okay....wtf is up with my suspension

First I know my car needs rack+pinion/steering rack replaced ASAP.

I recently got new tires installed, hasn't been aligned(cuz im waiting to fix rack+pinion/steering rack)

I know my car is set up for a harsh ride, but it has never this been harsh/annoying.

When I am driving on the freeway, my car is bumping up and down a lot as well as I feel like my car steers into every crack/crevice on the freeway.

My question is... is it just because I need to replace my rack+pinion/steering rack that's causing this??? Or wtf?

Maybe rack....but sounds like your toe or caster is out of alignment

i had a similar problem with my car. when i would drive in the highway going 60+ ish and let go of the gas, the rear end would swing out violently.

it turned out to be the front inner tie rods.

thats just the issue with my car. installed new ones. got alignment. its all gone.
