Default Is it common for Eibach springs to break?

I have a set of Eibach Pro-kit springs on my Dodge Durango. While swapping out a set of wheels yesterday, I discovered my left rear spring was broken. The left side of the vehicle is about half an inch lower than the right. I just assumed it was because of the case tank. Nonetheless, I ordered new springs since I can't afford to swap these out to send back to Eibach. I purchased the vehicle with them installed, so I don't have the stock springs anyways.

Just wondering if anyone as ever heard of this happening? As soon as I get them taken out, I'll be sure to post some pictures of the springs. They are a little bit rusted too from the winters here in Pennsylvania.

Was also wondering how long I should expect to have to wait for them to settle.

Thanks guys!

It may have had a hard impact or 2 or 3 that cracked it and it ended up breaking. Cant say ive heard alot of this sorta breakage but it does happen from time to time..

Interested in seeing the pics

I've never abused my vehicle, so I don't know how they could have broken.

Here's a picture!
