All four wheels aligned both times. I will have the tie rod bushings examined. Tires are all new and same type. Replaced wheel is also the same as the one damaged, and same as the other three. After the skid, the dealership that examined the car could only find that the tires were inflated to uneven pressure and felt that could be why the car skid and was handling poorly on snow.

The ABS and TRACS OFF lights is another issue that I have to address, and members of this board, including yourself, have been active in responding on a separate thread.

Thanks for your post.
