    We have had this issue on our 05. Perhaps the New England roads?

    Yes, had this issue a few years back @approx 150,000mi. Live in Upstate NY close to the Canadian border. It happens. Replace the shocks/springs on both sides. I order my OEM parts online and DIY when possible.

    I noticed both mine were broke last year, but close to the top of each spring - 2007 model with 60k miles.
