “They’re going to go on to the next one.”
