2012 Jeep Patriot

My 2012 jeep patriot 4wd 2.4l is around 106,000 miles. about 2 months ago, i was pumping gas and i noticed it was only pumping about 75 cents at a time before stopping. i thought it was a faulty pump but soon began to realize it happened everywhere! my check engine light also comes every now and then, warning me that the catalytic converter is faulty. so i found the recalls for both of these problems which include 2012 patriots, yet they say my car is not covered by the recall. seriously? the only recall that is covered for my car is 16v-668 which is the occupant restraint. why are the other problems that are popping up with everyone not covered?
