A catalytic converter is not a reliability issue. Keep driving it and don’t worry about it. If your state has inspections worry about it then, in many states you can have a small muffler shop weld on a new converter for 200-300.

Again, dont rush into a poor financial decision because a a new car dealership is trying to convince you your car is garbage. Never take a old car to dealership for repairs, period.

Is there anything I need to worry about with this type of issue?

Nope. Your exhaust will likely fail emissions inspection and your car might start getting louder. You can wrap the exhaust and converter if it starts getting too loud, but this doesn't affect your cars performance at all.
