The rear springs or the control arms and or bushings might be worn or broken. Have an alignment done on the vehicle to verify. Shocks and other suspension components should be replaced in pairs.

Some vehicles require a 4 wheel alignment, not just a front end alignment. Your service facility will be able to tell you if that's what you need. Hope that helps! Jim
