My 99 300M had a problem with one of its front struts. Car has 40k miles on it. Not sure what happened but it was clear that it was not doing its job any more. Perhaps one pothole too many. Anyway, dealer planned on replacing both front struts under the extended warranty but after waiting 2 weeks for parts from Chrysler they could only dig up a replacement for the bad strut. The second strut is still at least a week or more away from showing up. The dealer decided to replace the bad one to see if the car could be drivable that way. In fact the dealer feels the new strut fixed the problem and is doing fine with the old strut and now feels there is no point in replacing the old "good" strut. I've always heard struts should be replaced in pairs but admittedly these Chrysler struts normally last one heck of a long time... probably longer than I will keep the car.
Assuming the car drives ok (haven't picked it up yet) should I let it go or should I insist on getting the second strut replaced. Thanks for your opinions on the issue.
