When I'm driving on the highway and hit bumps the car will swerve to the left and rock back and forth.

Good afternoon,

This sounds like the stabilizer link kits. If they wear out or break, it will allow the suspension to be unstable.

I attached a picture of the part below. To remove it, you need to release the nut on the top and on the bottom. Then the link can be removed.

Replace with a new link and torque the nuts to 22 pounds.
