Recently it was raining and I stopped at a stop sign, upon proceeding I apparently gave way to much pressure on the gas pedal causing the front wheels to spin. The TRACS system was on, I never turn it off. I am under the impression that with the system engaged, if one wheel starts to spin the system sends the power to the other wheel. I know from experience with other cars that what usually happens is that the system will ignore the amount of pressure I'm applying to the gas pedal until the low traction situation is gone and then it will go back to normal. Upon asking the dealership about this, they said that the system is meant for stability control. Their example is that if I was traveling a bit fast in a turn and the car began to skid that the system would sense it and compensate by reducing power to the skidding wheel and apply the power to the wheel w/ more traction. This didn't seem right, but with this being my first Volvo I wasn't sure if the system worked differently. Anyone have any knowledge on this? Is the dealer just stringing me along?
