Midas muffler of Santa Fe installed a catalytic converter improperly in my car. The subsequent damage was in excess of $800 all heat related.

They routed the exhaust back into the manifold, forcing oil to be blown out of the engine. On a hot summer's day the car frequently burst into flame.

Pep Boys eventually fixed it.

Midas offered me $67 for my trouble.

It's been over two years since the damage.
