2 Of My Air Shocks Went Out Within 2 Weeks :(

At 73K miles now it's probablly about time I guess. Driver's side rear went first then on Thursday my passenger's side front went out next.

Getting towed twice in 2 weeks is a bit of a pain...but I love my extended warranty, they're covering everything. I have about 20K left on the warranty so I hope the other two go out soon!

The dealer also gave me a brand new 2012 C250 (less than 1.2K miles on it) at no cost so that was pretty cool. NEVER buy an AMG without an extended warranty. I'm going to be hitting $20K of repairs that the warranty has covered and I only paied $2K for the warranty. They've never denied a claim to boot!

That's exactly how mine went. 1st front right. Two weeks later front left. Three weeks later rear left. Then I didn't wait for the last one. I just had the rear replaced at once. Warranty covered all.

Yep 2 down and 2 more to go! The dealer said they couldn't replace them in advance but maybe I'll ask for this again after I get her back. It sucks having to get towed/stranded when they go down. Still, better now then after my warranty expires.
