Don't believe it's related to the KW HAS but this is based on the assumption that they were properly installed.

With that said, if the problem started happening after they were installed maybe there's an issue w/ the KW HAS or the installation.

I assume the installation has been properly inspected.

I've been on KW HAS for almost 3 years w/ zero issues.

I would have another shop take a look and get another opinion.

But what would be installed wrong the only thing
Would be if the car is too low in the rear but I’ve seen lower then me

If the only thing that's changed is the KW and all was well before that leads me to believe that maybe it's an issue with the springs or the installation.

Maybe there was any issue w/ axle or some other component that's been made worse by lowering the car.

I would have an indy shop check it out again.

Hopefully this resolves it.
