2 Rear Suspension Shock Absorber problem

Failure Date: 06/29/2017

When I have an oil change, the dealer (2 of them) notify me that I have a leak in my rear shock absorbers. I have replaced the passenger side twice and now they tell me my drivers side is leaking. The vehicle just went out of warranty, but there is a problem with the rear shocks. I have never experience a rear shock leak as long as I have owned a vehicle. Now, basically, every time I have an oil change and check, they inform me of a leakage.
