There's knocking loudly and muffler sounds loud as I'm driving and the catalytic converter sounds like something is loose inside of it.

2020 GMC JIMMY? This happens when the catalytic converter is hot and then water gets slashed in it which breaks apart the honeycomb inside the converter. This means it will need to be replaced, here is the new catalytic converter on amazon for $135.00 I believe.

Please double check the model so I can give you instructions on how to replace it.
