Description of the problem	On sept 9 2009, i was on my way to las vegas nevada in my 2009 toyota matrix sport and noticed when i exceeded alittle over the speed of 65 my car began to swerve side to side nearly looking like i'm about to side swipe the car in the next lane over.. And this is not the only time this has happened a few more times on my way to work. And i have taken my car to toyota and they kept on trying to convince me that i need new tires and i need alignment done, so really they didn't to anything for me my car is still new and i didn't need tires at all i still had alot of tire tread, and if you looked at the tires you would notice i was burning nothing but shoulder were going since i got it.

What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
