Check your rear sway bar end links. I bet one of them is broken. They will be behind the wheel under the car. And the sway bar is a small bar that runs from one side of the car to the other.

Default update

i went to one guy who installed a camber kit on the rear tire. the car isnt fishtailing anymore but you do feel a pull at times,

in the suspension the only thing they could find was the front right control arm was moving about a bit in its place, where it contacts the wheel
