Hey TINA PHILPOT,
Worn out suspension components are the most likely cause.
Also a loose wheel can cause this.
First thing to check is that your wheel nuts/bolts are tight.
After this you will need to check the rear suspension for play to find worn components.
Does it only knock over bumps?
Regards, `Joe
