This is NOT an endorsement for Bilstein shock absorbers. I
noted, however, some concern about Bilstein's warranty
service.
I have found them to satisfactorily comply with the terms of
their warranty contract. I have had to replace two shock
absorbers in the almost twenty years since I installed them.
I replaced those two when they began to drip hydraulic fluid
on the garage floor. I replaced the first one in May '03 and
the second in Feb.'10. Bilstein readily complied with my
request for a replacement shock absorber on both occasions..
Here is the contact at Bilstein for warranty service:

ThyssenKrupp Bilstein of America

The warranty contract provides for the customer to pay the
shipping charge to return the defective shock to Bilstein
(about $10 from Zip 75703 to 92064 in Feb.'10). Bilstein
pays the return shipping charge.
