Shock/Strut Life Expectancy

Hi all,

I wanted to see if anybody on here has needed to replace suspension struts/shock absorbers yet. If so, what kind of driving do you typically do, when (miles) did you have to replace them, and how much did it cost? I'm curious since I can't seem to find anything online pertaining to the C450/C43 specifically that I deem reliable, so I'm going for anecdotal reports!

Thanks in advance.

Because they last pretty long time well beyond warranty period or right when warranty expires. Sadly, warranty is only 4 years and you will start to hear problems from c450 ownerd as most of them will start run out and more people will voice their opinions.

My 2019 C43 Coupe had both rear shocks leaking. The car has just over 10,000 miles on it. They were replaced under warranty last week.
