Since the dealer doesn’t show the that the spring TSB was ever performed and your build date is just inside the cutoff date, I would say with a high degree of confidence that your car has the original springs.

As long as your happy with your car’s stance, I wouldn’t get too worked up about updating the springs. It only drops the ride height about 1/2 inch. And if your bumper to bumper warranty is up, replacing the springs will be on your dime.

Yeah hawk, I measured the front and rear of the car and the front measures from ground to bottom of fender 27 1/2 inches and the rear about 27 1/4 so I’m thinking the original owner must have had lowering springs put on it.

From the measurements, it sure appears that the updated springs have been installed. I’m just a bit perplexed why the system isn’t showing that the TSB has been performed.

My 17 was manufactured on 3-Apr-17. I had the wrong springs installed and had to have the dealer apply the TSB. They did the front sway bar link replacement at the same time.

Yes I know hawk, it’s strange because the other TSBs were done and on record!
