I highly doubt it is the reaxs doing that. It is a passive system, not active, and as such impements stabilty to corner, not throwing the car around.
How many miles on what type of tires? these may be a factor.
Have you checked you tire pressure lately? Its been very cold lately, so they may have changed a bit.
It sounds, really, like the front tire pressures are way off; which is allowing the tires to almost collapse during a maneuver. This would casue the rear to swing out gtrom the understeer.
FWIW, my 9-5 pressures get checked regularly (the SS sits for most of winter); during the last cold snap I added almost 5 lbs/tire!
