Cat-Converter Express by Premiere Services Provides Insurers with Easy-To-Use, End-to-End Catalytic Converter Theft Replacement Program
August 2, 2022 (Santa Fe Springs, Calif.) – Premiere Services, a leading national provider with more than 30 years of expertise in mobile aftermarket audio and infotainment systems replacement, and on-site wheel & tire replacement for insurance theft and vandalism claims, has originated Cat-Converter Express, the insurance industry’s first dedicated, white glove national program for catalytic converter theft repair and replacement.
With catalytic converter thefts up a startling 33 percent year over year in 2022, the insurance industry has become inundated with claims from individuals and commercial fleet operators.
“Catalytic converter thefts are an increasingly common story in the news these days. And while a thief can remove a catalytic converter and be gone in just over a minute, for the insurer, this is a nuisance claim that can require multiple hours over days or even weeks to resolve,” says Mark Puente, CEO of Premiere Services. “Our Cat-Converter Express program eliminates the hassle and gets these claims off the desks of busy adjusters by coordinating and streamlining the entire process for them.”

From claim submission to claim closing, Cat-Converter Express provides a fully managed resource that includes towing, estimating, quality control, repair, and delivery. In addition, the program’s singular focus has introduced many efficiencies to the servicing of catalytic converter claims.
Premiere Services maintains a 5-day cycle time, against an industry average of 18 days, which saves insurers on loss costs and helps drive policyholder satisfaction. Even with supply chain woes impacting cycle times across the auto repair industry, Premiere Services has been able to repair more than 98 percent of all vehicles they have managed through Cat-Converter Express due to their nationwide network of catalytic converter replacement facilities.

“We have managed thousands upon thousands of these claims since we launched Cat-Converter Express in August of 2021. No other insurance services provider in America understands or can execute as effectively on a catalytic converter theft claim like Premiere Services can,” says Chris Sestito, COO of Premiere Services. “Our top priority and promise are to get the customer back on the road safely and quickly.”
