What year pathfinder and how many miles? The rear suspension changed 1995 from truck to unibody and again in 2005 to independent rear suspension back to truck frame again. Any loose things that can fall off and cause you to loose control is serious

I"m thinking a bad or broken shock. look at it and you will see if it's broken. does the steering seem bad when switching lanes as well? A lot of sway in the rear end? get this fixed as it is dangerous. I had a broken shock on my truck once...and it darn near put me into other traffic when passing...and on rough roads...man it bounced me all over the place. but I think you have a broken shock. could be the spring but doubtful

Its not the pump. The gases you are letting off behind you. Watch out for the fall out everybody.

Another possibility is it could be that your rear "Anti-Sway Bar" has worn out bushings, or worse yet broke lose on one end.

Check your shock absorber back there. I'll bet it's bad or you have a broken spring.

I'd have the shocks inspected. And yes, that's serious.
