I've owned my E since Feb and I've driven it in ice, snow, rain etc... with no issue.
Sunday morning my wife and I were heading off to VT for a few days and en route we wanted to call into an outlet mall. As I got onto the off-ramp the E lost all traction and the back end started to come around. I caught it but over corrected and ended up spinning the other way and we span straight off the road and across the grass median between us and the on coming on-ramp.
Apart from knocking the front driver's side tyre off the rim the car was fine and a local tyre place had us back on the road quite quickly but it was very strange that after 9 months of perfect driving the E was undone by what I can only assume was a wet, greasy off-ramp!
FYI I'm running Yokohama Geolanders.
