“The contact owns a 1990 Chevrolet Astro. While driving 45 MPH, the contact quickly depressed the brake pedal to avoid a deer. The vehicle slowed down in the direction of oncoming traffic. When she depresses the brake pedal, the wheel bearings freeze and the vehicle steers into oncoming traffic. She took the vehicle to the dealer and was informed that the vehicle had been inspected and repaired. While at the dealer for new tires and an alignment, the contact was informed that the front passenger sway bar failed, and the vehicle should never have passed inspection. …”
