My 19 alpha lost 4 springs which caused my can to move back and press against my oil tank and melt the oil lines. Luckily we were on the trail and headed back to the parking lot when it went. Glad I had warranty too because it was about $2500 to fix

This happened on my 19 too...WTH! Never happened on my three suk proclimbs.
My 18 broke on both sides, just bend the plate and put a fender washer on and it's been good since .
19 has a good cover but lost one exhaust spring. One half was under the brake rotor for a few hundred miles before i found it.

Not that uncommon. I’ve broken a couple on my 2012 over 5K mi. At least one on my 2016 with a couple thousand mi and one on my 2018 so far. I keep a couple spare in my pack up kit. It’s a bit of annoyance, but at least we don’t have to refresh the motors each season like another brand.
