I HAVE 74K MILES ON MY CAR AND WAS WONDERING IF I SHOULD EXPECT THE SHOCKS TO NEED REPLACEMENT. THE CAR IS NOT A SMOOTH AS IT USED TO BE. I FEEL BUMPS MORE THAN WHEN I GOT IT.

    no. shocks are a wear item, like belts and brakes. they also will only replace the covered parts when they fail.
    "not as smooth" is not a failure.
