They will replace it if it is within the 3year/36k mile warranty. But then you are stuck with stock crap shocks again. If you have the money, just upgrade to some better ones...Tokico, Bilstein, etc.

same thing happened to my left rear shock at about 9 or 10k miles...they replaced it under warrenty without any problems...then a month later i got some sportlines...so now they probably won't warrenty anything...now that i think about it the only warrenty i got left is probably interior stuff lol
