Any Suggestions? 2008 Mustang V6 Coupe rear clunk on corners

There is a loud clunk in the rear end on the passanger side whenever I take a corner fast...sometimes even when I turn at a lower speed but very rarely and not as loud. It occures in the first part of the turn and then again once I start straightng out. I only have 23K kms on it. We have made sure everything is tight in the suspansion and wheel. I am taking it in to the dealer to get it checked out but thought I would ask in case anyone has experianced or heard of this before. Thanks in advance for any input.

It could be a bad bushing in the lower control arm.

Check your rear sway bar. Mine made a clunk sound when I first put them on because they weren't tight enough.

Just make sure the car is doing that every time you come to a turn or out of a turn, or dealer will play games with you. You're best bet would be to bring the car in and take a tech for a drive and show them what it does and not have to depend on them to find it.
