Whats my problem?

Lately my car has been very loose, it sway's like it has a flat yet my tires are inflated properly. Any ideas what I would need to check, change or fix?

Thanks for your help.

Did you get under it and look for anything abnormal?

Sway bar end link bushings are most likely worn out. Go to your local auto parts store and ask for four new sway bar end links bushing kits and replace them. I am almost positive that's your problem.


You could just get under your car and look at them as well. If you have never changed them out nor did anyone who owned the car before you and it's still on the stock end links there will most likely be no bushing left and you will just see the stock plastic bump stop type things where there should be a bushing.

I said to get four so you could just swap out front and rear, but you say it's only loose in the rear then you'll only need two... might as well just change them all out while you are at it though.
