I had some problems with parts from Detroit Spring on Amazon with another car, those may have been fake, too. I will never buy suspension parts on Amazon again, I'll stick with a local store with a real person behind the counter.
Well if you're really seeing counterfeits from Amazon, that's a big deal! Wouldn't you want to notify the other victim, the legit manufacturer? Seems like they'd want to send a courier over and document the problem, and they should be very appreciative that you took the trouble.
