An engineer employed by a Big Three automaker is responsible for redesigning the steering system. While working on the new design, she discovers a defect in the steering system currently in production. After a thorough statistically analysis, she concludes that the defect might contribute to fatalities. She should:

Send an anonymous tip to the consumer "hot line" on a national radio network.

Continue to follow the company policy of selecting the most cost effective design.

Inform her supervisor and resign from the company if it does not implement a new design.

First inform the company of the defect and then notify the National Transportation Safety Board $($NTSB$)$ to initiate an inquiry.
