Car listed above Limited model has ran smooth for about three days. On the way home off the interstate hit a chuck hole all of a sudden the car shut off don't know if it was the chuckle or not the caused it. Thought it was the catalytic converter. Replaced it it runs okay but rattling up front when I first start the car or rev it up and I noticed on my gauges that my battery voltage varies not consistent like before.

Hello,

It sounds to me like you might of broken a mount for something under there. I would check my engine compartment thoroughly and you should be able to find it. I have included a link below for you to go to. I have also included in the diagrams below a worksheet that the mechanics would use in a shop to help run down your problem. Please go through them and let us know what you find out. We can go from there.
