Yep, just call or e-mail them for a free replacement.

Yes. I just did this two days ago. I heard one guy who put a block of
wood somewhere inside of his to keep it from breaking again.

If you are talking about the T1, yes. Call Thrustmaster, tell 'em what
happened. They will send you some more springs. Drill out the pop
rivets holding the pedals together, change the spring, then sheetmetal
***it back together again. You might want to put a spacer such as a
piece of wood behind the pedals to limit their travel. Not only does
it protect the springs, it makes it easier on your ankles (IMHO).
Don't forget to re-calibrate if you put in the spacer.

The good news is that KBOLIN posted a fix which involved putting
springs infront fo the pedal to help support the thrustmaster
springs... I tried this and so far.... no problems! If anyone is
interested in this file (with diagrams).. check out the file section
of my web page.
