2003 Pontiac Grand Am 6 cyl Wheel Drive Type unknown Automatic 126000 miles

I am so stressed out with this car and all of the repair shop visits. Okay here are my issues:

1. The Check Engine light stays on all the time.
2. Last night I noticed that when I used my signals, the signal sound continues once the turn has been made, but slows down and stops for a few seconds then starts ticking again.
3. Also last night and today the Service Vehicle Soon, Trac Off and ABS lights come on when I back up. If I turn off the car and turn it back on the lights are no longer on.

I had the car computer scanned at my local auto parts store and it says the catalyst system efficiency for bank 1 is below threshold.

Recent work (last 6-8 mos): Fuel Pump and Catalytic converter.

Please help. I can't keep throwing away 500-700 a pop to get my car back on the road.

first thing is to bring it back in and have the converter replaced again because its no good. and with the trac light, you will need to have a repair shop scan that to get that code, then we can give you some insight
