Description of the problem	Rear passenger side spring coil was broken i don't know when. My mechanic saw it when she was replacing my breaks. Every person i spoke to about this said it had never happened to them, even with cars they basically ran into the ground, let alone a 5 year old car. Most of the complaints about 2014 foresters on nhtsa seemed to be about this same issue. I brought it to the dealer, since most garages didn't have the parts needed, and i was hoping that subaru would pay since they seemed to use shoddy steal on the springs that rusted prematurely. Subaru of wakefield in ma gave me the best deal of any in ma that i talked to, i pay for one side ($750 for wheel bearings, strut and coil) and subaru paid for the other. Make sure to mention all the complaints on nhsta that seemed to help me get this deal.
