yes, no warranty. Honestly depends on how you drive and what roads you drive on. The absorber will fail accordingly. if everyday to and fro just highway roads chances are it will last longer then every day on inner roads with potholes kupronikel83 liked this post

My advice - go to another shop that will give warranty.

If buy aftermarket absorbers, actual fact no warranty. The warranty usually is provided by the mechanic or the seller itself, if anything happen it is paid by their own pocket. Thus why some mechanic or seller will mark up price higher to add in the warranty risk.

QUOTE(ilovestitch @ Jun 10 2025, 05:40 PM) You try go claim with them? My mechanic feedback to me a lot of times different manufacturer also say got warranty but when you bring the absorbers or parts go there and claim they will start to say this is wear & tear, owner or mechanic workmanship issues. Few times my mechanic have to pay using own pocket money for owner warranty parts and thus why nowadays most of them if want warranty will mark up higher to cover these risk. |

most manufacturers and distributors provide warranty in the aftermarket for absorbers. Its just that when it come to workshop it depends they want to provide it or not.
i think main reason of them not providing is because they cant charge you the labor cost and second is the claim back to supplier will take sometime. |
