Default Are shocks/struts covered under warranty?

Bought my '14 350 f sport with 20k on it.

I installed Super Downs last weekend and the driver side shock looked like it had very slight leakage- but I had a couple of my buddies look and it doesn't seem blown; nor does it ride like it.

If is truly on the way out, the super downs will probably kill it soon. So my question is if it does blow and I put the OEM springs back on, will Lexus give me new shocks/struts?

Stock struts and lowering springs is never a good combination. You can try to put it back to stock. If it looks like it was modified, they won't cover it.

So in short, they are covered. Thanks for your concern
