Are your hips shooting up first? are u leaning forward too much? Not keeping a neutral spine (ie. not arching or arching too much)?
Film yourself squatting your working sets next time *back & side view* so we can get a better idea how your squats look like. Just like fcukedd said deactivation of glutes can be one of the reasons. Perform glute bridges to have an idea if it is that case. You should feel all the stress on glutes and minimal lower back if at all.
