Default Broken Shock

Well, was looking under the truck the other day and noticed a fluid leak from the left front shock. Had it in to the dealer today and had to order a new one. So i guess you all need to take a look at yours before the 3/36,000 warranty is up.

Same with brakes, our Avenger got into a curb over the winter year before last and well the control arm, axle and a bunch of seals and stuff but they didn't change the rotor. We had to go back for a vibration the car had around 10000k so they changed the rotor on one side only being the low mileage I accepted that but I could not believe they were putting the same brake pads back on, and this was on my dime. Idiots. My point is, as shocks should be changed all 4 at once you can get away with just front or just rear but not just one like someone else said. Brakes also should be done both front both rear or all 4 wheels.
