I suspect there is something wrong with the suspension system. It's
usually hard to find these type of problems since everything looks alright
when the vehicle is placed on a lift. Ask the service manager to have his
best mechanic take it on a test ride. If possible, go with him. Have him
take it around some 45 degree turns such as in a large empty parking lot.
You might find such a parking lot near the dealership ahead of time so you
will have a place to take the 45 degree turns. He may be able to figure
out the source of the problem.
