The ride is not the same

Hey guys,
Can anyone relate to the loss in the smoothness and feel in the ride of ya car? It seems like my shocks are either shit or the bushings must be gone im not sure because when i go through a rough section of road i mean its not the worst ride, but its also not the tl i remember bringing home . So i called the dealer and asked is replacing the shocks somthing i should do like maitnance they tell me that they have never had to change any shocks even on the old legends unless there was like some physical accident or special kind of damage witch sounds like b.s. but why would he b.s. me my car is not even under warrenty so did anyone change the shocks on a non dropped car because of the ride? guys fill me in and excuse the run ons and grammer misatkes im on the graveyard shift!

Dude, i hvae the same problem. But i drive on mean streets of New York - so the car takes a beating... I was told by a local mechanic that the shocks are done... but i beg to differ because when you press on the car, it doesn't bounce back easily... so its something else... where are the bushings in the car????
