Hello all!
Has anyone had to replace right rear strut with air ride yet?
My car is in the shop now getting the right rear replaced.

I have the same car. Replaced the drivers side rear strut 8 months ago at about 38000 miles under warranty. It's about an $1800 job including labor according to the invoice. I believe it's common but your driving habits or the roads you drive may cause some to fail earlier......JMHO
