For the last two weeks I have been experiencing the Traitors trade war
I have car part on order for the Buick Encore (catalytic converter), that I own.
Got a check engine lite on and did a diagnostics that says that the converter is bad, (P0420), so..................I have been going on line to get the part, well the part is on a national back order, there is none in the United States, there are currently four on back order, I am on the list).
You might be asking why, well the part is made in China for GM, and the aftermarket part which I have on right now did not remove the check engine lite, even with O2 sensors replacement..............the ECM ( Electronic Control Module)
has the hard fault, even if you erase the ECM fault code. The platinum and palladium in the unit is not made to GM qualifications, and since this is a critically party to pass emissions, you need the OEM ( Original Equipment Manufacture part).
So, the traitors tariffs and his attack on a supplier, will now cause me the one in probably hundreds of people in the country, that need's to have the part's to pass emissions test for the state, and if I go in I get penalized and pay this asshole price to have his ego massaged .........................
So, this has been second rate traitor asshole wanna be runs around and goes to the "Volksgemeinschaft," while common citizens in the country that are trying to follow the emissions test laws, have been and are getting screwed, because the part has been on back order Nationally since May of this year when the urine hair colored asshole decided all by himself to create his deflection of his RUSSIAN TREASON and his involvement of a crime when he was involved in his campaign finance laws which is a felony ..................he really can go fuck himself....................and I hope his fucking trolls on this site can go and fuck themselves also.................I mean that literally....................fucking enabling traitors....................
= new reply since forum marked as read
Really is...
Pity of it is americuns will never get anything out of this 'war'...
Guess china is pissed with stumpys new tariffs against them...
Maybe you can find a usable part off a wrecked car? Depending on where you live, there might be a database of used parts that are available within, say 50 miles. I'd hope your GM dealer might be able to help with that.
Good luck!
from the salvage yards......................so...................I wait
and also put in Heet to get rid of the water in the tank. I put Heet in my gas tank about every 2500 to 3500 miles ......................very good practice, and if you live in cold climate it prevents the gas line from freezing.........................
problem is its all about the Platinum and Palladium and gold being sprayed on the inner liner and screen, and they don't put enough in the converter.........................check engine lite came back on after only 250 miles and did not make the eight day cycle to make the ECM happy...................
not the lower one but the upper one near the manifold.................................this is just a bummer. went to DallasGM parts and they had the best price nationally, and ordered the part expecting it be in Aug, then went shopping around , (after they told me it was on back order) then went to Wilmington-Salem, Michigan and all the way out to Oregon, and they all told me it is on back order nationally, and that GM has requested the part...........................and they sit and wait also.................this just plain sux's........................... .

'On the list.'
You should call your Congressperson and Senators and complain volubly. Sometimes they have staff that can help, and even if they can't, being confronted with your situation will be good for them. 
Who needs being invaded by any enemies when we have Trump to just give it away?
