Altima 2.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 81,000 miles

I have had this vehicle for 2 years and it had new tires on it when I bought it used-they have been inspected and found to be good. However, any time it rains or snows, it handles terribly and I slide around despite going very slow and putting it into low gear.

I slid into another vehicle this past weekend because I could not stop or turn despite going very slow and having 100 feet to react. Is this car just really light or is there some other structural component that makes it a poor performer on slick roads? Do you think winter tires would help alot?
