Hello All,
For those of you with higher mileage 2016 and up CX-9's. When would you expect to replace your shocks\struts? So far we have 80,500 miles on our 2016 CX-9 and only had to do normal wear and tear maintenance. Last time we were getting serviced, I asked to look at our shocks and they show no leaks whatsoever. However, I do notice the CX-9 is not as stiff on turns and seems not as planted. Is there a certain mileage you would want to get the shocks replaced? Tires were replaced about 1 1/2 ago and there is no uneven wear on them like you would see with bad shocks. What's your thoughts on shock replacements and if you do need to replace them is OEM the only option?
