Why does my car veer when I hit a bump?
My question is that while I'm driving when, I approach and hit a bump or dip in the road, my car veers to the left or right.

It seems as though the tire is loose or something.

Thanks for taking my question.

You should take your car to a trusted mechanic for a front-end alignment and full check out.

There are several possibilities here. There may be a tie rod or ball joint or several that are worn and have excessive play.

There could be a control arm that is loose.

One or both front wheels could need alignment.

This is a safety situation and you should have it checked by a mechanic that you trust.
