Need new strut assembly

I went to the dealer to get maintenance done. They told me that I need "Replacement front strut assemblies" Cost $456. I don't know anything about suspension just wondering what my options are. Do I need to replace the shocks with the struts too? thanks

Yes. They are one piece, unless you get koni inserts that fit inside a stock strut.

Did they tell you why you need new ones? If I had to replace them I wouldnt go back to OEM. Instead I'd go with some Tokico's or another aftermarket product.
