Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Uneventful failure of both rear coil springs while car was parked. the broken right rear coil spring was very close to inside wall of the tire. this was observed on june 9, 2006 during a routine tire rotation. a clamp was installed to stop the failed spring from moving closer to the tire. i am not comfortable with this temporary fix, however i can not afford to have the springs replaced either. |
