Rear drivers side shock stuck

[LandScar08]

Hi I have eibach pro kit on my 2020 gt2 and the drivers rear shock is clunking and had a shop look at it and say it seems stuck , has anyone had this happen or have any ideas what could be wrong because they said they didn’t know? Thanks in advance

doesn't surprise me a shock would fail especially with bad roads suspensions is a little tighter when it's lowered put a qualities set of shocks on it

OEM is the only option that I know of other than switching to coilovers.

Just got my rear shocks replaced under warranty the car is 5 years in December, i too am lowered on eibach springs. Diagnosis from Kia it was a faulty shock, must have had it for awhile. Try a warranty claim.

I wouldn't doubt if his dealer techs are so dumb they didnt even realize it was lowered. These KIA service centers are filled with techs that know nothing about the car.
