    when to replace CX-9 rear shocks ??

    Starting to feel vibrations from the rear, tires are rotated and balanced but can still feel vibrations, could it be the rear shocks need to be replaced? car is at 60,000 miles and I notice some nose diving when braking like the rear is lifting off the ground.
