Rear Suspension Coil Springs problem

This car has only 54k miles! and is driven by a senior citizen lady, bought new, no crashes etc. 1. Abs and dtsc warning appears on dash. Car traveling about 25 mph and stops in middle of intersection, engine still running, will not move despite flooring accelerator. It's as thought the abs has applied the brakes and wont let the car move. Tap brakes, move shift to manual mode after not moving for about 30 seconds car frees up and drives normally but abs/dtsc lights still on. Went straight to dealer, which was nearby. Dealer says rear abs sensor is bad will order part. 2. Also informs me that the front coil spring has broken???. What? it's 54k miles!. . . It hasn't hit anything and she has never driven faster than 65 mph.
