OP. I had mine fail at 12k and was covered under factory warranty. It was a sudden failure while driving 70 on the fwy. Imagine how that felt. The replacement failed again under 60k. It was a slow progressive csc failure this time and no longer covered under warranty at that point. Two failures within 60k. I ended up with an aftermarket set after that. You have coverage for 3 years/ 50k so you will be fine but will certainly experience another failure covered or not. The point many of us made was to go aftermarket with better performance while you had a chance. At $1690, you would have gotten a better product elsewhere. The silver lining is you'll get back on the road in your Z and it was half the price they quoted you.

Watch for steering lock, your differential bushing, and never make a sharp right turn with your tank low on gas.
