general problems of the 2008 Acura MDX

I have a Mdx with sport suspension. I recently visited my mechanic to discover that both of my rear shocks are blown. After looking into fixing it, I noticed that there are so many people experiencing the same issue prematurely. Not only is it a common issue with this vehicle trim, the parts are very expensive due to the electronic components. With so many people experiencing the same issue, it seems the core root of the problem may be a faulty design of the shocks. My concern is replacing a faulty products with another faulty products, and experiencing the same issue all over again shorty.

The ads sensor has gone bad on my 2008 Mdx. Some have been recalled in colorado because salt put on the roads for snow conditions has carried them. I live in utah where we also have salt put on slick roads. But none in utah were recalled. It is an expensive fix and parts are only available through Acura. My local mechanic told me that the price they are charging was rediculius and he has never seen such an expensive strut fix.
