Description of the problem	Traveling at reduced speeds on interstate, after passing an accident (wet conditions/rain), i found the car starting to lose traction with the road. I live in southern california with potentially troubled roadways, however this was interstate 15 in san diego, and within separated carpool lanes. As i continued on cautiously at roughly 60mph due to conditions and unsure of the first occurrence, i felt the car slip, and slide, the rear end starting to drift toward edge of lane, i removed my foot from gas and allowed car to regain traction. Was forced to crawl at roughly 45mph to feel safe again. A native of oregon where rain is a routine part of life, this occurrence falls beyond the realm of expected performance. The grand cherokee is one of the heaviest cars on the road, making this issue perplexing. At the time of occurrence southern california was experiencing moderate rain throughout the month dispelling much credit for oil accumulation on the roadways, as is usually indicated. When i came to think about the issue i remembered a few weeks prior on a wet roadway (not raining) as i accelerated from a red light my rear tires spun, and i had to release the gas to regain traction as well. The reason i am reporting is i brought this scary incident up to a friend who also owned a newer grand cherokee (2013), and was appalled to hear of similar occurrences. This has greatly diminished my trust in the vehicle. My own steps were to upgrade tires which are falken ziex s/tz05 side 285/40r22xl 110h, to yokohama of the same size, and report to dealer. However i am skeptical this would be a fix, as the falken tread (just 4,000miles into use) looks more than capable of dispersing water. With infrequent rain, it may be quite some time before conditions repeat themselves, and i would feel uncomfortable getting up to (again 60mph) moderate speeds.
