Today I experienced a problem when backing up. I began backing up and turning to the right. It felt as if the car was bouncing like it had an unbalanced or egg shaped wheel on the rear passenger side. Could it be a bent axle or something? Also, it only happen @ my g/f's apartment in that one parking spot and only when backing out of it. Any ideas?

if the only time you can get it to happen is on one spot of some driveway somewhere, the problem isn't with your car its with that section of pavement...

Mine does it when backing up too once in a while. But it's my control arm bushings binding up.

Is it considered normal or could this be a problem eventually? Read: should I get it fixed now under warranty?

Where are the bushings? At the end of the CA's?
