Monroe Quick Struts Recall FYI

Post by marsmusclecars »

Hi Everyone.

I installed Monroe Quick Struts a few years ago and was never satisfied with the ride quality or ride height.

As such, I recently contacted Monroe's warranty department which informed me that they've taken the product off the market (due to the aforementioned issues) and opened a claim for me. From this, they asked me for all of my receipts, etc... and will reimburse me for the parts/labor and anything else related to their poor product.

Good Luck!
