Some Lexus RC F owners report experiencing issues with leaking rear struts following a front strut replacement. This problem may arise because struts are typically replaced in pairs for balanced performance and safety, and neglecting this can lead to further complications. Owners should be aware that struts and shocks generally need replacement between 50,000 and 100,000 miles, and if they are leaking or damaged, immediate action is recommended. The leaking rear struts could indicate a separate issue that requires further inspection to identify the root cause. Additionally, after any strut replacement, some owners find it necessary to visit a shop for wheel alignment to ensure proper handling and prevent uneven tire wear. It is advisable for owners to have both rear struts inspected and replaced if needed to maintain the overall performance and safety of their Lexus RC F, while also addressing any underlying issues causing the leakage.
