It's as a result of either weak shocks absolver or the panel which the spring is resting on around the bottom is bending, broken and not straight.

It's obvious with Honda pilot

Many cars in Nigeria are accidented vehicles exported into Nigeria. In many instances, the monocoque is already compromised, hence the K-leg.

The rear suspension of Honda Pilot and CRV are designed to bend outward when they are heavily loaded, to give them balance.

It's called negative camber. It improves the stability. Negative camber could be intentional from factory or as a result of out of spec alignment.
