Front and Rear Quick Complete Struts Assembly Compatible

In this review the focus is on a pair of quick complete struts compatible with 2007-2012 Caliber and related FWD models. The bottom line: this kit is aimed at owners who need a straight swap that restores ride quality without a long shop job. The package arrives as a full assembly so the biggest reason to buy is convenience - springs, mounts, boots and hardware come together to replace worn struts and improve handling and comfort with a minimal installation process.

Key Features

• Vehicle compatibility: Built to fit 2007-2012 Caliber and 2007-2014 Compass and Patriot FWD models so buyers get a direct replacement for those platforms.
• Complete assembly: The kit includes struts, coil springs (if needed), mount, boot, bumper kit, spring seat, and isolator to eliminate the need to reuse old components.
• Safe & simple installation: Buckle holes correspond with existing ones in the vehicle, allowing replacement without disassembling the previous strut structure and reducing install time.
• Replacement numbers: Matches replacement part numbers 172367, 172368, 172401 so it aligns with common OEM references for these vehicles.
• Performance-oriented parts: Components are built to meet performance requirements which helps restore vehicle control and ride quality when original struts show wear.

Who It's For

This assembly is best for DIY mechanics and independent shops working on 2007-2012 Caliber or the 2007-2014 Compass and Patriot FWD models who want a near plug-and-play replacement that restores ride comfort and handling. It particularly suits owners noticing leaks, abnormal sounds, or dipping under load who prefer replacing the complete strut rather than rebuilding worn units.

Those who should look elsewhere include drivers who need long-term heavy-duty duty durability beyond typical passenger use or who require performance-tuned suspension; professional installation is recommended for safe fitment and alignment after replacement.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Cons

• Some customers report durability concerns with premature failure after a few weeks of use, so longevity can be variable.
