With all the other symptoms it sounds like the steering wheel position sensor and the yaw sensor are disagreeing and the car assumes it needs to correct. I still think the root cause is something more serious than the steering wheel/SWPS being out of adjustment. But I'm no expert.

That's what I'm thinking. Is the pic the issue now? If those threads slipped from the hit then that's what let go.
