Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: We had a deep snow storm last month and i got my 2001 mustang gt convertible stuck in the snow in my driveway. each time i tried to rock the vehicle back and forth to free it from the deep snow, the engine would power down. i finally realized that the "electronic traction control" was causing this. i turned it off and was able to free the vehicle. i think there is a connection between this and the brake problem i described before which caused me to hydro-plane and spin out in heavy rain. i wrote to you 12-24-03 with that complaint. *jb
