Tire squeal can be due to the surface of the road or driveway, but also low tire pressure. Not traction control. You would have to describe the conditions when this occurs. Low speed, high speed, wet, dry, etc. If start from stop may be too much pressure.

Thank you for your support
Actually i dont know which word in english can describe the situation
At the start the moving if you push more the accelator ,wheels will turn at the same place without going
So to avoid wasting the performance there is a system that i think its traction control and also sometimes the light is flashing for two or three times. In this situation the time to reach to 60mph will be 7 second instead of 6 second.
Hope can explain good.

That sounds like the traction control system is working perfectly fine. Its designed to reduce the wheel spin. If you are concerned about shaving off 1 sec off of 0-60. I think you bought the wrong car

From what you are describing, you are punching the accelerator from a stopped position, and the tires lose traction for a few seconds. This can be done in almost any car if one presses the accelerator too hard from a stopped position. In America, many years ago, this was called "laying rubber" referring to the tire rubber left on the ground from spinning the wheels. I would heartily recommend that you DO NOT press the accelerator as hard as you are doing in order to reach 60 MPH in 6 seconds vs. 7 seconds. Not only is it detrimental to your tires, but to your transmission as well. Lighten up on the accelerator when starting out and your tire squeal/traction problem will go away. You probably will also notice an improvement in fuel usage and not have to replace your brakes as often....
My problem is not the seconds or wining in races.
the problem is, sometimes you have to put more the accelator to have a good pickup to avoid some critical situation which now a days is not acceptable to hear some voices from tires.
i know that most of the famous car brands have a system to avoid tire spining without going ahead.
as i was thinking that system is traction control tried to find some soloution
for example in dodge charger there is one switch to avoid any wasting tire spin.

You can disable the traction control system on the ES. On US models, the button that allows you to do so is on the center console near the drive mode selector and near the shifter. On US models, the operation of that switch is explained on page 300 of the owner's manual.

Traction Control will prevent wheel/tire spin. However if you want more traction, get a high performance tire that has better grip and as wide as possible. You get more grip but you sacrifice fuel efficiency. Stock tires are design for comfort, quiet and efficiency.

Remember this is a front wheel drive model.
