Abstract
A method and a device for stabilizing a vehicle having at least one wheel tending to spin, are provided. In response to the tendency to spin, a driver-independent braking intervention occurs in the at least one wheel. The engine torque is reduced if the driver-independent braking intervention has not resulted in stabilizing the vehicle.

10. A device for stabilizing a vehicle having an engine and a plurality of wheels, in response to at least one wheel tending to spin, comprising:
-
a reducing means for reducing the engine torque; and
a braking means for carrying out a driver-independent braking intervention;
wherein the driver-independent braking intervention occurs in the at least one wheel tending to spin, and wherein the engine torque is reduced only if the driver-independent braking intervention does not result in stabilization of the vehicle.
