Following a parking lot accident with damage sustained to my right rear bumper requiring future bumper & right bumper extension replacement my vehicle will spin the right rear tire under moderate acceleration, on dry pavement, when making a right hand turn from a standing start. I've also noticed that the right rear body is approximately 1/2"-3/4" higher than the left rear as measured from the bottom of the wheel opening molding to the top of the wheel.

Any diagnosis would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Good observation, the frame is bent, keepin the wheel light on the ground thus allowing it to spin easily, , It could be the axle, but I cant see so IM not sure, but your right, its slightly bent

Have you noticed that it will spin with people in the back seat or something heavy in the rear?
