A few options:
-Dealer can replace the strut for 2300, 2 year warranty.
-The shop who installed the springs can replace for 1800, no warranty. They are suggesting to replace with coilover/strut as factory struts will not hold and leak again.
-Replace with kw v4 for 6500-7000
There does not appear to be an aftermarket strut option. I checked Bilstein but no love.
Any suggestions?

I had the same issue with my front passenger strut after 6k. Dealer denied warranty bc of the springs. I ended up finding a used one on forum from a member. I would search there and eBay.
