Brake Spring Failure
So I just had to take my crossfire to the doc(dealership) for a broken brake spring in the right rear. I was curious as to see if anyone has heard of/had this problem before?
I am having it fixed under warranty, but am curious if this is a common problem or if I am having a unique problem.

do a search on "spacers". I wrote up a little guide that I hope has helped a few folks. I learned before breaking anything. The lugs can only protrude a certain distance from the inside of the spacers, and woe be unto he that doesn't observe this rule!
