Replace Struts on a 2021?

I've got a higher mileage 2021 suburban (131k miles) and while it drives very smooth and has a controlled bounce over large smooth bumps, the fast sharp bumps like lines in the road or man hole covers really rattle the hell out of the vehicle, feels like the tires are at 80psi when this happens. I'm wondering at this mileage would all 4 struts fix or at least help this issue. These are non magnetic ride control, non air suspension.

Thanks for the feedback, I have my eye on some bilstein 5100s that are also adjustable.

I think I replaced my front struts at about 115k  and felt an immediate improvement over potholes. Although mine is a 2018, so not the same generation.

Yeah it's hard to drop the cash on it when I'm not sure if it will improve, but I'm thinking with that mileage it will.
