Bump steer can refer to a steering geometry fault where the steering angle changes as the suspension moves up and down.
More commonly it is used to mean a change in direction of a car as it passes over a bumpy road, which can be caused by a number of factors including an over-stiff front anti-roll bar.

A horizontally-opposed or flat engine.
Strictly speaking, a boxer is a specific type of flat engine which has an individual crankpin for every conrod. A flat engine where each crankpin carries two conrods (as in the Porsche 917) is really a 180-degree V-engine.
