Jiffy Lube offering free catalytic converter identification in Indiana

In an effort to combat catalytic converter thefts across the state, Jiffy Lube is offering free catalytic converter identification services to customers in Indiana.

Through the company's Catalytic Converter Initiative, customers can visit a Jiffy Lube store and have a technician engrave the last eight digits of the vehicle's VIN on the catalytic converter and add a stripe of high-temp paint on it.

These methods give an added layer of protection to a vehicle, according to the company. The service is complimentary with no purchase necessary.

“As a locally owned business, Jiffy Lube of Indiana is committed to serving its communities across the Hoosier state,” said Steve Sanner, President and Owner of Jiffy Lube of Indiana. “We’ve connected with law enforcement around Indiana to better understand the need, and we feel this is a great opportunity for us to help address a growing, ongoing problem in Indiana and across the country.

Customers can take advantage of the opportunity now. The service is in effect indefinitely.
