MRC cost for replacement?

This is a feature I'm considering adding. Maintenance wise though how long do they usually last and what type of cost am I looking at for replacing.

The biggest cost is the price you pay upfront. To my understanding they actual magnetic units last for a long time, much longer than normal shocks. But to replace units if they go bad will run probably $450 per corner. I know Cadillac's and ZL1's use to be the $500-$600 range, but with these becoming a more common item, the price is coming down.

To bypass MRC and add it later, avoid it. Wiring the system that controls it and installing them are a nightmare.

There are several threads here about cost some shocks have gone bad from 40000 miles to 60000 miles, The shocks range from $510.00 a piece to $600.00. At a GM shop I guess it would be a $2800.00 to replace all four.

No, it's unrelated. Mine is lowered with no issues. Honestly, I wouldn't worry about replacement, that's what the warranty is for. The number of issues to units sold is low especially when you consider it's in the C7 as well.
