Rear end sliding in snow and rain at 20MPH

I have experienced the exact issue OP described in his thread. I had brand new Goodyear all seasons in the correct size all OEM vehicle and when I’m in rain, snow, or ice I experience what I would describe as a lack of control at all speeds…It feels like the wheels are fighting each other to get power and it sends the car off course just swaying back and fourth..Ive done front wheel bearings and am planning to replace the rears to rule out failure..If that is not the solution then I would have to say the 4WD in my 2017 explorer kind of sucks…Not even close to what the older Explorers brought to the table.
Welcome to the Forum. :wave:
I had a 2011 Limited and a 2017 Platinum and neither one had this issue. Have you had a 4-wheel alignment done recently? That seemed to cure the issue for some owners.
