Description of the problem | Both front could springs broke at 45000 miles. No recall but clearly others have the same issue. Cost to replace was just under $500 as the struts were compromised when springs broke. There was not indication of when they broke and we were lucky our mechanic caught this malfunction before it caused more damage. |
