Yea, already had them replaced though. I got the first letter saying I’d be scheduled soon, but if I had a failure to go in. They replaced all 8 for free, no questions asked.

If you had receipts, you could get reimbursed. [Audicoilpacks.com](http://Audicoilpacks.com) or whatever has all of the info.
