Car getting loose mid-corner with bumps
This has just started to become an issue, you can't really feel much at low speeds but at highway speeds it is actually becoming scary. Ideas, could it be something as simple as an alignment? Or would it be more of a tire rod, type of an issue?

Sounds like a blown strut or 2 to me. Does it bounce unevenly and starts to loose the back end? When i first got my SS the front left and rear right struts were toast and it was terrifying to take around turns.

Possibly a strut going. With it not being able to damp the spring adequately any more, a bump while the spring is already compressed some could be upsetting things.
So check your alignment and all that, but do check your struts as well.
