Is your stang stock or modded?
If its stock you shouldn't have to worry about gettin squirrely goin down the interstate, especially if I dont have to worry about that. All that sounds strange but Im not sure on what to tell you. It doesn't sound normal.

My car doesn't do that at highway speeds. the only time the traction control should come on is if you are loosing traction. Even supercharged I don't loose traction in 3rd gear unless I'm using the clutch to make it spin out.
Sounds like your TC might be buggin out and thinks your spinning tires when you aren't.

I would just turn it off, you'll be fine. I think it's suppose to be turned off anyway, unless it's snowing, or the roads are really wet. I never have mine on, even in the winter I had it turned off, so you shouldn't have any problems on the freeway.

i would just turn it off. i don't even use it in the rain or if it's just wet out. i don't like the idea of the car trying to drive itself if it loses traction. i can handle the car, but it's harder when it's trying to think for itself. i turned mine off with a tuner.

+1 on that. TC just isnt driver friendly if you know how to drive your car. |
