Look under the car for corrosion or chafing on the rigid brake pipes near the rear axle.
Listen for knocks over speed bumps and ask about recent control-arm or anti-roll-bar work.
Check tread depth across the full width on all four; uneven wear suggests alignment or suspension issues.
Inspect the suspension carefully and ask the seller for repair history.
