Over the last month of so, I've noticed an increase in traction control activation/tire slippage coming out of tight turns when applying a fair amount of throttle. Slippage occurs in right or left turns, to the point where it's not unusual to smell burned rubber after a drive. I haven't changed my driving style, have always driven quickly, but not aggressively. Tire tread is fine, 16K miles but tires look just about new, pressures OK too (32 all 'round). Weather has gotten colder, but don't recall similar during last year's winter....anyone have any ideas?
