I drive qlot and it cannot be helped. I just bought this car havent even made the first payment and while driving I discovered what I woiuld call fish tailing. When I am going straight the car rides great, when the road curves the back end of my car goes haywire. It seems to bounce from left to right but when the curve stops the car is fine again. What could be wrong?

Hi there,

This sounds like you have faulty rear suspension struts, with the action you are describing, this is constant with soft or failing suspension struts, have the inspected and replaced if required.
