THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 BMW X3. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR SERVICE WHEN THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TWO REAR COIL SPRINGS WERE BROKEN. THE COST THEY QUOTED TO REPLACE THE COIL SPRINGS WAS $909 PLUS TAX. THE MILEAGE AT THE TIME THE BROKEN COIL SPRINGS WERE DISCOVERED WAS 29,706 MILES. THIS VEHICLE IS ALWAYS GARAGED AND RARELY DRIVEN IN BAD WEATHER. THE UNDERSIDE OF THE VEHICLE IS CLEAN AND HAS NO RUST.
