Description of the problem	I would like to bring to attention of nhtsa that my car's rear coil springs cracked due to rust. I came to know about it when i took the car for oil change at bridgewater nj bmw dealership. I got the part replaced by a certified independent mechanic as the dealer's quote was way high. I have the removed part if nhtsa want? S for analysis. I have done some online search on this issue and found it to be a common problem due to kind of paint and coating being used for the springs. I believe this is a quality of workmanship issue and should be addressed by a recall and request nhtsa to urge bmw na to look into this matter and take necessary steps to improve the quality of the component in question as it is a huge safety issue as well.
