Check your upper strut (front) and upper shock (rear) mounts.
They are made of rubber and will break over time.

Very easy to check the fronts - open the hood and look at the top of the strut while pushing the car up and down. Everything should move in unison.

For the rears, you will have to remove the trunk liner (sedan) or side panels to view the top mounts. Perform the same test while observing the upper mounts.

It will be very obvious if one is broken. The body will move up and down while the strut or shock will stay still.
